Sea The Stars, ridden by Mick Kinane, swept to a majestic victory in the Prix de L’Arc de Triomphe in Paris yesterday to be crowned Europe’s champion racehorse. Sea The Stars (no.18) threaded his way to the front up the Longchamp straight to take the lead with 150 metres to go and held on comfortably from Youmzain, the mount of Kieren Fallon. It was the third year in a row that Youmzain, trained by former England football international Mick Channon, had finished runner-up. Third place in the 19-strong field went to Cavalryman, the mount of Frankie Dettori.
