Mr Fox’s call
Alobayyah
SPECULATIVE Advised 7/2 SP 100/30 Est. 28%
Mr Fox says
Alobayyah (SR 107, 7/2) is the highest-rated horse in this field and carries 9-4 — the same weight as the next-best-rated runners — so there is no weight penalty disadvantage relative to Arisaig at the same SR bracket. William Haggas (23% strike rate, 2053 runners) is the standout training operation here, and Tom Marquand (16%) is a reliable booking. The market has shortened 6% since opening, indicating quiet but real confidence, and DistFit:+ confirms proven ability over this mile. The GoingFit:- flag is the one genuine concern — she has a poor record on good ground — but at Listed level her SR 107 superiority and Haggas's class edge are compelling enough to overcome that reservation, especially as several rivals carry bigger negatives. Each-way alternative: Lizzana. Main danger: Estissa — Estissa (SR 105, 4/1) has the best recent form consistency in the field with a 121334 string, Oisin Murphy in the saddle (22% career strike rate), and both DistFit:+ and GoingFit:+ confirmed — the only concern is the market drifting 20% and a mark 14lb above her last win, suggesting connections may not be peak-confident.
