Group 1 winner Giavellotto will be ridden by Andrea Atzeni in the G1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe on October 5.The son of Mastercraftsman, who is trained by fellow Italian Marco Botti, won the G2 Yorkshire Cup under Atzeni in 2023. Successful in the G1 Hong Kong Vase in December, the six-year-old entire ran with credit to be fifth in the G1 Dubai Sheema Classic in April. Third in the G1 Coronation Cup in June, the Scuderia la Tesa and Vaibhav Shah-owned chestnut defeated likely Arc favourite Kalpana (Study Of Man) in the G3 September Stakes earlier this month.“He is a horse I've known from back home and I won a Group 2 on him,” Atzeni told the South China Morning Post. “I've ridden him a few times and it looks like he's going to race on good ground, which is why they've taken the chance.“By chance we race on the Saturday [in Hong Kong], so I'm able to be there for the Sunday, so it has worked out perfectly.“It's a quick turnaround but it's fine, we're all used to it. I'll ride here Saturday, get on the plane and arrive in Paris really early in the morning on Sunday, so it really is perfect.“He is a good horse, he was very impressive here in the [Hong Kong] Vase and he won the September Stakes the other day at Kempton, beating Kalpana, who is well fancied for the Arc.“It's a pretty open Arc and it's nice to hopefully be there. I think the declarations are on Tuesday, so getting spare rides will be tough, but I'd have gone there for Giavellotto alone, so that doesn't bother me.”The post Atzeni Booked For Giavellotto In The Arc appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
