Frankel extends unbeaten run at Newbury

Frankel shrugged off an early-season injury scare and confirmed himself as the best racehorse in the world with a typically explosive display in the JLT Lockinge Stakes at Newbury this afternoon.

Henry Cecil's freakishly talented four-year-old was bidding to maintain his unbeaten record, and clocked up a perfect 10 under Tom Queally as the 2-7 favourite beat old foe Excelebration by five lengths.
