Mr Fox’s call
Parisencore
SPECULATIVE Advised 5/1 SP 5/1 Est. 19%
Mr Fox says
Parisencore (SR:125, 5/1, 11-2) is the most rounded profile in this small field. Proven at the trip (DistFit:+) — the only runner who can say that — and a course winner with a further two places at Wetherby (Course:W1P2), confirming a genuine affinity for this track. Dropping a class (ClassMv:↓1) off a mark only 3lb higher than last win (MarkMv:+3) and backed with a 7% market move in (Mkt:in7%). Trainer Nicky Richards (16% strike rate, 270 runners) and Danny McMenamin (15%, 580 runners) are a reliable combination, and at 5lb less than the two co-favourites, the weight advantage over Breizh River is meaningful on good-to-firm ground. Each-way alternative: Genois. Main danger: Genois — Genois (SR:128, 5/1) has an outstanding course record (Course:W2P3), is backed (Mkt:in11%), and drops 5lb in weight versus the co-favourites at 11-2, with a recent form line showing a win and two seconds — if the 117-day absence is no concern, this is the horse most likely to pounce.
