Commentary

3-time winner in 2025 but struggled for form to start the current campaign. However, having slipped in the weights he has made the frame last 3 starts, over this C&D last month and at Doncaster 6 days ago. Now switches to a visor.

What the class read says

The stable looks to have run this horse in stronger races to keep its official rating low — today's class drop may be intentional. Worth watching at a price. Crucially, it keeps finishing ahead of what its handicap mark implies — it looks ahead of the handicapper.

Held its own mid-division in 6 of 6 stronger races — solid form context.

Dropping 3 class levels from its toughest race — well-positioned today.
