WALDGEIST finishes Fourth in G1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe

A wide draw, top weight, almost no room to run in the final stretch certainly did not work in WALDGEIST's favour in Europe's most prestigious horse race, the 5 Mio € G1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, but still the colt finished with an excellent fourth place. Pierre-Charles Boudot was forced to settle WALDGEIST in the far back of a 19 strong field and found little room to send the four-year-old fully charging once the field left the home turn. Thanks to a tremendous late charge, the stewards saw the colt crossing the wire at the 2400 m mark only one and a half lengths behind the winner Enable.
