實夠威(Zarkava)「態況」評133分，僅次於機靈(Curlin)134分
Unbeaten Zarkava, the first female winner of the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe (Fr-I) since Urban Sea in 1993, has received a 133 Timeform rating off her stunning two-length triumph in the Oct. 5 race at Longchamp. The rating is the second-highest of the year.:gggg: Curlin, North America’s defending Horse of the Year, tops the list at 134.
The Arc, sponsored by Qatar, was Zarkava’s fifth win this year and seventh overall. Zarkava, an Irish-bred, races as a homebred for the Aga Khan.
