Commentary

Gained a fourth win at Brighton when successful there in June. After a couple of below-par performances, ran respectably in a higher grade when fourth of 7 back at Brighton a month ago. Capable of going well at this level.

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. Crucially, it keeps finishing ahead of what its handicap mark implies — it looks ahead of the handicapper.

Finished in the top 3 in 2 of 6 stronger races — strong class form.

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