Mr Fox says

Tee Aitch Aye (SR:75, 10/3) arrives off a last-time-out win just 7 days ago, form reading 076321 — progressive trajectory into today's Class 5 step up. The SR of 75 is competitive for this grade, and running off the same mark as the last win (MarkMv:=) means the handicapper has not yet raised him, preserving the winning edge. Jockey Jack Nicholls (12% strike rate) provides adequate experience, and the light weight of 9-4 is a genuine advantage over Zermatt Star and Hostility at 9-5/9-7. The market has drifted slightly (out8%) which is a mild concern, but the recency of the win and the favourable weight allocation outweigh that signal in a moderate Class 5 field. Each-way alternative: Hostility. Main danger: Zermatt Star — Zermatt Star (SR:77, 3/1) is the highest-rated horse in the field with a last-time-out win, running off the same mark (MarkMv:=), and despite a minor drift of 5% the market still has it as the clear favourite — that SR advantage combined with the light weight of 9-5 makes it the most obvious threat to the selection.
