Sheikh Rashid Dalmook Al Maktoum’s Move Swiftly (GB) (Farhh {GB}) stepped out of handicap company to run second in Lingfield’s Nov. 1 Listed Fleur de Lys S. and made giant strides to plunder Wednesday’s G2 Duke of Cambridge S. at Royal Ascot in her first start of 2019. The 9-1 chance was steadied at the break to race at the tail of the field as Nyaleti (Arch) set the tempo. Still last with three furlongs remaining, she made smooth progress into contention at the quarter-mile marker and kept on resolutely under a drive once launching her challenge entering the final furlong to swoop for a career high in the dying strides, denying Rawdaa (GB) (Teofilo {Ire}) by a neck. I Can Fly (GB) (Fastnet Rock {Aus}), who started as the 7-2 favourite despite carrying a three-pound penalty for winning last term’s G2 Solonaway S., also threatened inside the final quarter mile and was best of the rest 1 3/4 lengths adrift.
