That night Bazire was at Rome’s Tor di Valle racetrack where he won the $400,000 Gran Premio Tino Triossi with Igor Font which trotted at a 1:59.2 rate to score.
On Sunday afternoon Bazire was at the reins of L’amiral Mauzun when that horse set a new track record of 1:53.4 in winning the $250,000 Forus Open at Stavanger on the west coast of Norway.
