Re: Horse Racing

Frankel fails to scare off rivals.

Frankel will face 10 rivals when he puts his unbeaten record on the line in the Queen Anne Stakes in the opening race of Royal Ascot 2012 on Tuesday.

Sir Henry Cecil's colt has produced some stunning performances during his 10-race career to date and was ominously perhaps most impressive on his four-year-old debut in the Lockinge Stakes at Newbury.
Classic joy for Murtagh.

French 1000 Guineas heroine Beauty Parlour was denied a Classic double as the Johnny Murtagh-ridden Valyra ran out a shock winner of the Prix de Diane at Chantilly.

Although unbeaten in two previous starts, Jean-Claude Rouget's Valyra was allowed to start at 25-1 as seemingly the least fancied of three runners for the Aga Khan.
