Commentary

Three-time C&D winner who was at the top of his game when completing a Ffos Las double (6f, good) in August. Didn't find as much as looked likely when beaten 4 lengths on hat-trick bid here (6f, soft) latest. This looks a better race, too.

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.
