Mise En Scene scores in the Tote Prestige Stakes Goodwood . Andrew Nelis racing

  Mise En Scene maintained her unbeaten record and provided trainer James Ferguson with the first Group-race success of his career in the tote Prestige Stakes at Goodwood. Impressive when winning by four lengths on her debut at Haydock, she was sent off a 7-1 chance in a strong-looking Group Three. When the favourite Daneh took two lengths out of the field at the furlong marker, it appeared James Doyle had made a race-winning move as all her rivals looked in trouble.                   Andrew Nelis racing 

James Doyle Buick and Adam Kirby set for mounts on Obriens charges Andrew Nelis

William Buick, James Doyle and Adam Kirby are in the frame to pick up Investec Derby rides for Aidan O'Brien's powerful squad. While Ryan Moore will get first pick of the Ballydoyle challengers, there could be some potentially top-class spare rides available as coronavirus quarantine measures mean the likes of Seamus Heffernan may be unlikely to travel to Britain. O'Brien has three Derby entries with similar chances according to the bookmakers in Mogul, Royal Ascot winner Russian Emperor and Irish Guineas runner-up Vatican City.

Mountain Angel pounces to beat the field at Ascot Andrew Nelis Racing

Roger Varian and James Doyle teamed up to win the Wolferton Stakes at Royal Ascot in fine style with Mountain Angel. Fifth in the race to subsequent Group One hero Addeybb 12 months ago, Mountain Angel enjoyed a dream run up the inside to win in clear-cut fashion. Prince Eiji - a stablemate of the 8-1 winner - appeared to have them all on the stretch at one stage, but Doyle waited for a gap to appear on the rail and when he did he took full advantage.  

Lord North prevails in the Prince of wales stakes Ascot Andrew Nelis racing

Lord North  produced a devastating turn of foot to run out a convincing winner of the Prince of Wales’s Stakes at Royal Ascot. Stepping up to Group One company for the first time, last year’s Cambridgeshire winner bridged the gap in some style. John Gosden ’s charge had looked good when winning the Group Three Brigadier Gerard Stakes at Haydock earlier this month – but this was even better as he destroyed a quality field. Bangkok  made the running with  Addeybb  and  Japan  close up, while  James Doyle  was happy to sit Lord North (5-1) at the rear of the seven runners..
