Xaar continues to shine.

Spirit Of Xaar ran another good race tonight (27/2/2013) over a mile, under the lights of Kempton.  Under Robert Havlin, he wasn't the quickest away from the stalls in the 14 strong field, but quickly progressed into a midfield position.  Turning into the straight he moved up into a challenging position and looked the likely winner, until the odds on favourite,who had been held up at the back, streaked down the outside to catch him in the final furlong and go on to win by a length and a quarter.  Xaar comfortably held onto second place.
