More support for Meshasheer in Guineas

Ante-post gamble Meshasheer was backed again today for the Sagitta 2000 Guineas and is now 6-1 second favourite (from 10-1) for the Newmarket Classic with Coral.

He was a 33-1 chance four weeks ago but has been all the rage since then, while rumours have circulated about the wellbeing of former leading fancy and stable-comapnion Dubai Destination who has been removed from the betting.

Meshasheer, currently wintering in Dubai with the rest of the Godolphin team, won the July Stakes at Newmarket and finished third in the Prix Morny last year when trained by David Loder.

'The ante post confidence behind Meshasheer is overwhelming and suggests he is doing special things at home in Dubai,' said Coral spokesman Simon Clare.

Coral betting: 3-1 Hawk Wing, 6-1 Meshasheer (10-1), 7-1 Rock Of Gibraltar, 12-1 Tendulkar, 14-1 Waldenburg, 16-1 Landseer, 25-1 bar.
