Mr Fox’s call
Caragio
SPECULATIVE Advised 2/1 SP 6/5F Est. 32%
Mr Fox says
Caragio (SR:81, 2/1) is the top-rated horse in this field and carries the lightest weight among the leading contenders at 9-8, giving him a meaningful lbs advantage over Silver Trumpet (10-0) and Arantes Nascimento (9-13). The market has moved emphatically in his favour — a 22% inward move is the strongest steam in the race and the money appears to be following a legitimate case. He has course form (W1P1 at Kempton) and trainer Adam Kirby runs a yard striking at 12%. The primary concern is DistFit:- at this 7f trip on the AW, but the weight edge, top SR, and aggressive market support outweigh that reservation in a modest Class 5 field. Each-way alternative: Arantes Nascimento. Main danger: Silver Trumpet — Silver Trumpet (SR:80) drops a class, holds course form (W1P1 at Kempton), and despite drifting 9% is the second-highest rated runner — if the blinkers (HG:b) sharpen him up at this track he is the most likely rival to Caragio.
