Mr Fox says

Zafaan (SR:63, 6/4) is the clear class leader in this field, carrying just 9-6 despite dropping two class tiers — a significant advantage that opens up a 53lb drop in mark since last win, making this a very winnable assignment. The market has firmed 16% since opening, reflecting informed confidence from Charlie Clover's yard (21% strike rate, one of the stronger trainers in the field) with Billy Loughnane booked at 18% career strike rate. GoingFit:~ is a minor concern on the All-Weather good surface, but the class drop of two tiers is the dominant signal here — SR:63 towers over the next-best Trojan Truth at SR:56 and Dijon Gone at SR:55, and both of those carry significant baggage (DistFit:- and GoingFit:- respectively). Each-way alternative: Dijon Gone. Main danger: Trojan Truth — Trojan Truth (SR:56, 13/2) has Course:W1P6 — an exceptional Wolverhampton record that suggests a genuine course specialist, and despite DistFit:-, that course familiarity on an AW track can override trip concerns at this level.
