Commentary

Plenty of good efforts last season, including fifth in this race on soft. Another good effort over C&D when runner-up on good to firm in July. Latest Haydock effort can be forgiven as he was on the wrong part of the track.

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