Commentary

Off the mark for the season at Thirsk in May and largely respectable efforts in defeat of late, responding well to application of blinkers when a close-up tenth in Silver Cup at Ripon (6f) 32 days ago. Draw in 12 less-than-ideal, however.

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