Mr Fox says

A La Prochaine (SR 114, 3/1) is the highest-rated runner in this Listed field and carries a 9lb weight advantage over the older horses, a significant concession in her favour given the level of competition. Her market has shortened 29% from opening, the most decisive steaming move in the field, suggesting strong professional support — connections and market agree. Ralph Beckett (17% career strike rate, 932 runners) is a trainer who handles fillies with care, and James Doyle (18% strike rate) is a high-quality booking who reflects yard confidence. Her recent form of 1-34 shows she was winning earlier in the campaign before running into stiffer Listed company; returning here at the same class with weight in her pocket and a horse who clearly has more to offer is a compelling case. Each-way alternative: Vauntingly. Main danger: Morrophore — Morrophore (SR 110) has a strong recent form line of 3141-1 — her last run was a win — GoingFit confirmed on good ground, and the Gosden yard's #1 runner is identified by Ryan Moore's booking (27% career strike rate), making her a live each-way threat despite a 215-day absence and a 33% market drift that requires explanation.
