When the target array gets constructed, it also gets sorted.
The redirect=1  will redirect always to the last entry in th etarget
array, which is the last entry in alphabetical order.
I cannot remember this moment why I added
   sort($tar);
at the end of function FoxTargetList (which constructs the array of
target  page names). It may well be safe to remove (comment) that
line of code. Perhaps I could add a parameter with which one can
avoid the sort?

I think the best method to ensure redirection goes to a specific page
when there are multiple page targets
is to set the redirect explicetly. Try something like this for your form:

(:fox creategroup redirect="{$$groupname}.APage" pagecheck=1:)
