So You Thinks goes for the Arc Aidan O'Brien has confirmed that the mighty So You Think will go for the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe at Longchamp on October 2. The New-Zealand bred superstar has transferred his Antipodean brilliance to Europe since moving to Ballydoyle over the winter, his campaign including victories in the Eclipse and Irish Champion Stakes. He had the Champion Stakes at Ascot on October 15 as an alternative engagement, but O'Brien says a trip to Paris is on the cards instead. He told Coolmore Stud's website: "So You Think is in great form and all being well with him, the plan is to run in the 'Arc' given reasonable ground conditions." The son of High Chaparral is the runaway leader in the older horses division of the latest Cartier Award standings and has closed to within four points of 2000 Guineas hero Frankel in the race to be the 21st Cartier Horse of the Year.
