Sidiriya

SPECULATIVE Advised 7/1 Est. 22%

Mr Fox says

Sidiriya (SR:75, 7/1) is the standout mover in the market, steaming in 13% from opening price — meaningful support in an 18-runner mares' handicap where information asymmetry is real. Carrying a light 10-3 compared to the top-weights, she has a significant weight advantage over Sea Of Doubt (12-0) and Whispering Willow (11-11), both of whom carry penalties. Her GoingFit:~ on good ground is workable, and while DistFit:- is a concern, the same flag applies to most of the field in this competitive low-grade contest. P J Rothwell's 8% strike rate across 1,779 runners is modest but the stable clearly fancies this one given the market move. Each-way alternative: Sea Of Doubt. Main danger: Sea Of Doubt — Sea Of Doubt (SR:89, 3/1) is the highest-rated horse in the field and despite drifting 11% — likely a reaction to top-weight 12-0 and MarkMv:+7 — the Form 32U641 shows a last-start win and GoingFit:~ is adequate, making it the most capable horse on raw ability if the weight doesn't anchor it.
