Another winner on the week for Billy Loughnane and George Boughey, as LIBERTANGO swoops home from the rear beat favourite Sun Goddess in the Albany.

4th	Emit	11/2

The crowd tried to lift the Royal runner Warrant Holder home. Suddenly, James McDonald produced ORGANISE along the rail, and William Haggas' star stormed home to spoil the Royal party.

Regal Ulixes flew home from the rear to finish third. Joseph O'Brien's pair of Emit and Omni Man were next across the line.

5:35pm King Edward VII Stakes Result

Position	Name	SP
1st	Causeway	11/10f
2nd	Ancient Egypt	9/1

Another thrilling battle down the home straight goes the way of Ballydoyle, as CAUSEWAY edges ahead of Ancient Egypt to land Ascot's version of the Derby.

The runner-up ran a cracking race, having finished down the field at Epsom two weeks ago. Water To Wine showed his inexperience with a third-place finish.

2nd	Sandal's Song	40/1

5th	Starmade	10/1

A welcome return to the Royal Ascot winners' enclosure for Wesley Ward, as BACIO blitzes his rivals in the card-closing five furlong handicap.

Sandal's Song defies a huge drift in the market to secure a 1-2 for the American raiders. Ten Carrat Harry places third, ahead of Calico Blue and Starmade.

12:00pm - Going Update

With a warm afternoon forecast, the ground remains on the quick side for day four of Royal Ascot.

The going remains GOOD TO FIRM on both the straight and round courses. Going stick readings from this morning have the centre and stand's side of the straight measuring at 8.9. The far side is only 8.3, so it's likely we'll see horses drawn high dominate for the fourth day in a row.
