Commentary

Already looks a much better chaser than hurdler but mark reflects that and he can't have been right given how badly he ran back in this sphere when last seen in April.

What the class read says

Stepping up in grade without clear higher-class evidence yet. Not automatically a negative, especially for a lightly-raced or progressive type. Its recent finishes fall short of what its mark implies — the rating may flatter it.
