This was the Prix De Vincennes final for French class Premier trotters on a short distance of 2140m.

This final formed part of the 30th meeting of the season made up of eight races all for trotters and which included five finals for French trotters all on a short distance.

Eleven trotters lined up for the class Premier final. Favourite Ut De Dompierre (Michael Ellul) was the fastest horse at first and  led all the way to triumph easily by two lengths from Truscott Du Guepre (Rodney Gatt).
