Commentary

Maiden proving inconsistent this year and didn't convince with his attitude here (6f) last month. Change of headgear (has finished runner-up twice over 5f when fitted with cheekpieces).

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