Commentary

Inconsistent for Ben Pauling. Made a respectable start for new yard when sixth of 9 at Cartmel (2¾m, good) in July but wouldn't be sure to build on it.

What the class read says

Class levels are broadly matched — recent runs give an even picture at this grade. Its recent finishes fall short of what its mark implies — the rating may flatter it.

Ran mid-division in 1 of 1 higher-class runs.

Dropping 2 class levels from its toughest race — well-positioned today.
