The Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe meeting will be shown live in an extended three-hour broadcast on Sky Sports 2 on October 2, it was announced today.

Europe's premier middle-distance all-aged contest, for which the Roger Varian-trained Postponed heads the ante-post market, will also be broadcast on dedicated racing channels At The Races and Racing UK.

Eurosport is another broadcaster to take the race, which will be run at Chantilly with Longchamp being redeveloped. It was reported last month that Channel 4 had opted not to purchase the rights this year.
