Bounced back to winning ways at Newcastle in January and ran creditably when fifth of 14 there in June. However, has yet to win on turf (rated much lower on this surface), taking his record to 0-22 at Ayr 18 days ago.

What the class read says

The stable looks to have run this horse in stronger races to keep its official rating low — today's class drop may be intentional. Worth watching at a price. Its finishes have been edging past what its mark implies.

Held its own mid-division in 3 of 5 stronger races — solid form context.

Dropping 2 class levels from its toughest race — well-positioned today.
