Commentary

A fair 7f winner in 2025. Yet to add to it this season but largely running well, including when an unlucky-in-running sixth of 12 in handicap at Leicester (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago. Well in the mix.

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.

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 14th of 18. Recent form is easing off.
