Commentary

Capitalised on falling mark to record third C&D win earlier this month. 6 lb higher here but that still leaves him feasibly treated and looks sure to go well again given past course exploits.

What the class read says

Has campaigned at a higher grade and now drops into weaker company. Dropping in class here looks deliberate, not a concession. Crucially, it keeps finishing ahead of what its handicap mark implies — it looks ahead of the handicapper.

Held its own mid-division in 2 of 2 stronger races — solid form context.

Dropping 3 class levels from its toughest race — well-positioned today.
