Time To Sparkle
SPECULATIVE Advised 5/2 Est. 27%
Mr Fox says
Time To Sparkle (SR:86, 5/2) is the highest-rated horse in the field by a clear margin and arrives on a strong recent sequence of 532311 — three consecutive placed efforts culminating in a win. The market has backed it in 8%, indicating quiet confidence from connections. James Keane has a solid 18% strike rate despite a small yard, and Harry Vigors (5) at 13% is a competent claimer reducing the weight burden. While stepping up one class and running off a mark 6lb higher than at last win are caution flags, the SR advantage (86 vs next-best Takeitorleaveit at 80) is meaningful in a Class 5 field of six, and no rival combines SR, form consistency and market support in the same way. Each-way alternative: Takeitorleaveit. Main danger: Takeitorleaveit — Takeitorleaveit (SR:80, 9/2) has steamed in 24% in the market — the strongest move of any runner — wears a first-time visor suggesting connections expect a step forward, and its form of 128223 shows consistent involvement at the sharp end, making it the most credible threat to the selection.
