It&#8217;s a shame there aren&#8217;t more people here to see it. It&#8217;s magic and my friends are here, which is the main thing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It was a remarkable achievement with Marcialis not able to utilise the weight allowance female riders in France are awarded; the allowance isn\u2019t applicable in Group One races so she beat the boys fair and square.<\/p>\n<p>But Sunday was all about Enable and whether John Gosden\u2019s superstar mare could do the impossible and win a third Prix de l\u2019Arc de Triomphe.<\/p>\n<p>Much of the pre-race hype in the preceding days had talked of an impending showdown between <a href=\"https:\/\/www.colossusbets.com\/blog\/enable-vs-love\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Enable and Love<\/a>; but heavy rain in the days leading up to the race had turned the ground heavy, forcing Aidan O\u2019Brien to withdraw his 1000 Guineas and Epsom Oaks heroine Love from the race.<\/p>\n<p>There was further drama however when it emerged that a batch of contaminated feed had been discovered and, following tests the Ballydoyle maestro withdrew all his runners from the weekend\u2019s races meaning the likes of Mogul, Japan, Serpentine and Sovereign would all also miss out from their Prix de l\u2019Arc de Triomphe assignments against Enable.<\/p>\n<p>Their collective loss from the race left a gaping void in where the pace might fall and with an eleven-runner field the contest developed into a tactical contest with Persian King setting only a moderate gallop at the head of affairs.<\/p>\n<p>Enable\u2019s big race jockey Frankie Dettori had his mount in a good spot, tracking the leaders and seemingly travelling well despite the heavy ground. However the steady pace would prove her undoing as when Pierre Charles-Boudot injected some pace into the contest Enable couldn\u2019t muster a change of gear when it mattered in the conditions while she certainly wasn\u2019t helped by being squeezed for room and becoming the meat in a sandwich as rivals edged her out when making their runs for Prix de l\u2019Arc de Triomphe glory.<\/p>\n<p>The interference suffered bore no relevance to the result, with the superstar mare already beaten when it occured while Gosden\u2019s other runner, top-class stayer Stradivarius, was clearly unsuited by the heavy conditions.<\/p>\n<p>Nothing can be taken away from the winner, Sottsass, who ran an excellent race to better his third from the previous year and was immediately retired after the race to stand at stud. No decision though was taken on the future of Enable and afterwards trainer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.racingtv.com\/news\/no-immediate-decision-on-enable-future\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">John Gosden wouldn\u2019t be drawn on the issue<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Reported to have come out of the race well, she still holds entries for British Champions Day at Ascot where she features in both the Champion Fillies &amp; Mares\u2019 Stakes and in the Champion Stakes. But will she turn up for either?<\/p>\n<p>Her Longchamp run was the first time she has finished out of the places in her career, but given the circumstances she can\u2019t be harshly judged on that run and she still has plenty to offer. But she owes nothing to anyone having won 12 Group One races in three countries and, if retired, it would be a well-earned rest for the Nathaniel mare.<\/p>\n<p>But, given the circumstance of her defeat, perhaps connections might feel there\u2019s still an air of unfinished business surrounding Enable and the Prix de l\u2019Arc de Triomphe and might be tempted at one last crack at the race next season, following a similarly light campaign to the one she had this term.<\/p>\n<p>Age would not be on her side in such a quest. She\u2019d be a seven-year old next season and only one winner of the Arc has been a seven-year old in its\u2019 legacy, Motrico winning the race back in 1932; it is very much a race for a younger horse and since the turn of the century only two horses aged five or older have captured France\u2019s premier race &#8211; Marienbard in 2002 and Waldgeist in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>No-one would argue with Enable\u2019s connections should they elect to draw stumps on the career of the Nathaniel mare after their Longchamp defeat; she\u2019s earned her retirement with her string of top-class victories and we look forward to her progeny.<\/p>\n<p>It is perhaps the right thing to do given British Champions Day might just come too soon after those exertions in France although her adoring public would surely want her to go out on a high, drawing the curtain down on her career with a final win.<\/p>\n<p>We await the decision on Enable\u2019s future with bated breath.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You could earn up to \u00a3100 (or currency equivalent) in bonus funds by joining Colossus with our New Player Bonus.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.colossusbets.com\/?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=blog_unpaid_content&amp;utm_campaign=blog_newplayerbonus\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click here to join the action.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunday at Longchamp developed into a tale of two girls, although racing fans didn\u2019t get the result many had hoped for with Enable failing in her bid to become the first horse to win the coveted Prix de l\u2019Arc de Triomphe crown for a third time ended in defeat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":109,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[376],"tags":[272,1093],"class_list":["post-32807","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-racing","tag-featurehome","tag-prix-de-larc-de-triomphe"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v21.7 (Yoast SEO v27.8) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Could Prix de l&#039;Arc de Triomphe be the end for Enable? - Colossus Blog<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Enable failed in her bid to become the first horse to win the Prix de l&#039;Arc de Triomphe three times.
