Commentary

Winner of 4 races on the all-weather at Newcastle last year. He's 8 lb lower on turf (0-37) and this presumably a pipe-opener following 9 months away.

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.
