The winner's performance boosts the form of the German 1,000 Guineas in which she was second to the Ralph Beckett-trained Electrelane.
Schiergen said: "Everybody thinks that Cherry Danon needs it soft, but that's not the case and she can go on any ground. She has kept on improving this year and we think that she is a specialist miler so shall keep her at this trip. However there are no suitable races coming up in Germany, so we might have to go abroad."
Quinn said Gooseberry Fool stumbled around the bend and lost interest after that.
