Who Won

> Soltikoff, a 40-1 long shot: the $231,000 Arc de Triomphe, France's richest horse race, run over Longchamps' egg-shaped 1 1/2-mi. grass course. Finishing a dismal tenth was the U.S. Cinderella horse Carry Back, given what Owner Jack Price and other observers (including ex-Jockey Eddie Arcaro) called a "stupid" ride by Australia's Scobie Breasley. "Two hours before post time, Breasley was still in the dining room, having a hearty lunch and sipping champagne," said Price angrily. "At the eighth pole--where ,Carry Back usually makes his best run--it looked like Breasley's efforts at the luncheon table were beginning to tell. He stopped riding." Price challenged the Arc's first five finishers to a winner-take-all rematch, with each owner backing his entry with $25,000 in cash.

-- Jimmy Clark, 26, a Scottish farmer who took his first turn at the wheel of a Grand Prix racer only two years ago: the U.S. Grand Prix at Watkins Glen, N.Y., by the margin of 15 sec. over Britain's Graham Hill (TiME, Sept. 28). In a hurry to get home and "get the feed in for the winter," Clark gunned his low-slung V-8 Lotus into the lead at the start, set a new lap record (110.4 m.p.h.), and stubbornly fought off Hill--despite a clutch that failed midway through the 230-mi. contest. Runner-up to Hill in the duel for the Grand Prix driving championship, Clark needs a victory in next month's South African Grand Prix to win.
