Commentary

Lingfield novice winner on debut and useful form in defeat this year, eighth of 19 in the King George V Stakes here (1½m) at the Royal Meeting. Gelded prior to a below-par effort at this course last time, but he could bounce back now up in trip and switched to a visor.

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 6th of 6. Recent form is on the up.
