It was Godolphin's Farhh winning Europe's richest 1-1/4 mile race, the 1,300,000 pound Championship Stakes edging out the French bred Cirrus Des Aigles with Kingsbarns finishing third. It was a clean sweep on the day as descendants of Northern Dancer took home over 3 million pounds finishing 1-2-3 in all 5 races.
