Commentary

Off the mark for the year at Chepstow in June and quickly resumed winning ways at Brighton last month, his fifth C&D success. However, undone by revised mark there since and record suggests he's not as good here.

Ran mid-division in 1 of 1 higher-class runs.

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