Commentary

Lightly raced in recent times but have to go back to 2024 for his last win. Was placed all 5 starts last season prior to a lesser run at Huntingdon and he's becoming a regular in this race (second in 2023 and fourth in 2024).

What the class read says

Stepping up in grade today, into tougher company than it has been meeting. Its recent finishes fall short of what its mark implies — the rating may flatter it.
