Shin Emperor Given A Big Chance In The Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe Market<\/strong><\/h2>\n

If the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe<\/strong> market is anything to go by with the best horse racing betting sites in the UK<\/a>, then the Japanese-trained Shin Emperor<\/strong> will have a massive chance of creating history in Sunday’s big Longchamp race.<\/p>\n

The 3 year-old colt is generally third best in the market – with only the French Derby winner Look De Vega and recent Prix Niel hero and current Arc favourite<\/a> Sosie ahead of him.<\/p>\n

Sunday’s Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe is a race that Japan likes to target each season, and with one of their best chances for a long time, you can expect millions of Far East horse racing<\/a> fans to be glued to their TV’s on Sunday night.<\/p>\n

Shin Emperor Last Seen Staying Well To Be Third In Irish Champion Stakes<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The position of Shin Emperor in the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe betting is largely down to two things.<\/p>\n

Firstly a staying on third in the Japan Derby at the end of May (watch below), which came over 1m4f.<\/p>\n

While having returned from a 111-day break Shin Emperor returned better than ever run third behind two of the best middle distance racehorses around at the moment – Auguste Rodin and Economics – in the Irish Champion Stakes (watch below).<\/p>\n

He was beaten only a length at the line and was again doing his best work at the finish over that 1m2f trip to suggest the step back up to 1m4f (Arc trip) will be right up his street.<\/p>\n

Having taken in that Irish Champion Stakes off a 111-day lay-off then he’s also expected to have improved for the run. This should make him spot-on for Sunday’s Arc.<\/p>\n
