All international entry information, including the newly added French entries, is also available on the Equibase app.
Final entries from France will include data from all of the country’s major race courses, including Longchamp, which will host the prestigious Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe on Sunday, October 1.
“Horse racing is a global sport and we are excited to be able to make French entries available to our users just ahead of France’s biggest weekend of racing,” said Kyle McDoniel, president and chief operating officer for Equibase. “As North America’s official database for racing information, our website and app are natural platforms in which to offer data provided from across the world.”

The basic entry information includes program and post position numbers along with the horse name and weight carried, plus the trainer and jockey name, and the morning line odds. Similar to North American entries, international entry data remains available for seven days after each race day.
