Commentary

Without a win on the Flat since 2021. Did run one of his better races of the year when 4¾-length second over C&D last time. This looks a deeper 0-55, though.

What the class read says

Has campaigned at a higher grade and now drops into weaker company. Dropping in class here looks deliberate, not a concession. Its finishes have been edging past what its mark implies.

Finished in the top 3 in 2 of 2 stronger races — strong class form.

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