J-P Gauvin

Other Trainers

Jean-Pierre Gauvin
Age: 60
Background:
The provincial trainer took Chantilly by storm when his bargain buy Saonois, whom he owns in partnership with baker Pascal Treyve, won the 2012 Prix du Jockey Club with jockey Antoine Hamelin. The pair had bought the colt for the equivalent of about HK$80,000 and Gauvin saddled him three times in minor grade before he broke his duck in a claimer. They reportedly turned down €7 million for the horse from a Qatari Sheikh after his Group 1 win and Gauvin then sent him to Longchamp to win the G2 Prix Niel. Saonois also ran at Sha Tin in the 2012 Hong Kong Cup with Hamelin, finishing tenth. Gauvin has now amassed 846 wins as a trainer and Prix Ganay victor Iresine is among his current stable stars.
