The Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe is one of the biggest races in the European calendar, won by countless top horses who are often champions and sometimes all-time greats.

Scintillating Derby winner Workforce took the race last year after the memorable triumph of Sea The Stars in 2009, while past winners of the Group 1 run at Longchamp include legends such as Dancing Brave and Sea-Bird. 

The card features a feast of top-class races with competitors from far and wide - a truly international flavour reflected by the crowds who flock from Britain and Ireland to the Bois de Boulogne.
