Bated Breath strengthened his Royal Ascot claims when scooping Listed honours in the sportingbet.com Stakes at Windsor.
Roger Charlton`s sprinter, who holds an entry in the Golden Jubilee Stakes, skipped clear by a length and three-quarters to readily account for Triple Aspect.
The Khalid Abdullah-owned four-year-old was a little keen early on, but was always near to the speed which was initiated by Libranno. Bated Breath joined the pace-setter two furlongs from home before fully asserting his authority, perhaps a little earlier than jockey Steve Drowne may have anticipated.
Libranno stayed on for third, another two lengths behind Charlton's accomplished 15-8 favourite.
