Mr Fox’s call

Noble Grace silks

Noble Grace

SPECULATIVE Advised 4/1 Est. 35%

Mr Fox says

Noble Grace (SR:59, 4/1, Wgt:10-0) is the SR leader in a weak Class 6 field and has steamed in 36% in the market — the most significant market move in the race by a considerable margin. Warren Greatrex's 14% strike rate and Rob Hornby's 12% aboard give competent connections, and the drop of four class tiers from the horse's most recent run suggests this is a deliberately targeted assignment. The form string 474137 shows a recent '7' but the class drop and market confidence suggest that run is being overlooked by connections who know better. GoingFit:~ is mild concern but not disqualifying on good ground at this level, and a 36% market move is too loud a signal to ignore in a race where the SR advantage is also with this horse. Each-way alternative: Sir Griflet. Main danger: Urban Warrior — Urban Warrior (SR:58, 11/4) is the second-highest SR in the field and sits 2lb lighter than Noble Grace at 9-12, carrying a ClassMv:↓1 into a race where it is likely the yard's intended winner — though the 12% market drift and GoingFit:- are genuine negatives that prevent it being the primary pick.
