When did a grey horse last win the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe?
Not too long ago – last year in fact!
Alpinista, a grey mare, stormed home to victory for British trainer Sir Mark Prescott.
The six-year-old beat out competition from Frankie Dettori’s Torquator Tasso.
“She’s does everything right, she made training easy, she’s got a little bit better every time,” Prescott said of Alpinista.
