Valixer has Rakti on rack
14/06/2005 - 16:25:51Valixir upset the odds-on Rakti to take the Queen Anne Stakes at Royal Ascot at York this afternoon.
The Aga Khan’s four-year-old, ridden by Christophe Soumillon and trained in France by Andre Fabre, powered past the favourite at the two-furlong marker.
Although Rakti tried to rally, Valixir (4-1) proved a length and a half too good. Starcraft was another half a length away in third.
