Mr Fox says

Private Policy tops the field on SR (86) and carries a workable 11-12, giving meaningful ability advantage over the next-best cluster (SR 78-80) without a crushing weight burden. The form string 404-15 shows a win last time out — the rightmost digit confirming a recent victory — and at 114 days off that run, connections have given the horse time to consolidate. The 11/2 price with only a 5% drift is not a notable concern; the market appears to respect the class edge. The three-star AI probability rating stands above most rivals, and trainer Nigel Thomas Slevin, though a modest 7% striker, is sending this horse out in peak condition off a winning run. Each-way alternative: Paul Collins. Main danger: Sharetheknowledge — Sharetheknowledge (SR 80, 7/1) carries only 11-5 — 7lb less than Private Policy — has two course places at Clonmel, and jockey Sean Flanagan's 10% career strike rate brings meaningful experience, though the drifting market (out 10%) and trainer's 0% strike rate from 31 runners are real concerns that temper the threat.
