Commentary

Capitalised on a reduced mark in good fashion when landing a second 2m Sedgefield win in March. Back to his best with a run under his belt when 6½-length second over the same C&D last time. This probably isn't his ideal set-up, but Brian Hughes knows him well (can flatter to deceive).

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.

What the projection says

Beating its price historically confirms the short-priced top pick — model and market read it the same way. Projected 3rd of 4. Recent form is on the up.
