Strawberry Lolly could be the answer to this contest with Regal Quest and Princess Taylor appearing the dangers. The selection is a much more realistic betting proposition on the all-weather versus the turf and having ran much better than her finishing position at Kempton suggests, she could represent some value in a wide open contest. Regal Quest is another for whom the gaps will need to come at the right time. She has to be of interest now that she joins Stuart Williams from Sylvester Kirk. Princess Taylor has some fair turf form to her name but has to be taken on trust. Tanzanite is dropped in at a more realistic level, Lawyers Choice would have claims in a true run race and Labor Day is sure to have her supporters given that she hails from the John Gosden stable. A fair race under the circumstances and Strawberry Lolly is put up as our pick.
