Commentary

Strong-travelling type. Landed a third successive hurdle success in emphatic fashion at Cartmel in late-June. Set plenty to do when third at Perth prior to finishing well-held eighth of 17 in Welsh Champion Hurdle latest. Respected back in calmer waters, even with yard not firing on all cylinders.

What the class read says

The stable looks to have run this horse in stronger races to keep its official rating low — today's class drop may be intentional. Worth watching at a price.

Finished in the top 3 in 2 of 3 stronger races — strong class form.

Dropping 3 class levels from its toughest race — well-positioned today.
