Mr Fox says

Hunstanton (SR 151, 3/1) is the Boughey yard's #1 runner, confirmed by the booking of Billy Loughnane (18%, 3,038 career rides — the stable's go-to jockey) over Pat Cosgrave on stablemate Arthur Carrot. The market has shortened 12% into 3/1, indicating quiet but meaningful support, while Boughey's 18% yard strike rate is among the strongest in the field. As a debutant, the SR of 151 ranks second-highest in the race, and the yard's pattern of running well-prepped juveniles on the Southwell AW surface is well-established. Arthur Carrot (SR 146) is the obvious stablemate consideration, but a 34% outward drift, a modest recent form line of 2-6, and the yard's clear preference for Hunstanton via jockey booking relegate him to second string. Each-way alternative: Castlerock Girl. Main danger: Castlerock Girl — Castlerock Girl (SR 154, 2/1) is the market leader, carries the lightest weight at 9-2 giving her a 5lb pull on all rivals, and is trained by Clive Cox (17% strike rate, 1,076 runners) — a yard that routinely lands juvenile debutants at short prices on the AW.
