Triumphal arch in Paris, France
The Arc de Triomphe de l'Étoile, often simply called the Arc de Triomphe, is one of the most famous monuments in Paris, France. It is located at the western end of the Champs-Élysées, at the centre of the Place Charles de Gaulle—formerly known as the "Place de l'Étoile"—named for the star-shaped configuration formed by the convergence of twelve radiating avenues. The monument is situated at the intersection of three arrondissements: the 16th, the 17th, and the 8th.

Daryz's final two runs of his three-year-old season were the Prix du Prince d'Orange and the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, where Daryz won by a head in front of Minnie Hauk.
