#######################################
Last year's Arc runner-up Hernando
proved his well-being with an easy
victory in the Group Three Prix Gontaut
Biron at Deauville on Saturday.
John Hammond's pacemaker Agent Cooper
ensured a strong gallop in the 1m2f
event but faded at the home turn, at
which point Peter Chapple-Hyam's Erin
Bird took over at the head of affairs.
However Brent Thomson's mount had only
a brief spell in the lead before
Cash Asmussen brought Hernando with a
run through on the rail to beat Freedom
Cry by 1½L as Erin Bird faded late on.
