All the Guineas ramifications following today's racing at Newbury

Muthabara drifted to [25.0] in-running on Betfair - with £1,600 matched at [22.0] alone - when looking to be treading water 2f out in the Dubai Duty Free Stakes at Newbury this afternoon.

But the 9-4 favourite picked up in great style in the final furlong to notch a comfortable 1 1/4 length win.

She has been matched at a high of [120.0] in Betfair's 1,000 Guineas ante-post market, but is now into [6.0] for the classic.

Paco Boy was very weak in the Betfair betting for the Greenham Stakes at Newbury today - hitting a pre-race high of [9.4] and returning a Betfair SP of 8.36 - but proved positive where it mattered in the race itself.

He traded at [22.0] in-running though, before asserting in the closing stages.
