Highly competitive but it could pay to take a chance on FANTASTIC FOX who was only a length behind subsequent All-Weather Finals' winner Storm Star here earlier in the year. He might be able to capitalise on a falling mark, with improving mare Unassuming feared most on the back of a career best, while Nikovo has a fine record at this track and could bounce back with sights lowered.
