Mr Fox’s call

Dream Diamond silks

Dream Diamond

MEDIUM Advised 11/8 Est. 38%

Mr Fox says

Dream Diamond (SR:119, 11/8) is the most compelling case in this small field. The market has steamed in 39% — by far the strongest move in the race — and Sean Bowen (24% strike rate, 2,402 career rides) is a booking that commands respect. Crucially, MarkMv:-12 means the horse is running off a mark 12lb below its last win, an enormous concession from the handicapper that gives it a huge edge over rivals running off marks at or above their last winning mark. GoingFit:+ confirms suitability to today's good ground, and at 11-7 it carries the lightest weight in the field, compounding the handicap advantage. Each-way alternative: Jet Smart. Main danger: Jet Smart — Jet Smart (SR:119, 4/1) has steamed in 24%, carries DistFit:+ and GoingFit:+, and its form string '1-2223' shows consistent placing — if Dream Diamond underperforms on its first run back at this trip (DistFit:~), Jet Smart's proven course credentials make it the most likely beneficiary.
