Mr Fox says

Bound For Glory (SR:98, 10/3) is the highest-rated horse in the field by a clear margin and has steamed in 53% in the market — the strongest move of any runner — suggesting informed confidence from connections. At 11-0, the 4-year-old carries an advantageous weight relative to top-weights Harbour Light and Western George (both 12-0), representing a meaningful lb edge. The form line -13433 shows consistent placed efforts at this level (ClassMv:=), and trainer Robert Stephens at 11% strike rate is not elite but the dramatic market support overrides that concern. The principal caveat is DistFit:? and GoingFit:? — genuinely untested at this trip and going — which is why confidence stops at Medium rather than High. Each-way alternative: Harbour Light. Main danger: Harbour Light — Harbour Light (SR:105, 9/4) is the highest SR in the field and Sam Twiston-Davies is a strong booking for an in-house ride at 17% career strike rate, though the 8% drift and top-weight burden of 12-0 on Good to Soft over this marathon trip tempers enthusiasm.
