Commentary

Hasn't set the world alight on the Flat, including last time but has finished runner-up on all 3 starts in juvenile maiden hurdles, though was some way below his previous efforts at Killarney when last seen in this sphere in August. Sets the standard at his best but needs to bounce back.

What the class read says

Ran competitively despite going/trip that didn't suit it, at this same level — those runs look worse on paper than they were. Back in its own suited conditions today. Crucially, it keeps finishing ahead of what its handicap mark implies — it looks ahead of the handicapper.
