Commentary

Useful effort when narrowly winning a Longchamp handicap (7f) in late-May. Changed hands for €80,000 and bright start to life on these shores when close sixth in Summer Cup at Thirsk (1m) last month. Well held dropped to 6f at the York Ebor meeting since but should find this more suitable.

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.
