Mr Fox says

Abundant (SR:92, 6/4, Wgt:9-9) is the highest-rated horse in the field by a clear margin and carries a very manageable weight — 2lb less than Drymee despite being the SR leader. The Form:-43351 shows a progressive 3-year-old who has tightened up to a win last time out at this same class level (ClassMv:=), and DistFit:+ confirms proven ability over today's mile. Sean Levey (13% career SR) is a solid booking, and at 6/4 the market clearly agrees with the ability case. The one concern is the GoingFit:? flag suggesting limited good-ground data, but the moderate drift risk is absent here — no market movement flags suggest the yard is confident. Each-way alternative: Storming Point. Main danger: Storming Point — Storming Point (SR:87, 11/4) drops two class tiers (ClassMv:↓2), is ridden by the high-strike-rate Ryan Moore (24%), and holds a Course:W0P1 record at Newbury — the class relief combined with the best jockey in the race makes it the most credible threat to Abundant.
