Gloriola

Mr Fox says

Gloriola (SR:58, 3/1, Wgt:9-3) is the only horse in this field combining a market steam of 13% with the lightest competitive weight, a jockey (Clifford Lee, 15% strike rate) who is one of the sharper claims in the field, and a trainer whose small yard (5%) is clearly sending this horse out primed given the money coming in. The moderate GoingFit:~ is a mild concern but at 9-3 she has a genuine weight advantage over Elashgar (9-7) and Starakova (9-8) who are both drifters. The recent form 0-0523 shows a horse finding its feet and the 13% market move since opening is the single most informative signal in this otherwise murky Class 6 contest. Each-way alternative: Alice's Influence. Main danger: Alice's Influence — Alice's Influence (SR:52, 9/1) holds the only DistFit:+ and GoingFit:+ combination in the field — proven at this course and distance on this going — and recent form 123434 shows consistent placed efforts; first-time blinkers (HG:b) could sharpen her response at a generous price.
