Mr Fox says

Enamored carries the highest SR in the field at 156 — a clear 7-point advantage over Red Tail (SR 149) and 13 points over Little Mester (SR 148) — and does so off the lightest weight among the leading trio at 9-2, giving a genuine lbs edge over both rivals. The form figures of 3-5 in a maiden show a horse building toward a win rather than regressing, and Ed Dunlop's 12% strike rate with David Probert aboard is a competent partnership at this level. The 6% drift is a mild concern and worth monitoring, but the SR dominance and weight advantage justify siding with Enamored as the most capable horse in a small, modest field. Each-way alternative: Red Tail. Main danger: Red Tail — Red Tail (SR 149, 11/4) is a debutant from the Richard Hannon yard — a powerful operation with a strong record of winning first time out — and the four-star probability rating combined with a competitive price suggests the market respects its chance; an unexposed horse with unknown ceiling could easily outrun Enamored's form figures on debut.
