Commentary

Four-time C&D winner. Looked to be returning to form heading into the spring but finished well held after 3 months off at Southwell in July, subsequently found to have bled. Others more persuasive.

What the class read says

Class levels are broadly matched — recent runs give an even picture at this grade. Crucially, it keeps finishing ahead of what its handicap mark implies — it looks ahead of the handicapper.

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