On the 4th (Sunday), 11 horses entered the Hippodrome de Longchamp in Paris (Shiba: Bad) in France, and the Arc de Triomphe prize (G1, Shiba 2400m) was carried out by Christian Demuro, a French Sottosasu stallion of 4 years. He won the championship with a time of 2: 39.30.
Insoop came in second and Persian King came in third, followed by fourth place Gold Trip and fifth place Ravia. Aiming for a third Triumphal Arch Award win for the first time in history, Enable was sixth and Diadora of Japan was eighth.
● Comments from Japanese horse officials after the race.
Eighth Diadora (Mitsuru Hashida)
“I walked around the Baba before the race to check it out. The rain had stopped, but the wind blew away the water on the surface, turning it into a clay-heavy slime that clings to my legs. I left it to the rider to carry it, I was able to run smoothly down the road and the response was good towards the last straight line, but what I couldn’t stretch was I couldn’t handle this terrain to ride. I think Diadora ran hard until the end. I think Japanese horses can take a little rain, but with this amount of rain, training and aptitude is required. Baba was a different kind of Baba from England. Thank you so much to all the fans for your warm support. “
(Judge J. Spencer)
“I was relaxed on the road and I am happy with his condition and career. However, the grass field at Paris Longchamp is deeper than any other racetrack, the ground seems to stick and I am trying to accelerate.” I didn’t continue when I did, and I think it was something I had never experienced before. I am grateful for the opportunity to race this time. “
