Commentary

A fair and lightly-raced maiden on Flat in first half of 2024. Returned from 17 months off and displayed aptitude for hurdling when third of 9 here (16.8f) here last December but well held at Wetherby 3 weeks later and again offered little when remote third at Bangor 25 days ago. Makes handicap bow.

What the class read says

The stable looks to have run this horse in stronger races to keep its official rating low — today's class drop may be intentional. Worth watching at a price.

Finished in the top 3 in 2 of 3 stronger races — strong class form.

Dropping 1 class level from its toughest race — well-positioned today.

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 4th of 8. Recent form is easing off.
