The Hong Kong Jockey Club will simulcast for betting five races from the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe meeting to be held at ParisLongchamp Racecourse in France on Sunday, 6 October (1st race 10:05pm Hong Kong time).

The world’s finest middle-distance horses will once again gather for France’s annual autumn showpiece – the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe (G1 2400m for 3yo+ colts, fillies and mares).

Racing fans worldwide could be watching history in the making as superstar mare ENABLE attempts to become the only horse ever to win the Arc three times. The John Gosden-trained five-year-old is officially the highest-rated horse in the world and has not been beaten since her famous triumph last year, winning the Breeders’ Cup Turf, Eclipse, King George and Yorkshire Oaks.

Subject to change, the five races to be simulcast are:

S1-1     10:05 pm       Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe (G1 2400m for 3yo+ c, f&m)
S1-2     10:55 pm       Prix de l’Opera (G1 2000M for 3yo+ f&m)
