R ace Summary
In an open event the marginal preference is for QUEEN OLLY, who confirmed the promise that she displayed at Royal Ascot when chasing home two talented rivals in the Duchess Of Cambridge last time. The step up in trip is a slight concern for the daughter of No Nay Never, but she has the ability to be successful if seeing out the distance. Mottisfont and Fairy Cross are others with strong form claims, while Bright Diamond has to be of some interest following her impressive debut victory. Win: QUEEN OLLY Danger: Mottisfont
