Mr Fox’s call
Beorma
MEDIUM Advised 1/2 Est. 58%
Mr Fox says
Beorma (SR 122, 1/2) is the standout on every meaningful metric in this small field. A perfect six-race winning sequence (Form:111111) under Dan Skelton (21% strike rate, 1214 runners) and Harry Skelton (27%, 696 runners) — elite connections who rarely run a horse blind. Despite stepping up one class (ClassMv:↑1) and carrying a mark 12lb higher than last win (MarkMv:+12), the SR of 122 is a full 10 points clear of the next-best Seeyouinmydreams (SR 112) and the weight of 11-6 is 8lb lighter than top-weight Duke Of Luckley. The DistFit:~ and GoingFit:? are the only mild concerns, but a six-timer in the making with the Skelton operation behind it on fast summer ground demands respect regardless. Each-way alternative: Seeyouinmydreams. Main danger: Seeyouinmydreams — Seeyouinmydreams (SR 112, 11/2) has the second-best SR in the field, carries 5lb less than Beorma, and T Ellis operates at a 21% strike rate — if Beorma's unbeaten run is finally halted by the class rise and higher mark, this is the most likely beneficiary.
