Biography and Highlights:
|
|
- Born: March 5, 1952, started his racing career as an apprentice rider to Willy
Head, prior to moving on to Bernard Secly. Lellouche was a professional jockey for 10 years,
riding over 170 winners before taking out a trainer's license in 1978
- He currently has 150
horses in training at his yard in Chantilly, including many for the Wildenstein family with whom
he has had a long-standing connection
- Lellouche's first winner as a trainer came on July 10,
1979 with Springo at Saint-Cloud
- After a couple of years without top-level success Lellouche
made a major impact at that level in 2001. Helped by the decision of leading owner Daniel
Wildenstein to transfer 42 of his string from Andre Fabre to his yard, Lellouche wasted little
time in making full use of these top performers. Three-year-old filly Aquarelliste won the Group 1
Prix de Diane and Prix Vermeille befire running a highly creditable second to Sakhee in the Arc
- Lellouche continued to make the most of his Wildenstein connection in the 2002 season.
Aquarelliste won the Group 1 Prix Ganay and Group 2 Prix Foy, while Bright Sky won a pair of Group
1 events, the Prix de l'Opera on Arc day and the Prix de Diane (French Oaks) in June. She gave the
Lellouche/Wildenstein connection their second successive win in the race. Lellouche saddled 57
winners from 446 runners in France for prize money of 2,289,420 euros and fifth place in the
trainers' championship
- For a long time, 2003 looked like a barren year for Lellouche as far as
Group 1 successes were concerned. However, Westerner sprang a surprise in the Prix du Cadran at
Longchamp on October 5 to break the drought. Aquarelliste began the year with brilliant win in the
Prix Exbury but was retired after finishing down the field in the Dubai World Cup, while Super
Celebre's campaign finished early owing to a foot problem. Up to October 3, Lellouche was in sixth
place on the trainer's ladder with 32 wins from 213 horses and 1,645,395 euros in prize money.
