Mr Fox’s call
Delulu
SPECULATIVE Advised 1/2 Est. 42%
Mr Fox says
Delulu (SR 110, 1/2) is the clear SR leader in this field by 7 points over the next-best, and the Skelton yard (21% strike rate, 1234 runners) with Harry Skelton aboard (27%, 713 runners) represents the strongest connections in the race by a considerable margin. The horse ran just 14 days ago at the same class level, indicating fitness is not a concern, and a debut second suggests she is learning her trade quickly. The 1/2 price is short but the Skelton machine firing with their best jockey on the highest-rated runner in a 7-strong mares' bumper is a justified market position — the 47% market contraction on Lady Chauntee shows there is a genuine rival, but Delulu's SR edge and vastly superior connections make her the logical winner. Each-way alternative: Lady Chauntee. Main danger: Lady Chauntee — Lady Chauntee (SR 102, 7/4) has steamed in 47% from her opening price under Henrietta Knight — a trainer who wins with 18% of her small string — and on debut she carries top-weight equal to a more experienced runner, suggesting the market has seen something in her home work that justifies serious respect.
