Mr Fox says

Celtic Chariot (SR:83, 13/8) is the class leader in this modest Class 5 field by a clear margin — 4 SR points ahead of the nearest rival Berlinetta (SR:79). The form string 366411 shows a sharp progressive arc, winning last time out and backed up by confirmed DistFit:+ and GoingFit:+ on today's good-to-firm ground at this exact trip. Course:W1P2 at Doncaster adds genuine specialist appeal, and Jack Mitchell (13% career strike rate, 895 runners) is a reliable booking. The MarkMv:+4 rise is modest and well within the horse's SR headroom over rivals. Each-way alternative: Berlinetta. Main danger: Berlinetta — Berlinetta (SR:79, 11/4) carries a favourable weight of 9-6, has a Mkt:in7% market move indicating support, and the recent form string 3-7551 shows a last-time-out win — if the unproven distance (DistFit:?) turns out to suit, she is well-placed to upstage Celtic Chariot on weight terms.
