What had been billed as the most fascinating and complex Qatar Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe in some years was simply reduced to a one-horse show as Treve offered up a quite astonishing performance in Paris yesterday.

Criquette Head-Maarek insists that stall 15 will be “no problem” for Treve as the unbeaten filly bids to beat the statistics in tomorrow’s Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe (3.15) at Longchamp.

Ante-post favourite Orfevre has been drawn in stall eight for Sunday’s Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe, but British raider Al Kazeem will have to race widest of all after being drawn in 18.

Connections of Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe runners will need to brace themselves for potential rainfall close to Sunday’s race.

Orfevre sauntered to back-to-back victories in the Qatar Prix Foy with an impressive display in the Longchamp Group Two yesterday.
