MAJESTIC QUEEN was racing over 6f for the first time when landing the Group 3 Ballyogan Stakes at Leopardstown where she stayed on too strongly for the odds-on Joyeuse. She's probably better at this trip and can maintain her progress though Sparrow, who was beaten around three lengths, can get closer on 3lb better terms. Fourth-placed Seas Of Wells had every chance and looks held but Wannabe Better looks a big threat as she showed that this trip on fast ground is her optimum when landing a Leopardstown Group 3 last month. Exactement needs to find some improvement as does Tobann, who was seven lengths behind Wannabe Better at Naas in October though that was on soft ground and she ran a fine race when just failing to concede 25lb to Sparkle Factor in a handicap at the Curragh on Saturday.
