Horse Racing Buddha Triumphal Arch Award Japanese Horse Deirdre 8th Place Sottsass October 5th 0:16
The world's highest peak of horse racing, the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, was held in France on the 4th, and Deirdre, who ran from Japan, finished 8th.
The Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe is the world's premier race held in France at this time of year.
The 99th event was held on a 2,400-meter turf course at Longchamp Racecourse in the suburbs of Paris, with 11 horses from three countries running.
In the race that was held without spectators, the Japanese horse Deirdre, who won the Shuka Sho three years ago and won the overseas G1 race, entered the race.
Deirdre was late at the start and was forced to move backwards, and even from the final corner to the last straight line, he could not move forward and finished in 8th place.
The race was won by Sottsass of France.
On the other hand, Jockey Taketoyo, who was scheduled to run in Japan, an Irish horse, could not ride because Japan's run was canceled.
