Mr Fox’s call
Izzari
SPECULATIVE Advised 6/4 Est. 38%
Mr Fox says
Izzari (SR:78, 6/4) is the clear ability leader in this six-runner Class 6 field, sitting 5-8 SR points clear of every rival and carrying a workable 9-6. The form string 069281 shows a last-time-out win and the market has steamed in 18% since opening — meaningful money on a small field where bookmakers watch the market closely. Iain Jardine runs at a respectable 12% strike rate over a large sample (1,560 runners), and the horse stays at the same class and same mark as its last win, presenting no penalties to absorb. The one caution is apprentice Cara Tuke's relatively limited experience (37 career rides, 8% strike rate) and a six-day turnaround, but neither negates the SR and market edge. Each-way alternative: King Sharja. Main danger: King Sharja — King Sharja (SR:70) arrives on a hot sequence of 562111 — three wins on the spin — is at the same class and only 2lb above its last winning mark, and at 9/2 carries just 1lb more than Izzari despite being in the form of its life, making it the most credible threat to reverse the SR deficit.
