Nannina was crowned champion three-year-old filly over a mile with a brilliant victory in the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot.

Pushed into the lead about two furlongs out by Jimmy Fortune, the John Gosden-trained daughter of Medicean stormed clear to run out a comfortable winner.

The 6-1 shot won by two lengths from Flashy Wings, with Nasheej three-quarters of a length away in third.
