Commentary

In top form round here this summer, winning twice. Not discredited when fifth at Beverley (1¼m, heavy) 25 days ago. Looks high enough in the weights for now.

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.
