Commentary

Confirmed the promise of his return when opening account in handicap at Salisbury (7f) in May. Has gone backwards from that effort in 3 subsequent outings, though.

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.
