Commentary

Has proved consistent rather than progressive on all-weather. Failed to capitalise on a good opportunity when ½-length second in Lingfield maiden (1¼m) on return last time. Now back on turf for the first time since debut and did look to find 1m on the sharp side on sole previous try at this trip.

Dropping 2 class levels from its toughest race — well-positioned today.
