Chantilly Tiffany gets our vote from Lady Gloria and Sweet Lilly. The selection has a little to prove in relation to the other pair and, given last season's form, it's debateable how much improvement she can find from her debut so there are certainly concerns. She didn't really build on a good start to last year and has yet to race on ground described as soft but plenty of Pivotal's handle cut and, more importantly, improve with age. Her return to action was an encouraging effort and she is selected in the hope that she can build on that run. Lady Gloria signed off for last term with a win in a Listed race at Fontainebleau and looks to have her ideal conditions but her two latest wins have come over nine furlongs. Sweet Lilly is another with form over further but she beat Heaven Sent over a mile last September and rates as the one to beat in this contest but we're going to take her on with Chantilly Tiffany.
