Ayr third Victoire De Lyphar, a previous course and distance winner, must have a chance in this off bottom weight. Free Code found a nice turn of foot to score at Newcastle last month and that looks better form than Steel Train's win at Thirsk. Fray should strip fitter for her third at Ayr but her best form so far has come on ground with plenty of give. KHELMAN was just touched off by Fieldgunner Kirkup at Catterick last month and is only a pound higher than when scoring at Musselburgh in August. Richard Fahey's charge can go one better today.
