Together aims for Coronation glory

Dual Guineas runner-up Together is looking for a deserved Group One victory in the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot today.

Aidan O'Brien's filly is likely to be favourite having finished second in both the English and Irish 1000 Guineas.

Ryan Moore rode the daughter of Galileo at the Curragh for the first time and will be back on board again.

She looked to have the Irish Classic in the bag before being swamped close home by stablemate Misty For Me.

"When she gets to the front she doesn't do much," said O'Brien.

"For a Galileo she has loads of speed, she gets a mile well but doesn't want to be in front too long.

"Ascot is a tough enough finish, but the Curragh is a long way up and when you start your run you have to keep going."

Jim Bolger won the race in 2008 with Lush Lashes and runs Claiomh Solais in this year's renewal.

"Her full sister (Gile Na Greine) was second in the Coronation last year," said Bolger.

"She ran a very good race in the Irish Guineas, she wasn't beaten far (two lengths) and she's an improver so we'll be expecting her to run well.

"She wouldn't want the ground too soft.

"In two months time I'd say she'll be right up there, but she's already knocking on the door."
