Commentary

Successful on all-weather over 5f at Newcastle and Lingfield in the spring. Ended his time with Richard Spencer with thirds over C&D and at Windsor in the first half of this month. New connections recently acquired him for 7,000 gns.

What the class read says

Stepping up in class, but the evidence backs it — has run against higher-rated rivals and held its own. Its finishes have been edging past what its mark implies.

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