Commentary

Thirty two runs since last win in 2024 but he's running well this season, placed for sixth time with third of 15 in handicap at York (1m, good to firm) 14 days ago. Ought to be thereabouts once more.

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