Commentary

Placed all 7 starts on the Flat for the Gosdens. Too free on stable debut but this half-brother to high-class hurdler Wicklow Brave made a decent start in this sphere at Cartmel when chasing home a subsequent 2-time winner.

What the class read says

Stepping up in class, but the evidence backs it — has run against higher-rated rivals and held its own. Crucially, it keeps finishing ahead of what its handicap mark implies — it looks ahead of the handicapper.

Dropping 1 class level from its toughest race — well-positioned today.
