Mr Fox says

All Ways Glamorous (SR 109, 4/1) leads the field on ability and carries the most compelling multi-signal case: the strongest SR in the race, confirmed GoingFit:+ on today's good-to-firm ground, DistFit:+ at 5f, Course:W1P3 at Ascot showing genuine course affinity, and a recent form line of 7-3911 showing two consecutive wins into today. Critically, the market has steamed in 32% — the sharpest move in the field — confirming strong confidence from those with inside information. Trainer Christopher Mason operates at a 20% strike rate from a relatively compact yard (109 runners), meaning selections are selective and the booking of Mme Marie Velon suggests a serious tilt. Running off MarkMv:+5 is a minor concern but the class level is unchanged and the weight of 9-11 is manageable given the SR advantage. Each-way alternative: Tuco Salamanca. Main danger: Tuco Salamanca — Tuco Salamanca (SR 106, 6/1) has steamed in 18% in the market, holds a confirmed DistFit:+ at 5f, is trained by the in-form Ollie Sangster (13% strike rate), and last-time-out form of 9-1610 includes a recent win — at just 7 days between runs suggesting peak fitness and a yard that believes it is ready.
