PRESS RELEASE

 LEXINGTON, KY—Equibase Company, the Thoroughbred industry’s official database, announced the addition of entries from France to the list of countries available within the international section of equibase.com.  All international entry information 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, Oct.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,” Equibase president and chief operating officer Kyly McDoniel said. “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.”

With the addition of France, Equibase now offers final entry information from 20 different countries. 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.
