Mr Fox says

Alvesta (SR:91, 3/1) holds the highest Saturday Rating in the field by a clear margin and carries a very manageable 10-12, giving her a 16lb weight advantage over top-weight Zamond while rating 3 points superior. Her form reads 6-7131 — three finishes in the top three from her last four starts — and she brings outstanding course credentials: 2 wins and 3 places at Cartmel specifically, confirming she handles this track's undulations and tight bends. DistFit:+ confirms she's proven at this distance, and the market has edged in 5% since opening, suggesting quiet confidence from the Moffatt yard. As the stable's #1 runner (Masekela drifted 22% and carries a lower SR:74), this is clearly where Moffatt's money is. Each-way alternative: Mi Sueno. Main danger: Mi Sueno — Mi Sueno (SR:84, 3/1) ran only 4 days ago suggesting peak fitness, carries a handy 10-13, and trainer Nick Scholfield's 17% strike rate is the strongest in the field — a horse dropping the tongue-tie and showing recent form of P45121 has serious each-way claims at level weights.
