Stars out on his own in Arc romp

SEA THE STARS joined the equine greats by becoming the first in history to complete the Guineas-Derby-Arc treble with a stunning victory in the Qatar Prix de’l Arc de Triomphe at Longchamp yesterday.

His sixth Group One of the season was achieved in the same imperious manner which has carried him through the year and John Oxx’s iconic horse overcame a troublesome race for a two-length triumph under the veteran Mick Kinane.

The 4-6 favourite was warmly clapped into the parade ring and out onto the track, where he broke from his stall and pulled fiercely in the early stages.
