No Derby-start for Leo Wynn

LEO WYNN (DK) and Jeppe Juel (photo) unfortunately failed to qualify for the Danish Trotting Derby, but finished a respectable fifth after a solid performance.

Starting from post position 2, Leo Wynn had a good run positioned third in the outer line, while the heavy favorite, Look Like Gaagaa, took the lead early on and controlled the race to secure a comfortable victory in 1:14.3a/2500 meters.

Entering the final turn, he improved his position between other horses and briefly moved up to fourth place, but encountered some traffic issues approaching the finish line and had to settle for fifth place (DKK 3,000) in 14.6.

With a bit more luck during the decisive phase of the race, he might well have qualified for the Derby, but it was great to see Leo Wynn performing at his best despite all the challenges Jeppe Juel has faced.
