Commentary

Sole success across both codes came in juvenile hurdle in Ireland in 2022. Has finished runner-up in the previous couple of renewals of this race (now 3 lb lower than last year) and has been in reasonable heart on the Flat lately. No surprise to see him double his tally in a change of headgear.

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.

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