Commentary

Much improved on second handicap start when winning 17-runner contest at Nottingham (5f) in April. Below that level on final outing Kevin Philippart De Foy but has shaped a bit better than the bare result on both outings for current yard and ought to be capable of adding to his sole success.

What the class read says

The stable looks to have run this horse in stronger races to keep its official rating low — today's class drop may be intentional. Worth watching at a price. Crucially, it keeps finishing ahead of what its handicap mark implies — it looks ahead of the handicapper.

Held its own mid-division in 3 of 4 stronger races — solid form context.

Dropping 1 class level from its toughest race — well-positioned today.
