ロワイヤルオーク賞
In October, Mon Talisman was matched against older horses for the first time when he contested the eighth running of the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe over 2400 metres at Longchamp. Ridden by Semblat, he started the 2.4/1 favourite in a ten-runner field. He won by two lengths from Nino (twice winner of the Prix du Président de la République), with two and a half lengths back to Felton in third. On his final appearance of the season, Mon Talisman finished second to Fiterari in the Prix Royal-Oak.
