Commentary

Opened his account in 6f Hamilton novice in May. Back to form of late since fitted with cheekpieces, going freely when fifth in nursery at Haydock (7f, soft) a week ago. This return to 6f should suit but he has plenty to find on form.

What the class read says

Stepping up in class, but the evidence backs it — has run against higher-rated rivals and held its own. Its finishes have been edging past what its mark implies.

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 9th of 13.
