In racing, France and arguably Europe=s self-proclaimed >monument=, the Prix de l=Arc de Triomphe, emerged from a lengthy spell of planning and forethought into how the country could showcase its own talent in direct competition with its neighbours. With the hippodrome at Longchamp superseding the worn-out Champ de Mars circuit in 1857, the Societe d=Encouragement pour l=Amelioration des Races de Chevaux en France looked to provide some prizes to fit the new order. First up was the 1863 launch of the Grand Prix de Paris, serving as the Bois de Boulogne=s testing ground for the vainqueurs of the English Derby and the Prix du Jockey Club. Then, 30 years on, followed the Prix du Conseil Municipal which pitched the 3-year-olds against their elders. It was from that mile-and-a-half contest that the >Arc' as we know it now came to be. In 1920, with the people of Europe turning back to the great irrelevances that the devastation of Mogul is the latest Group 1 winner out of the the First World War had temporarily shelved, the Societe excellent producer Shastye | Scoop Dyga initiated the perfect weight-for-age examination.
