All past champions taking each other on. Gonna need a very wide track I know.

Ribot, Sea Bird, Mill Reef, Dancing Brace, Zarkava, Sea The Stars, Treve.
Or someone else.

Longchamp - Good/Soft

Who wins?

This could devide opinion.

Dancing Brave was a powerful horse and beat a good field, Sea The Stars did just enough,but he was as nimble as a ballet dancer the way that he burst through the gaps, to watch him is poetry in motion, Zarkava hugely impressive and not touched with the whip (always nice to see) a very hard call....But would just go with Sea The Stars, Dancing Brave, Zarkava.....and a special mention for Youmzain unluckiest horse never to have won it, but came 2nd to some of the best. :)

I miss peintre célebre and montjeu

Deep impact and Orefvre at the ir best would beat the fillies too.


The top 3 in order should be
Sea bird
Mill reef
Ribot
 
Given how Bill Williamson rode two Arc fields to sleep on Vaguely Noble and Levmoss I would bet on whatever he was riding ! P Eddery second and M J Kinane and O Peslier dead heating for 3rd !
Seriously
1 Sea Bird
2 Sea The Stars
3 Mill Reef
4 Ribot
5 Alleged
6 Vaguely Noble
 
The greatest Flat racehorse I ever saw was also the greatest Arc winner. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzXPXjUcOaA
There are a whole clutch of them that would fight out the places. My favourites among these would include Mill Reef, Dancing Brave, Peintre Celebre (who was extraordinary on the day) and Montjeu, in no particular order.
