Mr Fox says

Vince Le Prince (SR 77, 3/1) is the most compelling overall package despite stepping up one class. The horse boasts outstanding course credentials at Catterick — Course:W3P11 is the strongest specialist record in the field by a wide margin — and carries a featherweight 9-2, a 7lb advantage over the heaviest runners. MarkMv:-10 indicates the horse is running off a mark well below its last win, a significant handicapper's gift. The market has also steamed in 18% since opening, mirroring the market confidence seen on Imperial Guard, suggesting informed money is on board. The going (Good to Firm) is not a confirmed fit (GoingFit:~) which prevents full conviction, but the weight, course record, and market drift all point in the same direction. Each-way alternative: Imperial Guard. Main danger: Mo Anam Chara — Mo Anam Chara (SR 87, 11/4) is the highest-rated horse in the field by a clear margin and has a recent consistent form string (2-0121) at the same class, with the weight advantage of 9-10 — though the 10% market drift and unproven going record temper enthusiasm.
