Re: Horse Racing
Kazeem might need more - Charlton

Al Kazeem is flying the flag for Britain in Sunday's Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe - but Roger Charlton's stable star was dealt a cruel blow at the draw when he was handed stall 18.
Statistics show a single-figure draw increases a runner's chances in Europe's premier middle-distance Flat race, although Orfevre was a close second from the same berth 12 months ago.
Earlier in the season Al Kazeem was the ante-post favourite for the race after Group One wins in the Tattersalls Gold Cup, the Prince Of Wales's Stakes and the Eclipse, but subsequent defeats at York and Leopardstown mean he is available at an each-way price.
