Commentary

Finished well when 7½ lengths behind his stablemate in this corresponding event 12 months ago. Ran well when beaten 2 lengths in a very condensed finish at Leopardstown (13f, good to firm) latest. Tried in another change of headgear and will at least be suited by this stiffer test of stamina.

What the projection says

Finishes ahead of its price historically, but the delivery record alone does not predict today's finish — it only counts alongside a short-priced top pick. Projected 16th of 33. Recent form is on the up.
