Mr Fox says

Kelpie Grey (SR 69, 15/8) is the top-rated horse in the field by a clear margin and carries a favourable 9-6, with a MarkMv:-22 indicating he is running off a mark substantially below his last winning mark — a significant handicap advantage in Class 6. The market has responded with a 9% shortening (Mkt:in9%), Paul Mulrennan booked at 14% career strike rate, and the horse has course form (W2P3 at Musselburgh). The GoingFit:- is the one concern, but the -22 mark drop and superior SR suggest he can overcome soft-ground reservations in this grade. Jim Goldie operates at 14% overall and is a proven handler of this type. Each-way alternative: Monhammer. Main danger: Jkr Cobbler — Jkr Cobbler (SR 61, 7/1) has steamed in 31% in the market — the biggest mover in the race — carries a GoingFit:+ edge that is directly relevant today on Good to Soft, and at 9-7 is lightly weighted relative to the field.
