On the first Sunday in October can only mean one thing: Paris in the autumn for the Prix de l’Ac de Triomphe at Longchamp on October 1. Not content with staging Europe’s first Group 1 contest for horses racing middle distance, the French racing authorities have much to develop this day as a solid game bonanza next month Breeders’ Cup at Churchill Downs in Kentucky
And Arc, there will be five more Group One contest on a great race Sunday action fans. Knowing where to start a bettor is half the secret of success in a busy day and brilliant.
As always in the name of the French trainer Andre Fabre is a key point of departure to try to find the winner of the Arc. No coach has done very well for a big race success with the French champion five times since 1992, and as concerned as ever of the sixth arch in his recent correspondence.
Fabre provide a three-pronged attack on the prize this year by Hurricane Run last year’s Arc hero, which is definitely advertise again, but fought under par in the renewal of the King George Ascot in July. Maybe this time will be overshadowed by his talented stable companion Shirocco, which aims at Longchamp impressive throughout the season according to the link.
Becomes stronger and better with age, Shirocco be difficult to beat in the Arc especially if the land offered no give in her day Arc. Fabre’s other horse is at his best with legs cut off. The same would be true for the Japanese superstar Deep Impact, whose relations are absolutely determined to win the Arc. That this colt can overcome the high level of inadequate land, lack of preparation for the race and the transition to a European climate is debatable, but clearly it adds zest to a cracking competition.
The rest of the board five Arc team, which races are likely to respectfully take a beating worldwide Prix de l’Abbaye, at least during the trip the possibility of confrontation and Alexandrov Ouija Board for the Prix de l’Opera is a possibility delicious. Elsewhere, Andre Fabre is trying to improve its reputation as a leading French-based trainer for his three years of age, and in particular note. Fabre tend to subject the Prix du Cadran on Arc is every season, and leads the voice is significant.
It’s a quiet weekend after releasing the tension of Arc and Cambridgeshire weekend Ascot staging today’s meeting Prime Minister on October 7. As always, the sprinters before two years of the scene in the issues of Cornwallis and Willie Hagge educated attempt could be an interesting race this event 5f.
More from the University of York, one afternoon, traditionally insurmountable difficulties and delicate coral large field led by Sprint Trophy. Taking into account the results of a crash 6f this disadvantage is not surprising that the bookmakers are willing to sponsor these events. In the same letter two years to add some respectability to the proceedings courtesy of Rockingham’s at stake in the list and the Barry Hills-trained Captain Marvelous is the name not to be missed among the entries.
That the action of high society at Newmarket on Champions Day, October 14, with two contests of the head of Group 1 an afternoon of excellent action. Add to that the second stage of double fall for good measure, added Rockefeller, stakes and Darley Challenge and you have the recipe for a perfect day races.
When it comes to finding the winner of the Champion Stakes, in search of something fresh is not a bad policy. Most winners of the mile and a quarter of competition have not undergone the rigors of a long and difficult season. It is certainly very true of Derby Sir Percy and Henry Cecil Multi Dimensional improving fast but if these talented three-year increase down the colors of the older horses is an open question.
In Challenge Stakes, John Gosden sleeps India could prove difficult to win when Sir Gerard can Darley Stakes before heading out to Dubai and the sun. James Fanshawe-trained colt was sold to Sheikh Mohammed, and is almost certain that the next race season with the deep blue of Godolphin.
In the Dewhurst all eyes will be on Jim Bolger Teofilo should do what Group1 contest his last race of the season brilliant two years. This perspective would be great to have in the world to win, but in his absence, the Paul Cole-trained Strategic Prince could be the benefit. Not in the kind of Theophilus, but this was his goal for a successful model at Goodwood in early August.
action shifts to the main course in Newbury after the high-points in the day and John Gosden’s Champions Broghill could be the name of the note in October Yearling Stakes on Oct. 20, the first day of the two-day meeting of Newbury, which now includes Racing Post Trophy on October 21. Mick Channon hopes that Halicarnassus to build his great reputation, that the final Group 1 prize for young people and Aidan O’Brien is looking to build a clear record of his race and all the runners in his famous Ballydoyle operation.
On the same day as host of the Racing Post Trophy, Newbury also stages Horris Hill Stakes Jeremy Noseda and is ready for spring is primed to take the prize, while the St. Simon Stakes Geoff Wrage hopes can lose that Dragon Dancer the label of any girl. It seems scarcely credible that this type of frustration almost landed in the Derby back in June 1966 to 1.
The dying embers of the turf flat season 2006 shares the spoils at Newmarket on October 28, with jumps racing at Wetherby. On the first track is a valuable contribution to two years in the form of the Zetland Stakes and any runner Mark Johnston’s platoon must be heard here, while over at Wetherby Star Mohaison would look good if something begins its season in Charlie Hall Chase. Finally, some hunters up two miles be strutting their stuff in the William Hill Haldon Gold Cup at Exeter and the result of this quality, the price will be a pointer to the hierarchy between the two titans mile.
