Re: Horse Racing
Brilliant Treve the Arc heroine.

Quote:
Treve bounced back to her brilliant best to successfully defend her crown in the Qatar Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe at Longchamp.
Criquette Head-Maarek's filly was a stunning winner of Europe's premier middle-distance contest 12 months ago, but had endured a largely forgettable four-year-old campaign prior to her return to Paris.
However, with Thierry Jarnet in the saddle once again, Treve travelled powerfully into the straight towards the far rail and when the jockey pushed the button as the gap came, she showed her stunning acceleration to seal a fantastic victory.
