Commentary

Took advantage of a drop back in grade when winning apprentice handicap at Carlisle in June. Excuses on both his starts at C&D since (returned lame last time) but others still make more appeal.

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.
