What the class read says

Stepping up in grade without clear higher-class evidence yet. Not automatically a negative, especially for a lightly-raced or progressive type. Crucially, it keeps finishing ahead of what its handicap mark implies — it looks ahead of the handicapper.

What the projection says

Beating its price historically confirms the short-priced top pick — model and market read it the same way. Projected 3rd of 9. Recent form is easing off.
