Commentary

Useful form, winning 2 novices but failed to make a significant impact at Chester and Goodwood on his first 2 starts in handicap company. More like it returned to more conventional track when fourth of 11 in handicap at Sandown (1¼m, soft, 9/1) 21 days ago. Still looks on a workable mark.

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.

Ran mid-division in 1 of 1 higher-class runs.

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