Commentary

Improved since having a second breathing operation and best work at the finish when third in a pair of 5f Beverley handicaps last 2 runs. Big shout in his bid to gain a first win at the eighth attempt.

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.
