Commentary

Underlined why he's on a long losing run (didn't knuckle down) when well-backed fourth of 7 at Catterick last time. Does benefit from an ease in grade, though.

What the class read says

Class levels are broadly matched — recent runs give an even picture at this grade. Crucially, it keeps finishing ahead of what its handicap mark implies — it looks ahead of the handicapper.

Dropping 1 class level from its toughest race — well-positioned today.
