Bluestocking Wins Record Seventh Prix de l'Arc

Bluestocking claimed victory in the Qatar Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, delivering a historic seventh win in the prestigious race for owner-breeders Juddmonte, trained by Ralph Beckett and ridden by Rossa Ryan. The four-year-old filly, who was supplemented for the race at a cost of £100,000 after her success in the Prix Vermeille, was well-placed throughout and finished strongly to fend off Aventure and secure the win. Beckett praised her extraordinary condition, noting the challenge of competing in multiple high-profile races before this victory. Ryan expressed disbelief at the win, emphasizing Bluestocking's remarkable contribution to his career. The win not only underscores Juddmonte's dominance in the race's history but also highlights the strategic decision to invest in the filly. This achievement is celebrated as a significant milestone for Beckett and his team.
