Commentary

Versatile course winner who ended a long losing run in smooth fashion at Carlisle (11f) in July. Better than ever when justifying support to resume winning ways at Beverley (1½m, heavy) latest. Does face some better 3-y-o opposition off 4 lb higher this time.

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.
