    Paris magic and tradition keep the Arc in a class of its own above the latest gimmicks - AOL (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    When France-Galop announced in June that geldings will be allowed to run in the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe from 2027, there was an underlying sense that action was needed to maintain the race’s status as Europe’s showpiece event. The Arc was officially the World’s Best Horse Race in five of the seven years after the award was introduced in 2015, but has fallen short of rivals including the Japan Cup and the Breeders’ Cup Classic since 2021 at a time when several geldings, including the French-tra

    ‘I want to be seen as a bloody good trainer’: Gihan Arnolda’s journey from sleeping rough to beating Britain’s top stables - AOL (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    “It’s just unbelievable, isn’t it?” Gihan Arnolda says as he reflects on his first three months as a trainer: five winners from 33 runners, £50,000 prize money banked and a string that is, according to the much-respected Timeformoperation’s “run to form” statistic, outperforming every other Flat yard in Britain. But it could equally apply to the story of Arnolda’s journey from the east end of London to Cadland Cottage Stables at the bottom of Warren Hill in Newmarket. He was the first trainer of

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Ken Oliver, who has died at the age of 86, was the Guardian’s racing editor for many years until his retirement in 2004, at the end of a lifetime in racing journalism at publications including the London Evening News, the Sporting Life, the Sun, the London Daily News, the Sunday People – where he tipped as Larry Lynx – and as the editor of Ruff’s Guide to the Turf, the racing equivalent of Wisden.

    Andrew Balding making serious tilt at prestigious British Flat trainers’ crown - AOL (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The British Flat trainers’ championship winners’ club is among the most exclusive in the sport, with just a dozen new members through its doors in the past 50 years. Aidan O’Brien, John Gosden, Richard Hannon Jr and Charlie Appleby, meanwhile, are the only trainers to win a first title outright this century. Becoming the fifth seems to be the last thing on Andrew Balding’s mind, however, despite an exceptional week at York’s Ebor festival that took his prize-money total for the season past £7m,

    Constitution River gets immediate chance to fill Bow Echo void at York - AOL (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    There is a Bow Echo-shaped hole in the remainder of the 2026 Flat season, after the news last week that George Boughey’s unbeaten colt was retired to stud after suffering a training setback. The 2,000 Guineas winner exited the racing stage as the world’s top-rated three-year-old on a mark of 127, just 4lb behind the joint top-rated older horses, Ka Ying Rising and Ombudsman, and with the scope and untapped potential to match or exceed them before the end of the campaign. A void, though, can also
