CHANTILLY, France -- The 6-1 shot Found won the Prix de lArc de Triomphe on Sunday, leading home a 1-2-3 for Irish trainer Aidan OBrien in one of Europes most prestigious flat races.Ridden by Ryan Moore, Found remained well positioned throughout and overhauled pacesetter Vedevani inside the final two furlongs and never looked like being caught at Chantilly.Weve had our eye on this for a long time, OBrien said. When Ryan rode (Found) as a two-year-old and said she could win an Arc, he was obviously right.Highland Reel, winner of the King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot this summer, was second and Order Of St George, ridden by Frankie Dettori, was third.Im so delighted for everyone. Its a big team effort, OBrien said. Its a privilege to be here and be part of it. How can you see anything higher (in his career) than this? I couldnt dream this would happen. You know how difficult the Arc is.The Roger Varian-trained Postponed was the 15-8 favorite and arrived unbeaten this campaign, but never challenged and finished fifth, while Japanese hope Makahiki was never in contention.Its a feeling of disappointment as we went in hoping we would win, but the main thing is we still have a horse to go to war with and we can take him home and see how he comes out of it, Varian said.replica jerseys china .Y. -- Paul Byron and Matt Stajan scored as the Calgary Flames started a five-game road trip with a 2-1 overtime win over the Buffalo Sabres on Saturday afternoon. cheap jerseys from china . - Chris Tierney snapped a tie with a power-play goal late in the third period as the London Knights rallied from a 3-0 deficit to beat the Erie Otters 5-3 in Ontario Hockey League action on Wednesday. https://www.chinajerseysreplica.us/ .

The Browns coaching search remains incomplete.RIO DE JANIERO -- Earlier this week, the members of the U.S. mens gymnastics team grabbed headlines for asking -- no, begging -- to be objectified for their incredible physiques. It was the only way, they joked, that they could tumble out of the enormous shadow cast by their female counterparts, the Final Five.Maybe [we could] compete with our shirts off, national champion Sam Mikulak said in an interview with the Wall Street Journal. People make fun of us for wearing tights. But if they saw how yoked we are, maybe that would make a difference.On Sunday, 25-year-old Alex Naddour found another way to steal attention for the mens team: by becoming the first American man in 32 years to win an Olympic medal on pommel horse.This is exactly what Ive wanted since I was a young kid, to go out and hit a routine and score the highest Ive ever scored [in a competition] outside the U.S., Naddour said. And to do it in the Olympic Games, it doesnt get much better than that.Naddours medal is the first in Rio for the U.S. mens gymansts, who finished a disappointing fifth in the team competition and off the podium in the all-around. Its been a recurring theme for the men since London: perform well during qualification, then crack when medals are on the line. Shortly before Naddours performance on pommel, he watched teammates Mikulak and Jacob Dalton, who qualified first and second on the floor exercise, make mistake after mistake and fall to sixth and eighth, respectively.Moments later, the performance of another U.S. teammate, Simone Biles, inspired Naddour to have the confidence to believe he could stick his routine, despite faltering on the apparatus during the team competition. As Naddour began his warm-up, Biles was on the medal stand receiving her record third gold medal of these Games.It was very inspiring, Naddour said of watching Biles become the first U.S. woman to win Olympic gold on vault. I used that. I heard our national anthem come on, stood up and said, Lets go. Lets keep this rolling. She started it off today, and Im starting it off for the rest of the guys who have finals. I believe in them.On Tuesday, the U.S. men have three more opportunities to leave Rio with medals. Mikulak and Danell Leyva qualified on high bar, and Leyva qualified on parallel bars. But while the U.S. women have the potential to leave Rio withh nine medals and are being lauded as a Dream Team, the overall performance of the mens program is begging the question, What next?For an answer, they should look the same direction Naddour did for inspiration: to the women.dddddddddddd Over the past 20 years, the U.S. womens gymnastics program has separated itself so far from the rest of the world that the next-best five-woman squad in the world likely could have been comprised of gymnasts the U.S. left at home.U.S. mens team coach Mark Williams has said he wants what the women have. He wasnt talking about their medals as much as their mettle, their unwavering confidence and ability to approach Olympic competition like any other day in the gym. They dont make excuses, dont betray injuries and dont blame one another when something goes wrong.After winning the all-around final and being asked if she feels pressure, three-time gold medalist Simone Biles said, No. When pressed on whether being second after two rotations affected her psyche going into beam, she reiterated her initial answer: Really, I dont feel pressure.Compare Biles response with Jacob Daltons comments after he finished eighth on floor on Sunday.Theres pressure. In qualifying, youre thinking about the team, and today is more about you, Dalton said. I compete better when I compete for the team. The Olympics is hard.That perspective shift is what Williams wishes he could instill in his guys. But its not like the womens recipe is a guarded secret. U.S. team head chef Martha Karolyi will write it down on a white index card for anyone who asks. Shed likely even come to your kitchen and teach you how to properly chop the celery.Without a doubt, womens programs around the world have been taking notes. At the 2015 world championships in Glasgow, Scotland, former Olympic gold medalist Bart Conner said he noticed a change in the type of gymnasts he saw representing countries such as Great Britain and China.They were stronger, more powerful than in the past, he said, noting that it was no accident. They were emulating the Americans, who utilize their strength to pack routines full of difficult skills in order to take advantage of the Code of Points.When will the mens team follow suit? ' ' '
