Commentary

Plenty of good efforts last season but those have been less frequent this campaign, well held in the Bronze Cup at Ayr most recently. Back on his last winning mark as a result but needs to show more before becoming of interest.

What the class read says

Ran competitively despite going/trip that didn't suit it, at this same level — those runs look worse on paper than they were. Back in its own suited conditions today. Crucially, it keeps finishing ahead of what its handicap mark implies — it looks ahead of the handicapper.

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

Dropping 2 class levels from its toughest race — well-positioned today.
