Mr Fox says

Chapel Island (SR:63, 5/1) is the highest-rated runner in the field by a clear margin, which matters even in a competitive lower-grade handicap. The decisive signal is the 29% market shortening — the sharpest move in the entire field — suggesting stable confidence ahead of a run just 3 days ago, implying this is a planned quick turnaround with the horse in form. As A Oliver's yard #1 (Wesley Joyce booking versus the more senior W.J. Lee on No More Hiding is notable — Joyce is the lighter-weighted, cheaper booking, but the market has answered that question emphatically). The weight of 9-5 is reasonable given the SR advantage, and while DistFit and GoingFit both show '-', those negatives are shared across most of this field on a track where going conditions are universal on the day. Each-way alternative: Chloe's Boy. Main danger: Chloe's Boy — Chloe's Boy (SR:60, 4/1) posted a '1' last time out, carries a manageable 9-4, has a GoingFit:~ advantage over most rivals on good ground, and is second-favourite — the form figure is the strongest recent evidence in the race.
