Godolphin’s 2001 Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe Winner Sakhee Comes Out Top, According To The Racing Post

With a Racing Post Rating of 134, when he won the 2001 Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe, Godolphin’s Sakhee is the top-rated Longchamp winner since the turn of the century.

Sakhee, who was trained by Saeed Bin Suroor, was one of three winners for the stable for far, with Lammtarra (1995) and Marienbard (2002) the others.

While Sakhee’s Arc win was also the second (at the time) for top horse racing jockey Frankie Dettori, who has won the race six times over the years and more than any other jockey in the history of the race.

Before winning the 2001 Arc, Sakhee destroyed a decent field in the Juddmonte International Stakes by seven lengths.

In total, Sakhee raced 14 times in his career – winning eight times and only finishing out of the top three twice. He also won over £2m in total prize money.
