Mr Fox says

Divine Legend (SR:90, 5/2) is the highest-rated runner in the field and carries a featherweight 9-3, giving her a meaningful lbs advantage over Expert Dancer (SR:89, 9-8) and Sanctijude (SR:84, 9-8). Her GoingFit:+ on today's Good ground is a standout positive signal no other shortlisted runner matches, and her recent form of -74221 shows a consistent upward trajectory culminating in a last-time-out win. The market has shortened 3% (Mkt:in3%) and Ben Coen, a jockey with 1,856 career runners and 11% strike rate, is a confident booking for J.P. Murtagh's yard. Light weight, peak form, proven on this going, and top SR make this the clearest case in the field. Each-way alternative: Expert Dancer. Main danger: Expert Dancer — Expert Dancer (SR:89, 7/2) has steamed in 15% in the market, carries level weights with Sanctijude at 9-8, and her form of -33712 shows a last-time-out second that may understate her current ability — the money is clearly onside and she represents the primary threat to Divine Legend.
