Verdict
An interesting contest. David Loder runs the Gone West filly, Fiaafy. Cool Question has won two from two, has penalties to concede but is well regarded. Major Speculation won on Lingfield's AW surface last time but might find this a different proposition. Summer Passion represents Barry Hills but might appreciate another furlong. Cool Question might well be good enough to bring up the hat-trick.
