This was a fair performance from DRESSED TO DANCE, who came from last to first to grab the spoils. She is in grand form and due to go up a couple of pounds at the weekend. She could turn out again at Windsor on Saturday under a penalty, where she will take all the beating as long as the ground stays on top as she does not handle and cut.
Loyal Royal come from a yard struggling to fine their form, but this was a slightly more promising effort.
Alfresco seems better on the sand as he could not take advantage of a lenient looking mark on turf.
