THE front-running Harris Tweed powered clear inside the final furlong to record victory in the hands of Liam Jones.
The William Haggas-trained five-year-old was made to battle by Allied Powers but he kept on relentlessly to score by five lengths.

Mission accomplished as Frankel's brother wins.

Quote:
FRANKEL'S little brother Noble Mission broke his maiden at the second attempt at Newbury on Saturday when he was pushed out to win the first division of the 1m three-year-old maiden.
Representing the same connections of trainer Sir Henry Cecil, jockey Tom Queally and owner Khalid Adbullah as superstar Frankel, Noble Mission was restricted to one run as a juvenile due to sore shins and immaturity in which he finished second.

Moonstone Magic dazzles in Guineas trial.

Newbury, Saturday
Dubai Duty Free Stakes (registered as the Fred Darling) (Group 3) 7f, 3yo fillies
Quote:
MOONSTONE MAGIC relished the conditions the give trainer Ralph Beckett a third success in this Qipco 1,000 Guineas trial.
The 7-2 shot saw off Radio Gaga with the pair pulling a long way clear from Beckett's other runner Electrelane, who took third spot.
The winner is not entered in the 1,000 Guineas but the runner-up is. Both came from the two lowest stalls.
