Commentary

Took a step back in the right direction when 3½ lengths sixth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.5f) in August but hasn't built on that in 2 starts since, last of 12 at Bath (1¼m) 19 days ago. Blinkers applied back down in trip.

What the class read says

Has campaigned at a higher grade and now drops into weaker company. Dropping in class here looks deliberate, not a concession. Its finishes have been edging past what its mark implies.

Ran mid-division in 1 of 2 higher-class runs.

Dropping 3 class levels from its toughest race — well-positioned today.

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 10th of 14. Recent form is easing off.
