Won a handicap at Ascot over this trip in August and showed even better level of form when third of 9 in similar event there 20 days ago, covering more ground than the first 2. Work to do back up in grade given the unexposed nature of his rivals.

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.
