Report Batterie Tratta – 16 agosto 2024 (+ video)

This morning around 9 o’clock 5 batterie were driven in which 34 horses were tested. Criptha was medically declared unfit by veterinarians and was allowed to return home. Below images and report of each batteria. We expect, as always, that the assegnazione (allocation of the horses) will start around 13:00. More about this later.

26 BENITOS AA – ANTONIO FRANCESCO MULA
31 TABACCO – MICHEL PUTZU
5 ANDA E BOLA – SEBASTIANO MURTAS – vince scossa

Anda and Bola wins scosso the first batteria. We see a very unusual start where Anda e Bola, who give the start, hits the verrocchino and jockey Sebastiano Murtas falls. Good start of Comancio, ridden by Andrea Sanna who made the horse run in a strong gallop in a first round. We also see something of Dorotea Dimmonia, ridden by Enrico Bruschelli.

15 CASSIOX AA – MASSIMO COLUMBU
34 ZENIOS – MATTIA CHIAVASSA
13 TALE E QUALE – FEDERICO FABBRI

Again a scosso wins the batteria, this time it is Desiderata. In a lively batteria with a fast start we see Cassiox and Zenios start well. Michel Putzu fires Caveau. Then we see the fall of Giovanni Puddu of Desiderata. The horse continues and wins this second batteria.

Terza batteria
(numero di coscia, cavallo, fantino)
21 AKIDA – ENRICO BRUSCHELLI
27 CANARINU AA – NINO MANCA
16 COMPILATION AA – FEDERICO GUGLIELMI

22 ARDEGLINA – SALVATORE NIEDDU
29 BRIVIDO SARDO AA – GIUSEPPE ANGIOI
10 VERANU – ALESSANDRO CHITI

Good setup between the ropes. A start follows quickly. Compilation, ridden by Federico Guglielmi starts ahead of everyone, followed by Zentiles and Ardeglina. After three rounds of sustained gallop, Zentiles, ridden by Andrea Sanna, wins.

Quarta batteria
(numero di coscia, cavallo, fantino)
19 SUPERCHIOMA AA – MASSIMO COLUMBU
33 UNAMORE – ALESSANDRO CERSOSIMO – vince
11 CHIOSA VINCE AA – FEDERICO FABBRI
6 CORALLO SARDO AA – GIOVANNI PUDDU

30 VOLCAN DE BONORVA – SALVO CATALDO VICINO
24 VISO D’ANGELO – MICHEL PUTZU

Unamore, ridden by Alessandro Cersosimo, won the fourth batteria of the tratta. More confusion between the ropes than at the previous batteria. A good start by Chiosa Vince, followed by Unamore, who shows a nice gallop for a round, until Unamore takes the lead. Unamore does not give it up and wins the batteria. We also report that Salvo Vicino falls in the San Martino of Volcan del Bonorva, without consequences.

Quinta batteria
(numero di coscia, cavallo, fantino)
4 CARONTES AA – ANDREA SANNA – vince
23 DONRODRIGO AA – MICHEL PUTZU
12 DIOCLEZIANO AA – FEDERICO FABBRI
17 ARES ELCE – FEDERICO GUGLIELMI
18 REMOREX – MASSIMO COLUMBU
1 ZENIS – SEBASTIANO MURTAS

The fifth batterie had a lot going on. It was won by Carontes and Andrea Sanna. Especially at the start a lot happened. When leaving the town hall we see some unrest at Diocleziano. Jockey Federico Fabbri jumps off the horse to calm it down. The horse then calmly stands between the ropes. However, we see another fall over the rope; Don Rodrigo and jockey Michel Putzu fall, also in this case without consequences. The new mossiere Bircolotti gives a false start. During a new attempt Diocleziano and Federico Fabbri fall over the rope. Apart from that there is little to remember from this batteria.
