Commentary

Winless from 8 starts, though has gone close on last 2 outings at Doncaster and Haydock, unlucky not to collect on the latter occasion having been shuffled back at a crucial point.

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.
