Commentary

Showed himself still capable of smart form when winning over C&D in February but little to shout about since and is probably best watched. Won this corresponding race in 2024.

What the class read says

Ran competitively despite going/trip that didn't suit it, at this same level — those runs look worse on paper than they were. Back in its own suited conditions today. A caution, though: it has NOT been beating its handicap mark — the favourable class picture isn't yet backed by mark-adjusted finishes.

Class-adjusted form 8.7 /10 (raw 6.1)
