Mr Fox’s call
Level Look
SPECULATIVE Advised 5/4 SP 11/10F Est. 38%
Mr Fox says
Level Look (SR 93, 5/4) carries the lightest weight in the field at 9-4 and has steamed in 40% from its opening price — the strongest market signal in a small field. Dropping a class (ClassMv:↓1) off a recent form figure of '6' (last of six) is not alarming in a 4-runner Class 4 heat, and Andrew Balding (19% strike rate, 1543 runners) is a top-tier handler whose runners attract genuine money when they shorten this aggressively. GoingFit:+ confirms the going is no concern. The weight advantage over Robusto (9-12) is meaningful at this trip and SR parity with Brunhilde is broken by Level Look's superior connections and market confidence. Each-way alternative: Brunhilde. Main danger: Brunhilde — Brunhilde (SR 93, 11/4) drops a class, carries only 9-5, and is trained by George Boughey (17% strike rate) with Billy Loughnane aboard (19% strike rate) — top connections that could overcome the 34% drift and unproven trip if this longer distance suits the filly's profile.
