Mr Fox says

My Old Mate (SR 74, 8/11) is the clear standout in this Class 6 field, carrying a SR that dwarfs every rival — the next-best Creciente is SR 66, Karisma's Angel SR 58, and the rest are well below 60. The horse is course-proven (W1P2 at Windsor), confirmed at this distance (DistFit:+), and last-time-out winner in the same class, representing peak form. The market has steamed in 33% from the opening price, Billy Loughnane (19% career strike rate, 1710 runners — deeply experienced) takes the ride, and the Gary & Josh Moore yard runs at 13% which is acceptable for this class. The MarkMv:+5 is worth noting but a 5lb rise off a winning mark is entirely manageable given the SR superiority. Each-way alternative: Creciente. Main danger: Creciente — Creciente (SR 66, 4/1) ran 1-2 in last two starts at this class level, Oisin Murphy's 21% career strike rate is the best jockey stat in the field, and a GoingFit:~ on today's surface combined with a course placing (W0P1) means conditions are not unfamiliar — if My Old Mate fails to fire off a 5lb higher mark, Creciente is best-placed to capitalise.
