Mr Fox’s call
Electric Eddy
SPECULATIVE Advised 3/1 Est. 32%
Mr Fox says
Electric Eddy (SR:86, 3/1) has steamed in 31% from opening price — the strongest market move among genuine contenders — and carries a manageable 11-5 off a mark 5lb lower than his last win (MarkMv:-5), the most favourable weight relief in the field. GoingFit:+ confirms he handles today's good ground, and trainer Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies (11%) with Sam Twiston-Davies aboard (17%, 994 career runners) is a potent combination when they send a horse in confident from the market. His recent form P-3664 is uninspiring on the face of it, but the 5lb drop in class-adjusted mark combined with the dramatic market support suggests connections believe conditions are right today. The DistFit:? is the one caveat — untested at this trip — but the market money arriving at 31% implies that concern is priced in. Each-way alternative: The Clonmel Kid. Main danger: The Clonmel Kid — The Clonmel Kid (SR:87, 9/2) carries the joint-highest SR in the field and has steamed in 27% — significant market confidence — and though top-weight at 12-0 is a concern, the 2lb drop in mark and McMenamin's 15% strike rate make this a live each-way threat that could overhaul Electric Eddy on raw ability.
