Commentary

Ended a losing run over 7f at this course in March. Made the frame when last seen at Ayr (7f, good to firm) at the beginning of May. Steps back down in trip and returns to the all-weather.

What the class read says

Stepping up in class, but the evidence backs it — has run against higher-rated rivals and held its own. Crucially, it keeps finishing ahead of what its handicap mark implies — it looks ahead of the handicapper.

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