Commentary

Resumed winning ways in convincing fashion in a 6-runner 19f minor chase at this track in June before running down the field in the Galway Plate last time. Stamina to prove at this slightly longer trip and indications so far this season are he's no longer the smart performer he once was.

What the class read says

Has campaigned at a higher grade and now drops into weaker company. Dropping in class here looks deliberate, not a concession. A caution, though: it has NOT been beating its handicap mark — the favourable class picture isn't yet backed by mark-adjusted finishes.

Finished in the top 3 in 2 of 2 stronger races — strong class form.

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