Rail Link (Horse)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Rail Link (Foaled March 26, 2003) is a thoroughbred racehorse trained by André Fabre, and ridden by jockey Christophe Soumillon or Stéphane Pasquier for owner Khalid Abdullah. Unraced at two, he made an inauspicious start to his three year old career, unseating his rider on his debut, and then finishing second in a maiden race at Chantilly Racecourse. From then on he was undefeated in five races, winning the Prix Gouvernant, Prix du Lys, Grand Prix de Paris and Prix Niel. On October 1 2006 he won the 85th Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, defeating Pride, Deep Impact, Shirocco, and Hurricane Run. During the Winter of 2006-7, he suffered a tendon problem and was taken out of training. He was expected to return in the Summer of 2007, but the injury was too serious and he was retired from racing. He was sent to stud at Juddmonte Farms.
