Sir Michael Stoute and Cheveley Park Stud have combined to win the last three renewals and the parties are represented by Strawberrydaquiri and Spacious but this looks set to go to SARISKA providing that there's sufficient ease in the ground. Michael Bell has stated that his Oaks winner is unlikely to take part if the rain misses Newmarket but she should be hard to beat granted her conditions. This is the shortest trip that she's tackled since the start of last year which is a slight worry but she had the speed to beat all bar two over a furlong further in the Champion Stakes and should cope. Strawberrydaquiri made giant strides last season and connections must be hopeful of picking up a Group race this season although cut in the ground may be a negative for her. Spacious has won on soft but her best form is on top of the ground and she's yet to win beyond a mile but still merits respect. Those three are clear on the figures from Moonlife but she was progressive when last seen but she's got her work cut out to get the better of Sariska.
