Aga team expect more to come from Behkabad

Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe favourite Behkabad is reported to be in rude health following his narrow victory in the Prix Niel at Longchamp on Sunday.

The Aga Khan’s colt was treading a familiar path in the recognised trial, with two of the owner’s previous four winners – Sinndar (2000) and Dalakhani (2003) - both landing the Niel en route to Arc glory.
