Commentary

Scored at Kelso on hurdling debut last October and in good form after until a below-par (in first-time hood) sixth of 15 in handicap at Ayr (2m, soft) in April. Not out of things despite 5-month absence.

What the class read says

The stable looks to have run this horse in stronger races to keep its official rating low — today's class drop may be intentional. Worth watching at a price. A caution, though: it has NOT been beating its handicap mark — the favourable class picture isn't yet backed by mark-adjusted finishes.

Held its own mid-division in 4 of 4 stronger races — solid form context.

Dropping 3 class levels from its toughest race — well-positioned today.
