Champs Elysees (foaled March 21, 2003 in England) is a retired Thoroughbred racehorse who has competed successfully in Europe and North America.
Raced at age three from a base in France, Champs Elysees had his best results in Conditions races with a second in the Prix Daphnis and the Prix du Prince d'Orange. At age four, he won the 2007 Prix d'Hedouville at Longchamp Racecourse in Paris and late in the year was sent to race in North America. He won important stakes races in 2008 including the Grade 1 Hollywood Turf Cup Stakes, and capped off his career with his most important win ever in the October 17, 2009 Canadian International Stakes at Woodbine Racetrack in Toronto.
Retired from racing, Champs Elysees is scheduled to stand at stud beginning with the 2010 season at Banstead Manor Stud in Suffolk, England.
Among his first crop of foals is the Ascot Gold Cup winner Trip To Paris.
