Mr Fox says

Edwin Hubble (SR 88, 5/1) shares the joint-highest SR in the field with Del Corso yet carries 9-11 — 9lb more than Del Corso's 9-2 looks significant until you note the raw SR parity makes that weight spread meaningful in Del Corso's favour, but Edwin Hubble's GoingFit:+ is a decisive edge over Del Corso's GoingFit:- on today's Good going. Edwin Hubble's form string 725133 shows a clear progressive arc culminating in back-to-back wins/places, he's DistFit:+ confirming he handles this 1m2f50y trip, and Tom Marquand (16% career strike rate across 2,555 runners) is an elite booking. The market has drifted 31% which is a concern, but this may reflect the blinkers first-time flag (HG:b) creating uncertainty rather than genuine negative information, and the going advantage over Del Corso is concrete. Each-way alternative: Double Red. Main danger: Del Corso — Del Corso (SR 88, 9/2) matches Edwin Hubble on SR, carries 9lb less weight, has Course:W2P3 at Nottingham, DistFit:+ confirmed, and Mkt:in16% — the only concern is GoingFit:- on today's Good ground, which must be overcome but is the one reason to favour Edwin Hubble over him.
