Roger Teal is ready to put Dancing Gemini's Lockinge heartbreak behind him in next month's Group 1 Queen Anne Stakes at Royal Ascot.

The four-year-old came within a neck of registering a first top-level success at the sixth time of asking at Newbury, but was pipped on the line by the John and Thady Gosden-trained Lead Artist.

Dancing Gemini posted a career-best Racing Post Rating of 122 in the Lockinge, after starting the season with victories in the Listed Doncaster Mile and Group 2 bet365 Mile at Sandown, and Teal is ready to take on the main players from Newbury once again in the Queen Anne at Royal Ascot on June 17.
