It is 12:02 when the thirteen fillies of the second race enter the last corner at full speed this Sunday at La Capelle (Aisne). Well placed in the leading group, rope side, Fairy Fountain crosses his legs and rolls on the ground, taking in his fall many of his rivals who can not avoid it. The shock is violent. Sulkies and drivers give the impression of flying in the air. Summary of this pileup: six drivers on the ground. If Pierre Vercruysse, Francois Lecanu, Xavier Germis and Danny Brouwer are the least affected and get up quickly (the first two have also resumed the competition in the afternoon), Gabriel Pou Pou and Franck Demoutiez lie on the track a long moment. As soon as it was taken care of, it will finally be flown by helicopter around 1:30 pm to Amiens University Hospital. He would suffer a heavy head trauma, as revealed by our colleagues Aisne new
"I was lucky to fly"
Joined around 15 hours, the Spaniard Gabriel Pou Pou tells us: "I just had radios and a scanner, I feel good. I think I have nothing broken. I have a little pain in the left knee, with a sore, but it is superficial. I remember seeing the mare before me fall, but nothing after that. I saw the pictures again. My luck is to fly in fact. Also present in the race, the Italian driver Gabriele Gelormini avoided the fall of little. He says, "I saw everything that happened. Fortunately for me, I was off the peloton, which gave me time to avoid the pileup, but it came close. Besides, my sulky did not work so I had to put the foot down, but without falling. François Lecanu's mare ( Fée Fontaine ed) crossed his legs, hence his fall. It only lasted a few seconds. All the horses have returned to the stables, some with some wounds, but nothing serious according to our information
