Mr Fox says

Misunderstood (SR 90, 15/8) is the clear class leader in this field — 3 SR points clear of Supreme Clarets and a full 14-17 points ahead of the mid-pack. Despite carrying 10-1, the weight disadvantage over Supreme Clarets (9-4) is partially offset by the SR gap: a 3-point SR advantage is slim, but Misunderstood's trainer David O'Meara (13%, 2861 runners) and jockey Daniel Tudhope (18%, 1893 runners) is comfortably the strongest connections combination on the card. The market has shortened 9% since opening, confirming stable confidence, and the horse arrives fresh off a 17-day break with recent form 774522 — consistent rather than spectacular but showing no deterioration. The GoingFit:- and DistFit:- flags are a genuine concern at this trip and going bucket, but no other runner combines SR superiority with this level of market and jockey support. Each-way alternative: Supreme Clarets. Main danger: Supreme Clarets — Supreme Clarets (SR 87, 7/2) arrives in excellent recent form (922411), carries only 9-4 giving it a 11lb weight pull on Misunderstood, has course form (W1P1), and the market, though slightly drifted at -5%, still prices it as the clear second market choice — if Misunderstood's poor distance and going fit count against it today, Supreme Clarets is well-placed to capitalise.
