Mr Fox’s call
Lunar Orbit
SPECULATIVE Advised 7/4 Est. 35%
Mr Fox says
Lunar Orbit (SR:106, 7/4) holds the highest SR in the field and carries a manageable 11-10, a full 4lb less than the two top-weights. The Mark drop of -2lb since last win is a small but genuine aid, and GoingFit:+ confirms proven aptitude for today's good ground. The Skelton yard runs at a 21% strike rate over 1,237 runners and Harry Skelton's 28% win rate from 716 rides is the standout jockey booking in the race — connections clearly mean business. The drop in class (↓1) into a £4,225 Class 5 from stronger company, combined with the recent 2 last time out, suggests a horse returning to a winnable level at peak fitness having run 17 days ago. Each-way alternative: Zamond. Main danger: Zamond — Zamond (SR:107, 9/4) is the field's joint-top rater, has steamed in 16% in the market suggesting stable confidence, and form figures 2-8212 show consistent recent placing — if McCain's yard sends one horse in to win, the market shortening points firmly at Zamond rather than his two stablemates.
