Mr Fox says

Caph Star (SR:76, 5/1) shares the top SR in the field alongside Fast Fred and Arrange, but carries the second-lightest weight of that trio at 11-1 — a meaningful lb advantage over Fast Fred (11-2) — and crucially has steamed 36% in the market, the strongest inward move in the race. The trainer Mark Rimell booking his own conditional Mr Harry Rimell suggests stable confidence rather than a lesser spare ride, and GoingFit:~ on good ground is workable rather than a genuine negative. GoingFit:- for the joint-favourite Arrange is a concrete concern over 1m6f on good, and Arrange's form string of 3-0622 is inconsistent. Caph Star's MarkMv:+6 is modest enough not to be a burden at this class level, and the aggressive market move is the decisive differentiator at 5/1. Each-way alternative: Arrange. Main danger: Arrange — Arrange (SR:76, 5/2) shares the top SR, carries the lightest weight of the three SR:76 runners at 10-10, has shortened 17% in the market, and the amateur jockey Mr Eireann Cagney posts a 23% career strike rate from 31 rides — comfortably the strongest jockey record in the field — though the GoingFit:- flag on good ground is the genuine caveat to follow.
