Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe
Sunday 01 October 2006
Information and prices
The ‘Arc’, held at the famous Longchamp Racecourse
in Paris, is Europe’s richest race bringing together the
classic winners from England, Ireland, France, Germany and Italy in
one race. This, combined with the sights of Paris, makes a weekend
in the autumn of 2006 a very attractive proposition.
The first Sunday in October is an outstanding day of flat racing
featuring the world’s top runners, and crowned by the “Prix de
l’Arc de Triomphe Lucien Barrière”. Effectively the world
championship of flat racing, it brings together the winners of the
Derby races at Epsom, and in Ireland, Italy and Germany. The
season’s fastest runners race flat out over a distance of 2400
metres. The race’s honours board is one of the most fascinating in
the racing world. It features legends of the Arc from 1920, when it
was first run in celebration of the Allies’ victory in the First
World War.
