Race preview
Despite having to give plenty of weight away to her rivals, it is difficult to oppose AYR OF ELEGANCE in her current form. She followed up a win at Stratford in July with a decent second under a penalty 11 days later, and a reproduction of either of those efforts should be good enough in this company. Topkapi Star looks most likely to follow the selection home if none the worse for taking a tumble here last month, while Misscarlett is fancied to finish ahead of Ten Gs.
