Commentary

Minor promise only in Ireland but produced a much-improved effort fitted with first-time cheekpieces when winning 12-runner handicap at Uttoxeter (2½m, good to soft) on yard debut in May. Ran no sort of race at Southwell the following month and off since (has had a breathing operation).

What the class read says

Stepping up in grade without clear higher-class evidence yet. Not automatically a negative, especially for a lightly-raced or progressive type. Its recent finishes fall short of what its mark implies — the rating may flatter it.

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 4th of 10.
