France Galop, QREC announce partnership for Prix du Jockey Club
The Peninsula, 22 May 2021
Doha: France Galop and Qatar Racing & Equestrian Club (QREC) yesterday announced a partnership agreement for the Prix du Jockey Club in 2021 and 2022. QREC, already a partner of the weekend of Qatar Prix de l Arc de Triomphe since 2008, will now also be associated to the French Derby, the Qatar Prix du Jockey Club, which will be run on June 6 at Chantilly racecourse.
The Qatar Prix du Jockey Club, with a distance of 2,100 meters, is the culmination of a selection process, but also a springboard to the biggest events on the international calendar, as evidenced by the latest renewals’ winners Mishriff and Sottsass. With €1.5m in allowances (including €857,000 for the winner), the Qatar Prix du Jockey Club is the most richly endowed event in the French program after the Qatar Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe.
