Mr Fox’s call
Saint Of Seville
SPECULATIVE Advised 9/4 Est. 32%
Mr Fox says
Saint Of Seville (SR 154, 9/4) represents the Gosden yard — the highest strike-rate trainer in the field at 24% — paired with William Buick at 25%, the strongest jockey-trainer combination on show. Despite being a debutant, the market has shortened 6% and it sits as favourite, reflecting strong stable confidence. Its SR of 154 is the second-highest in the field and Gosden/Buick routinely debut well-prepared juveniles at this class level. Chapron is the each-way danger from the Balding yard, having steamed 11% in the market and booked the better jockey (Oisin Murphy, 22%) over stablemate Caldo, marking it as Balding's primary hope despite identical SR readings. Each-way alternative: Chapron. Main danger: Chymbulak — Chymbulak carries the highest SR in the field at 155, has race experience from two prior runs (form 2-5), and while it has drifted 11% today that price move may simply reflect the step up from its last outing — form fitness and a proven Varian/Dawson combination at Class 3 make it a live threat.
Full result
Winner: Chymbulak (IRE) at SP 7/2. Mr Fox’s picks highlighted in gold.
