Commentary

Hasn't looked entirely straightforward but did win a pair of 1m handicaps this summer. Probably remains in better form than latest 9 lengths fourth of 6 at Sandown (1m, good to soft) might suggest.

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 1 class level from its toughest race — well-positioned today.
