Commentary

Showed improved form when making a winning handicap debut in first-time headgear at Leicester (5f, good) in June. Back on the up with blinkers added (retained) when close second of 9 at Yarmouth (7f, good) last Tuesday. Came clear of the rest and looks well treated off the same mark.

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.
