Mr Fox says

Ice Show (SR:70, 4/1) carries the highest SR in the field by 3 points and does so off a featherweight 9-4, the joint-lightest burden in the race — a meaningful advantage at a mile in Class 6. The GoingFit:+ confirms it handles today's good ground, the recent form string 556031 shows a last-time-out win and the market, though it has drifted a marginal 6%, retains a clear favouritism. David O'Meara books his stable's number-one jockey Daniel Tudhope (18%, 1949 runners) rather than Mark Winn on stablemate Sogniamo, a clear signal of yard intent. The 9-4 weight in a 14-runner field on a track where it has won before (Course:W1P1) makes this a straightforward case. Each-way alternative: Ey Up He's A Star. Main danger: Rua Mor — Rua Mor (SR:61, 17/2) has steamed in 22% in the market — the sharpest move in the field — suggesting strong stable confidence despite the DistFit:- and GoingFit:- flags, and if those concerns are overridden by the market intelligence it is the biggest threat to the selection.
