Mr Fox’s call
Teofil
SPECULATIVE Advised 5/6 SP 8/11F Est. 38%
Mr Fox says
Teofil (SR:104, 5/6) is the clear SR leader in this field by a margin of 10 points over the next best runners, and at 4 years old with a 2-1 form line (won last, placed before that) represents the most consistent and progressive profile in the race. Jim Bolger's yard carries genuine class in bumper/point-to-point sphere and jockey Gleeson has a strong 17% career strike rate from 144 rides — the most credible pilot in this Pro/Am context. Weight of 11-11 is competitive, sitting lighter than the 12-0 burdens on the two SR:94 rivals. The principal concern is the 5/6 price leaving little margin for error, and Emergency Man at 9/4 (SR:88) represents a credible danger for reasons of market confidence and significant weight relief at 11-4. Each-way alternative: Emergency Man. Main danger: Emergency Man — Emergency Man (SR:88, 9/4) carries the lightest weight among the leading contenders at 11-4, a 7lb advantage over Farney Bridge and Rokanako and 7lb below Teofil, which at 2m100y on good ground in a bumper context is meaningful, and the market has settled him as a clear second favourite suggesting connections and backers are confident.
