Anny | 97 comments For book title, can we ignore the "The" from the title of the book?

Example:

S: The Secret Race: Inside the Hidden World of the Tour de France: Doping, Cover-ups, and Winning at All Costs

Is this okay?

Usually it is ok to disregard articles in this kind of challenge, but it's better to wait for an answer from a Mod :)
