Thank you Michael. auto_covert_lobs : I ran with all three possible values: True, False, and without supplying it. The results are the same.
The original query is a bit more complicated than the example I gave, and is built dynamically. But I am using sqlalchemy select, and not a plain string. Query is of object type "sqlalchemy.select.sql.selectable.Select" (Or "sqlalchemy.sql.expression.Select"?), if it helps. Here is what the query object value looks like: SELECT CAST(contract_id AS FLOAT) AS contract_id, cancel_dt AS cancel_dt, cancellation_obj AS cancellation_obj FROM contract_cancellation WHERE updated_ts BETWEEN :updated_ts_1 AND :updated_ts_2 Let me try calling value().
