Arc de Triomphe purse doubles

[saratogabrit]

I have a feeling that an increase in Breeders' Cup purses will be announced to the main races-I think this was going to happen anyway and that Longchamp launched a pre-emptive strike to raise theirs before the BC.

I think that Dubai will also raise their 3 big race purses to make sure they are bigger that the World Cup is No 1 and that the 2 Turf Races are at least the richest in the world and possibly more than the BC Classic.

These increases will probably ensure that Cigar's record goes and that the $10 Million barrier is breached.
