Mr Fox says

Getawhisky (SR 118, 15/8) has been backed in aggressively — a 37% market move is the strongest signal in this field by a wide margin, and Harry Skelton (27% strike rate, 1688 career rides) is a top-tier booking for a small-field beginners' chase. The drop of two classes (ClassMv:↓2) is significant, and Dan Skelton's yard (22% strike rate, 2616 runners) operates at elite level — they don't send horses with this jockey combination for fun. While the form string 4F145- contains a fall and patchy figures, the class drop and market confidence overwhelmingly outweigh those concerns. GoingFit:? is a mild unknown, but good ground is the most neutral going bucket and least likely to expose a vulnerability. Each-way alternative: Siog Geal. Main danger: Siog Geal — Siog Geal (SR 131, 5/2) is the O'Brien yard's #1 runner — Fern O'Brien is a 5lb claimer reducing the weight burden effectively, the SR leads all realistic contenders, and a 7% market move suggests some confidence, making it the most likely horse to trouble the selection.
