Mr Fox says

Vince Le Prince (SR 76, 4/1) is the top-rated horse in the field and carries a favourable 9-6 — lighter than stablemate Mister Sox (9-13) and Havana Rum (9-11). GoingFit:+ confirms he handles soft ground, which is the key filter in today's conditions, and Course:W4P13 at Catterick makes him a genuine course specialist. The market has backed him in 10% since opening, David Allan takes the ride (13% career strike rate from 2,256 runners), and dropping one class (ClassMv:↓1) brings him into a race he should dominate on SR. The +3 mark rise is a minor negative but is offset by the class drop and weight advantage. Each-way alternative: Evocative Spark. Main danger: Havana Rum — Havana Rum carries the second-highest SR (73) at 9/2 with a 12% market move in and a -5lb mark drop, and while GoingFit:- and DistFit:- are genuine concerns, the Fahey yard's backing and the eased mark mean he cannot be fully dismissed if the soft ground suits better than his record suggests.
