Commentary

Dropped in grade for only his second handicap start and showed much more than previously when second at Down Royal (11f) last week, the race not getting to the bottom of him. Suddenly interesting after that.

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 3rd of 12. Recent form is on the up.
