Wally has spent his last five starts in B3 company — a grade above today's field — and while his finishing positions there were unremarkable (4th, 5th, 6th), he was competing against meaningfully better opponents with clear runs. Dropping back to B4, where he won on 9 April from T5 in an adjusted 27.32, he now has the fastest best time in this field. His first-bend rating of 62 is comfortably the best here, and his closer profile suits a race likely to be shaped by three early pacers burning energy ahead of him. The trainer's 60% win rate in the condition data adds a further layer of support. The main caveat is a T6 structural concern at Towcester and a thin ML sample at B4 460m, which keeps confidence at Tentative despite his clear advantages in bend figures and class relief.
