Mr Fox says

Dream Diamond (SR 110, 7/2) is the class leader in this field and carries a workable 12-0 — not a crushing burden — while running off a mark 5lb LOWER than last win (MarkMv:-5), which is a meaningful handicapper's gift. The 14% market move inward signals informed money, and Course:W1P2 confirms Worcester suitability. GoingFit:+ on today's good ground and a consistent recent form string of 3-U233 (the U being an unseating rather than a beaten effort) underline a horse in solid order. Trainer James Owen at 17% and Jonathan Burke at 16% are competent connections for a Class 4 contest of this nature. Each-way alternative: County Champs. Main danger: County Champs — County Champs (SR 94, 4/1) has steamed in 24% in the market — the strongest move in the field — carries only 10-5 (a 13lb weight advantage over Dream Diamond), and Harry Cobden at 21% strike rate is a top-class booking that signals stable confidence despite 255 days off.
