Mr Fox says

Arundel (SR 68, 10/3) holds the clear SR lead in a modest Class 6 field where no rival breaks 65, and his DistFit:+ confirms he handles this 1m2f trip. Dropping a class (ClassMv:↓1) from his last run is a meaningful aid even if the MarkMv:+7 demands a career-best, and Ed Dunlop at 12% strike rate with Billy Loughnane (18%, 3031 career rides) is a strong booking. Crucially the market has firmed 6% — quiet but consistent money arriving on a horse whose form string of 2-2-4-5-3 shows a consistent placer that may have found the right opportunity dropping in class. The danger is Fast Steps who has steamed in 47% in the market and carries a MarkMv:-15 meaning he's running well below his last winning mark — that is significant latent ability and GoingFit:+ confirms he handles today's conditions. Each-way alternative: Fast Steps. Main danger: Fast Steps — Fast Steps (SR 62, 9/1) has steamed in 47% in the market — the strongest move in the field — carries a MarkMv:-15 suggesting he is running well below his last winning mark with GoingFit:+ confirming today's ground suits him.
