Mr Fox says

Queen Tamara (SR 88, 10/3) is the standout SR leader in this field by a margin of 5 points over the next best, and crucially carries only 9-10 — a significant weight advantage over top-weight Kaleido (10-2) and Rajapour (10-1). Dropping two class tiers (ClassMv:↓2) means she faces a materially easier task than when she was recording her best form, and her DistFit:+ confirms she handles this trip. Harry Charlton's 17% yard strike rate is the best in the field, and Lewis Edmunds at 11% is a capable partner. The 106-day absence is the one concern and the market reflects this at 10/3, but the class drop plus clear SR superiority makes her the standout selection on balance. Each-way alternative: Mr King. Main danger: Mr King — Mr King (SR 83, 4/1) has steamed in 17% in the market, carries a lighter weight of 10-0, Connor Beasley is a strong booking at 15% strike rate, and the headgear switch to hood could unlock improvement — making him the most credible threat to the selection.
