The unbeaten Arc hero Ace Impact has been retired and will stand at Haras De Beaumont.

Ace Impact retained his perfect record by showing a sparkling turn of foot to land the 2023 Qatar Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe at Longchamp.

Europe’s middle-distance showpiece contest looks sure to be a cracker in Paris on Sunday as all fifteen have stood their ground at the final declaration stage.

The success of Ace Impact in the Group 1 Prix du Jockey Club and subsequent Group 2 Prix Guillaume d’Ornano win was a significant moment – both for the stallion career of sire Cracksman and the broodmare prospects of dam Absolutly Me.
