Commentary

Low-mileage sort who capitalised on a falling mark and justified good support in the process when opening his account in 12-runner C&D handicap 23 days ago. Did well under the circumstances then (encountered trouble in running) and a 3 lb rise should see him very competitive again.

What the class read says

Class levels are broadly matched — recent runs give an even picture at this grade. Crucially, it keeps finishing ahead of what its handicap mark implies — it looks ahead of the handicapper.

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