Ayr third Sunfyre is still unexposed in handicaps but Seagrave Fox and The Toff seem best on the all-weather. Fahari was well beaten on her previous start in a handicap but ran much better last time at Wolverhampton. A winner twice at Kempton this year under Alec Voikhansky, VASILISSA gets another chance back on Turf despite a 6lb rise, though the lightly-raced Starlight Nation could give her a run for her money if handling this surface.
