Commentary

Sixth Dundalk success when seeing off 6 rivals in a 7f claimer in March (final run for Denis Hogan). Off 4 months ahead of first run for new yard and he's yet to win on turf.

What the class read says

Stepping up in class, but the evidence backs it — has run against higher-rated rivals and held its own. A caution, though: it has NOT been beating its handicap mark — the favourable class picture isn't yet backed by mark-adjusted finishes.

Dropping 3 class levels from its toughest race — well-positioned today.
