Mr Fox’s call
No More Bolero
SPECULATIVE Advised 6/4 Est. 32%
Mr Fox says
No More Bolero (SR 116, 6/4) is the highest-rated runner in this small Class 4 field and arrives in fine recent form — a 13-112 sequence showing three placings or wins from last four, most recently a second just 22 days ago indicating peak fitness. Harry Cobden (21% career strike rate) is a top booking and the GoingFit:+ confirms this horse handles good ground. The class rise (↑1) and MarkMv:+7 are genuine concerns, but with only five runners, the SR edge over the field is meaningful — SR 116 versus the next best at 111. The 18% market drift is worth noting, but in a race this small, drifters can simply reflect each-way money or stable hedging rather than insider concern; the form profile here is too strong to dismiss. Each-way alternative: So Proud. Main danger: Ask A Sainte — Ask A Sainte (SR 110, 9/4) has Sean Bowen in the saddle — the strongest jockey in the field at 23% career strike rate — GoingFit:+ confirmed, and Olly Murphy's 20% yard strike rate gives this horse a serious platform to overcome the MarkMv:+7 concern if it reproduces its best.
