Mr Fox says

Final Objective (SR:117, 10/3) leads the field on Saturday Rating and has steamed in 42% from opening — the most aggressive market move in the race — with James Doyle (21% career strike rate) in the saddle for a yard (Hamad Al Jehani, 20% SR) that clearly fancies this. The DistFit:+ confirms proven ability at the 5f trip, the form string 27412 shows a last-time-out second that keeps the horse competitive at Group 2 level, and the MarkMv:+7 is a manageable rise that the SR comfortably absorbs. Carry The Flag (SR:113) steamed 33% and is the obvious danger, but Final Objective's superior SR edge and bigger market move gives it the nod. Each-way alternative: Carry The Flag. Main danger: Carry The Flag — Carry The Flag (SR:113, 9/2) has steamed in 33% with Ryan Moore (24% career SR) aboard for Aidan O'Brien, carries DistFit:+ at this 5f trip, and a form string of 291742 shows the ability to mix it at this level — only 4 SR points behind the selection and with the most powerful trainer-jockey combination in the race.
