Commentary

Capitalised on a reduced mark on return at Navan before doing well to defy a penalty at Killarney in July. Still looked in good form both starts last month, beaten 3¼ lengths in a big-field Cork handicap (1½m, good to soft) latest. Player for capable Irish yard (0-5 with UK runners to date).

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