Commentary

Forward-going type who saw off 3 next-time-out winners when registering win number 3 at Hexham (23f) in late-June. Shaped as if needing the run there 3 months on but his yard still appears to be finding its feet for the season.

What the class read says

Class levels are broadly matched — recent runs give an even picture at this grade. Its recent finishes fall short of what its mark implies — the rating may flatter it.

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