The Ryan Moore-Frankie Dettori week-long Royal Ascot battle got underway in style in the G1 Queen Anne S., with the former prevailing in a thrilling tussle on Circus Maximus (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}). Always prominent, the G1 St James’s Palace S. and G1 Prix du Moulin de Longchamp hero of 2019 was passed by Terebellum (Ire) (Sea the Stars {Ire}) 1 1/2 furlongs out but rallied to get the better of the filly in the shade of the post. Just a head separated the pair at the line, with Marie’s Diamond (Ire) (Footstepsinthesand {GB}) three lengths away in third.
