Mr Fox says

Tokyo Tower leads the field with SR:85 and is the only runner showing genuine market confidence — a 17% move in from opening (Mkt:in17%) is a meaningful signal in a juvenile hurdle where stable intelligence matters enormously, as these horses are largely unexposed over jumps. At 9/4 with Jack Tudor booked (14% strike rate across 972 rides), the connections package is solid. By contrast, market-favourite Sacre Chef (SR:80, 15/8) has drifted 6% and the Skelton yard has split their focus across three runners here — Sacre Chef gets Harry Skelton (26%) which is the yard's #1 signal, but the drift and lower SR compared to Tokyo Tower tip the balance. Tokyo Tower's headgear (tongue-tie, HG:t) suggests connections know something about how to get the best from this horse on debut over hurdles. Each-way alternative: Sacre Chef. Main danger: Sacre Chef — Harry Skelton (26% career strike rate, 1665 rides) is the Skelton yard's clear #1 booking and Sacre Chef holds the second-highest SR in the field at 80 — if the 6% drift is simply market noise rather than negative stable confidence, it remains a major threat at 15/8.
