Mr Fox says

The Stone Power (SR:71, 9/4) is the highest-rated runner in the field at a competitive SR for this Class 5 heat, and crucially carries only 9-8 — a 2lb edge on top-rated Royal Bodyguard (SR:73) who is running off 9-6 but with a 67-day absence and a questionable going record (GoingFit:?). The Stone Power's DistFit:+ confirms genuine aptitude at this mile trip, and Ralph Beckett's 17% strike rate is the strongest trainer figure in the race. The form string of 3-374P has a pulled-up blot, but the horse was last seen just 12 days ago suggesting connections are happy to run again quickly — a positive signal on fitness — and the 9/4 market price reflects the field's respect for its ability even if there's a drift risk given the P in recent form. Each-way alternative: John Harrison. Main danger: John Harrison — John Harrison (SR:72, 3/1) carries the lightest weight in the field at 9-2, has Alan King's 14% strike rate behind him, and Luke Catton's 17% jockey strike rate is the best booking in the race — the 6lb weight pull over The Stone Power is a meaningful advantage over a flat mile on good ground.
