No More Bolero

SPECULATIVE Advised 7/2 Est. 32%

🥈 2ND

Mr Fox says

No More Bolero (SR 100, 7/2) holds the highest Saturday Rating in the field and arrives on the back of back-to-back wins (Form: 413-11), dropping a class (ClassMv:↓1) and confirmed on today's good going (GoingFit:+). Course:W1P1 at Market Rasen is a meaningful edge on a track that rewards specialists, and Harry Cobden (21% career strike rate) is a top booking that adds confidence. The visor headgear has been in place during the winning run and the 12-0 top weight is a concern but SR 100 is 4 points clear of the next best and the class drop offsets the mark rise of +4. The only credible rival is Ashdown Forest, and No More Bolero's proven course record and going confirmation tilt the balance in its favour. Each-way alternative: Ashdown Forest. Main danger: Ashdown Forest — Ashdown Forest (SR 96, 7/4) is trained by Dan Skelton (21% strike rate) and ridden by Harry Skelton (27%), won last time out off a mark now 7lb higher, and at 4 years old has the most upside in the field — the Skelton yard consistently targets races like this with progressive juveniles and the market's favouritism reflects genuine confidence.
