Mr Fox says

Apex Star holds the highest SR in the field at 69, a clear edge over Trust Sergei (SR 67) and Candy Warhol (SR 64), and crucially carries just 9-5 — 2lb less than the co-favourite Trust Sergei despite superior ability. The market has firmed 11% since opening, signalling informed money, and William Knight (15% strike rate, 638 runners) pairs with Marco Ghiani (16% strike rate, 1,645 runners) — the strongest trainer-jockey combination in this field. Form of 372033 shows consistent involvement at the sharp end, and the Class 6 level suits. The GoingFit:~ is a mild caveat but the AW surface at Wolverhampton normalises going concerns considerably. Each-way alternative: Em Jay Kay. Main danger: Trust Sergei — Trust Sergei (SR 67, 10/3) has an excellent course record of W2P4 at Wolverhampton — the strongest course form in the field — and drops a class, making this comfortably his easiest assignment on paper despite a GoingFit:- caveat on the AW.
