Commentary

Better than ever in a first-time visor when winning 11-runner handicap hurdle at Wincanton (2½m, good) in April, racing clear having jumped more fluently than usual. Handicapper took a dim view with a hefty rise and he was brushed aside at Southwell 5 weeks later. Cheekpieces now tried.

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. A caution, though: it has NOT been beating its handicap mark — the favourable class picture isn't yet backed by mark-adjusted finishes.
