Re: Horse Racing
World denied by Kizuna in Niel

Quote:
Kizuna just edged out Ruler Of The World in a tremendous finale involving two Derby winners in the Qatar Prix Niel, the first of the three Arc trials, at Longchamp.
It was Japanese Derby hero Kizuna who got the verdict on the nod over Epsom victor Ruler Of The World in a tight finish.
Despite having endured a troubled passage to the line, Ryan Moore brought the Aidan O'Brien-trained colt with a late run and there was just a whisker in it, with the Shozo Sasaki-trained Kizuna, ridden by Yutaka Take, getting the verdict by a short head in a photograph.
