Commentary

Revitalised by the application of a hood/drop to a sprint trip when making all in a 11-runner handicap at Kempton (6f) 7 days ago. Carries a penalty now but that rated as a career best and he has to be on the shortlist again.

What the class read says

Class levels are broadly matched — recent runs give an even picture at this grade. Crucially, it keeps finishing ahead of what its handicap mark implies — it looks ahead of the handicapper.

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