SPECULATIVE Advised 13/8 Est. 35%

🥈 2ND

Mr Fox says

Talitha Rouge (SR:77, 13/8) is comfortably the highest-rated runner in this field, carrying 10-0 but still holding a clear SR advantage over the second-best, Mohaab (SR:71). Her DistFit:+ and GoingFit:+ are the only confirmed distance-and-going matches in the field, and she ran just 7 days ago suggesting peak fitness. The form string 343621 shows consistent engagement at this level and ClassMv:= confirms she's not facing a harder task than last time. The 13/8 market price is short but reflects genuine ability superiority rather than hype. Each-way alternative: Mohaab. Main danger: Mohaab — Mohaab (SR:71, 11/2) has steamed in 23% in the market, carries only 9-3 (a 11lb weight relief over Talitha Rouge), and while GoingFit:- is a concern, the money being placed this aggressively on race-day suggests connections believe the going suits better than the record implies.
