Commentary

Improved to make a winning handicap debut at Beverley on return and he was again a narrow winner at Nottingham in June. Further progress when just edged out at Lingfield 5 weeks ago and he remains of interest.

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.
