Re: Horse Racing
SO EASY FOR SENSATIONAL FRANKEL.

Quote:
Frankel extended his unbeaten record to 12 with another awesome performance in the Qipco Sussex Stakes at Glorious Goodwood.
Following his 11-length demolition job in the Queen Anne Stakes at Royal Ascot, the world's highest-rated racehorse faced just three rivals as he defended his Goodwood crown, including his pacemaker Bullet Train.
The latter predictably cut out the early running, but Tom Queally was never too far behind on Frankel in second and the 1-20 favourite eased to the front with a couple of furlongs to travel. The result was never in doubt thereafter as Sir Henry Cecil's incredible four-year-old engaged top gear to pull right away in the closing stages.
