Commentary

Winner of 16-runner handicap at Naas (10.6f, good to soft, 25/1) last October. Off since a below-par run at the Curragh later that month but was second in claiming company on his 2025 reappearance.

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