Commentary

Opened his account for the season over C&D with the headgear discarded and added to his tally at Brighton (1¼m) last month. Never made any impact after a slow start at Redcar (1¼m, good) 11 days ago.

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