Commentary

Make big strides in 2025, winning twice and also finishing second on another 2 occasions. Ended that year on a low note, however, and little encouragement from last 2 starts. However, he's now below his last winning mark for a yard going much better. Capable of being in the mix.

What the class read says

Ran competitively despite going/trip that didn't suit it, at this same level — those runs look worse on paper than they were. Back in its own suited conditions today. A caution, though: it has NOT been beating its handicap mark — the favourable class picture isn't yet backed by mark-adjusted finishes.
