Sea Moon ran out a hugely impressive winner of the Hardwicke Stakes at Royal Ascot for Sir Michael Stoute.
Sent off the 3-1 favourite, the colt showed an electric turn of foot at the two-furlong pole under Ryan Moore and burst clear of his field after Aiken had led them coming into the straight.
At the line the Khalid Abdullah-owned four-year-old had three and a quarter lengths in hand of Melbourne Cup winner Dunaden, who was hampered when making his challenge, with Red Cadeaux in third

Frankie Dettori claimed his second Royal Ascot winner of the week when Tha'ir struck in the Chesham Stakes.
Suitably inspired by his Gold Cup success aboard Colour Vision, the Italian maestro delivered the Saeed bin Suroor-trained colt with an inch-perfect challenge deep inside the final furlong.
Tha'ir (9-2) stayed sharp and true on the charge to the line, and had two and a quarter lengths in reserve of runner-up Cruck Realta, with Lovely Pass another neck away in third. The 2-1 favourite Move To Strike made late progress but was no match for the accomplished winner.
