Harry Knows
HIGH Advised 5/6 Est. 45%
Mr Fox says
Harry Knows (SR 98, 5/6) is the standout on every meaningful signal. An SR of 98 is comfortably the highest in this five-runner Class 4 field, and the 12-point gap over the next-best rivals is decisive at this level. The market has already told the story — a 26% inward move to 5/6 from a presumably longer opening price signals strong professional confidence, not just punter enthusiasm. Course form is confirmed (W1P1 at Windsor), distance fitness is rated '+', and Oisin Murphy's booking (21% career strike rate from 1,291 rides) is the classiest jockey combination in the race. Carrying 9-10 with a MarkMv:+3 is a minor concern, but the SR superiority more than compensates at this class level. Each-way alternative: Keep Kicking On. Main danger: Keep Kicking On — Keep Kicking On (SR 86, 5/1) won last time out and carries a favourable 9-7 with Course:W1P1, meaning it has already scored at Windsor and the drop back to familiar ground gives it the best residual chance of upsetting the favourite.
Full result
Winner: Keep Kicking On (IRE) at SP 7/2. Mr Fox’s picks highlighted in gold.
