Mr Fox’s call
Spirited Gesture
HIGH Advised 1/5 SP 1/6F Est. 72%
Mr Fox says
Spirited Gesture (SR:159, 1/5) is in a different class to this field — her SR of 159 sits in the top-class bracket and dwarfs the next-best Rubyroo (SR:144) by 15 points, with everyone else at 138 or below. She won on debut (Form:1), is trained by the Gosdens at a 24% strike rate, and has tightened a further 7% in the market to near-unbackable odds, confirming connections' confidence. The weight of 9-9 is only marginally above the rest of the field and poses no meaningful concern on good all-weather ground over 7f. In a Class 3 novice with no opponent carrying comparable ability, this is a straightforward selection. Each-way alternative: Rubyroo. Main danger: Rubyroo — Rubyroo (SR:144, 9/1) is a debutante from Hugo Palmer's yard — a trainer capable of producing well-schooled first-timers — and at SR:144 represents the only runner within 15 points of Spirited Gesture, meaning an above-par debut showing could make her the main threat, despite the 18% market drift being a concern.
