Commentary

Just touched off on debut at Wolverhampton (6f) before proving too keen at Chester. Ran well considering proximity to a strong pace when 6½ lengths tenth of 21 to Orthodox in Norfolk Stakes at Royal Ascot (5f) 87 days ago and this much more suitable (gelded and had a breathing operation since).

What the class read says

Has campaigned at a higher grade and now drops into weaker company. Dropping in class here looks deliberate, not a concession.

Held its own mid-division in 2 of 2 stronger races — solid form context.

Dropping 4 class levels from its toughest race — well-positioned today.
