Commentary

Back on the up and landed 5f handicaps at Nottingham and Leicester recently. Up another 4 lb but scored readily on latter occasion so big shout in his hat-trick bid.

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.

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