Racing: Oaks heroine Look Here had emerged as a surprise possible contender for the Arc earlier in the week but she will not be supplemented for the race. Trainer Ralph Beckett was not totally satisfied with a blood sample taken ahead of the Group One feature and has ruled out a trip to France.

He said: "Look Here will not be supplemented for the race. We had to run all the tests on her and we were not happy with her blood sample.

"She looks fantastic and we have been happy with her work but you have got to be in top order for a race like the Arc so she will not run at the weekend."

Although Look Here holds an entry in the Group Two Pride Stakes at Newmarket on October 18th, the daughter of Hernando could now be finished for the season.

Beckett added: "It is unlikely she will run again this year. She is entered at Newmarket so that is a possibility but I would say it is less than likely."

There were no surprises at the supplementary stage with German Derby winner Kamsin confirmed as the only addition to the field.

The Aidan O'Brien-trained duo of Septimus and King Of Rome were taken out, leaving Duke Of Marmalade and Soldier Of Fortune to spearhead the Ballydoyle attack.

Hot favourite Zarkava stands her ground while outsider Normen was the other horse removed from the race, leaving 17 possibles before tomorrow's final declaration stage.
