WILSON-TAYLOR FLIES IN FOR GOLDEN MONKEY

Chad Schofield will give the $300,000 Group 1 Queen Elizabeth II Cup (1,800m) on Sept 7 a miss, but the connections have not taken long to find a replacement.

Block-booked for several feature race assignments on Golden Monkey in 2024, Schofield has already fulfilled five engagements.

The Sydney jockey made one of them count in the Group 3 Fortune Bowl (1,400m) in February, finishing in the money in the other four races, including a second in the Group 1 Lion City Cup (1,200m).

However, Schofield had to drop out this time. He was unable to free himself from some big-race engagements in Randwick on the same day.

"Chad rang me to say he had important riding commitments back home and could not make it for the QEII Cup," said Golden Monkey's trainer Tim Fitzsimmons.
