Mr Fox’s call
Douglas Dc
SPECULATIVE Advised 4/1 Est. 28%
Mr Fox says
Douglas Dc (SR:53, 4/1) is the second-highest rated horse in the field and carries a competitive 9-9, giving him a clear 5lb weight relief against favourite Foinix (SR:56, 10-0). The standout signal here is the Mkt:in27% — the sharpest move in the field by some margin — indicating significant market confidence backed by Tony Carroll (13% strike rate, 1431 runners) and Marco Ghiani (14%, 873 runners), both reliable operators. His form line of -97552 is admittedly moderate, but the blinkers are retained and the class (Class 6 AW) suits his profile. The going is flagged GoingFit:- for all three leading contenders including Foinix, so that concern is neutralised across the board. Each-way alternative: Foinix. Main danger: Foinix — Foinix carries the top SR (56) in the field, has course form (W1P1), and is joint-favourite at 3/1 with blinkers retained — the weight disadvantage of 10-0 is the main concern, but the ability edge is real.
