“I fear Japan,” Dettori added, “because he is a Juddmonte [International] winner that is also a three-year-old, so he will get weight from us. The Arc is really all about her, though. It would put the icing on the cake of her career and make her an immortal horse of our generation if it happens.”

Rooting for her of course, hope she can pull this off. She is racing against the best in the world so not easy task. Fabre's horse looks formidable--has raced in 6 countries.

Would love to see her win but nonetheless she has become an international
star . A mega Champion so win or lose she’s proven enough . I hope she gets some good pace and may they all stay safe !

I really hope Enable wins, she is a real superstar. However, it won't be easy and I think there is every chance she will be beaten and I am worried about the very soft going. This is a good field and I am going for Ghaiyyaath each way. Took 14/1 this morning. One of those occasions I've bet a horse but emotions overcome that and I hope another wins.
The Arc is the best race in the world and to win it three times will be fantastic. Come on Enable.
Over here the papers are full of it and it is being shown on main station network TV. It will be great for racings image if she wins.
Come on Enable.

Was rooting for the wonderful filly Enable to win but she did run well to finish 2nd. Hard to tell without sectional times but it appears she closed too early in the middle portion much like American Pharoah did in the Travers and was just short at the end. She is normally never outfinished. The winner, Waldgeist. ran well and got a great ride.
What a stallion Galileo was, he was the winner's sire and the 2nd horse's grandsire.

Yes the sectionals will be interesting. I will try and post them when sometime. Personally I felt she didn't really sparkle during the race and got found out in the heavy ground unable to put in that really devastating turn of foot.

Gutsy performance by Enable but it wasn’t meant to be; still great career and great horse. Hopefully, they are not serious about not retiring her. She has done enough and she should drop some nice foals.
