Commentary

Standout effort this season when winning veterans' event at Catterick in May. Went freely to post and subsequently ran poorly at Beverley (5f, heavy) last time. Needs to bounce back.

What the projection says

Edging ahead of its price lately — not a standalone signal; it only counts alongside a short-priced top pick. Projected 9th of 10.
