Carmers collects in Queen's Vase for Paddy Twomey
Always to the fore in the hands of Billy Lee, Carmers took over from Shackleton rounding the home turn and answered his rider's every call to repel the staying-on pair of Furthur and Rahiebb, with three-quarters of a length the winning margin.

Term Of Endearment out for Lillie Langtry repeat
Having previously won twice at Group Three level, the six-year-old bagged this Group Two prize 12 months ago for Henry de Bromhead before being sold for 1.3 million guineas at Tattersalls in December. She has failed to add her tally since joining William Haggas for her new owner Zhang Yuesheng, but was only beaten a head by Scenic in the Bronte Cup at York on her penultimate start and was just over two lengths behind veteran stayer Coltrane in Sandown's Coral Marathon four weeks ago. 'She obviously won the race last year but we didn't have her then,' said Haggas. 'She seems fine, she's a nice filly and the drop of rain would suit her. 'It might have been good to firm when she won last year, but in our experience with her, she'd be suited by the drop of rain.' Term Of Endearment's rivals include Goodie Two Shoes, who has won her last three races for Joseph O'Brien and JP McManus, while John and Thady Gosden saddle both Sueno and Danielle and Owen Burrows sends out Waardah, winner of a Listed event at this track in early June. O'Brien said of his runner: 'It looks a nice race but we are a little worried about the rain so we'll be taking a watching brief on that, but she's in good shape and has prepared well for the race. 'Since coming back to the Flat she has really taken her form to another level over staying distances and we'll be trying to make her a Group Two winner after winning a Group Three last time.' Haggas also saddles the defending champion in the Group Three Coral Glorious Stakes in Al Aasy, as well as six-time winner Candleford. He added: 'Hopefully Al Aasy will run a good race in it again. He won it last year so we know he acts on the track, which is not always a given. 'Candleford won't run if it is soft, so it depends how soft it is.' In the same race Charlie Appleby is represented by one-time Classic contender Arabian Crown, who finished third behind stablemate El Cordobes in the Group Two Princess of Wales's Stakes at Newmarket on his first start since being gelded. Speaking on the Godolphin website, Appleby said: 'Arabian Crown put up a pleasing effort in the Princess of Wales's Stakes and came out of the race well. 'The ground was quick enough at Newmarket and he should enjoy the slower conditions here.'
