Mr Fox’s call
Lightning Glory
SPECULATIVE Advised 9/4 SP 100/30 Est. 35%
Mr Fox says
Lightning Glory (SR:85, 9/4) is the highest-rated runner in the field and carries a relatively light 9-9, giving her a 3lb advantage over Stormy Music despite matching her on SR within a few points. Her DistFit:+ at today's mile confirms she handles the trip well, and the Crisford yard operates at a 20% strike rate from 340 runners — a powerful, data-backed operation that hits consistently at this level. Her recent form 434232 shows consistent engagement in the finish; she has not won lately but has been placed in every recent outing, suggesting she is close to a deserved victory. De Sousa at 13% career strike rate adds a reliable pilot, and there is no damaging market drift to concern us. Each-way alternative: Stormy Music. Main danger: Stormy Music — Stormy Music (SR:82, 7/4) is the market leader with a 6% inward move, holds a course win (W1P1 at Newmarket July), and won on her latest start just 9 days ago — a horse in sharp current form who has already shown she belongs at this track.
