Mr Fox says

Showcasing Glory (SR 150, 9/2) carries the highest Saturday Rating in the field and has steamed in dramatically — 60% market move in from opening price — which is the single strongest market signal in this race. Despite a modest debut showing of 7th, the market has clearly taken encouragement from that run at the same class level, and the trainer Charlie Johnston operates at 13% strike rate from a very high volume of runners (2506), suggesting this is a yard that knows when a horse is ready to improve. At 9-7 with a clean weight draw and no headgear concerns, this is a straightforward profile for a two-year-old on the AW improving off a first run. Dreamed (SR 149, 4/1) is the primary danger as a near-equal SR but has drifted 13% from opening, and Alberich (SR 145) with its 14% market move gives secondary each-way appeal. Each-way alternative: Alberich. Main danger: Dreamed — Dreamed carries SR 149 — just one point below Showcasing Glory — with P.J. McDonald booked (14% career strike rate, 1486 runners) and has already shown ability with a 4th on debut at the same class level, meaning any improvement puts it squarely in contention despite the 13% drift.
