Mr Fox says

Chemdawg (SR:90, 6/1, Wgt:10-2) carries one of the lightest competitive weights in the field, giving her a meaningful pound advantage over the top-weights despite a comparable SR. Her DistFit:+ confirms she handles this 2m3f trip, and her recent form of P21-25 shows she was winning at this level two runs ago before a creditable second last time out — consistent, in-form profile. Phillip Enright booking (7%, 657 career rides) is a reliable pilot. The slight market drift (out7%) is a mild concern but the weight-for-ability profile and proven distance credentials outweigh it against a field where rivals either carry significantly more weight or have glaring going/distance negatives. Each-way alternative: Ivana D'alco. Main danger: Ivana D'alco — Willie Mullins (21% strike rate, 1308 runners) is the strongest trainer in the field by a considerable margin, and Ivana D'alco's form of F41-61 includes a recent win, with Brian Hayes booked — the hat (HG:ht) is a first-time tongue-tie suggesting Mullins is looking to sharpen her up for this.
