Quebee defies the maximum at Sandown

>>Quebee touched the maximum 1,000 in running on Betfair on her way to landing the Listed race at Sandown. The 16-1 shot was under pressure in behind early in the straight but stayed on well to deny easy-to-back 6-4 favourite Yorker, who hit 1.5.

>>More than £14,000 was matched on Dubara at 1.01 when she kicked clear of 4-9 hotpot Amabilis at Beverley, but she was joined on the line by the favourite, who stung backers of the leader, forcing a dead-head.

Amabilis had hit a high of 250 and was backed to 1.4 to get the verdict, but hadn’t done enough to pass her 5-2 market rival.
