Commentary

Prolific pointer who opened Rules account at Uttoxeter (3¼m, soft) last November. Good second on 3m return there in July and 23f at Worcester didn't place enough emphasis on stamina for him latest. The extra yardage here will be in his favour. First-time visor replaces cheekpieces. Gets the vote.

What the class read says

Class levels are broadly matched — recent runs give an even picture at this grade. Its recent finishes fall short of what its mark implies — the rating may flatter it.

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