Five dogs running today carry composite scores that have shifted sharply upward from their previous baseline, and together they represent the most interesting profile of runners building toward something.
Woolies Express has made the biggest jump in absolute terms, moving from a score of 25 to 57 — a gain of 32 points. She lines up tonight at 20:48 at Kilkenny in A4 grade over 525 metres from trap 6. A jump this size typically reflects a dog who has recently found a distance or grade that fits — either a step down in class revealing untapped quality, or a return to a more comfortable trip where the speed data now makes sense.
Drombeg Doro shows a similar trajectory, up 28 points from 32 to 60. That new score is strong enough to compete at the top end of the field, and she runs in the 19:13 at Romford in OR grade over 575 metres from trap 4. Dogs improving into OR grade over staying distances are worth filing away — the trajectory here is pointing in the right direction at the right moment.
Thatsagoodone rounds out the upper tier of movers, climbing 28 points from 17 to 45 for the 21:31 at Tralee in A3 grade over 500 metres from trap 4. A rise from 17 to 45 can reflect a dog who was working through a difficult patch and has found form again, or one where recent race data has finally given the model enough to work with.
None of these dogs is a certainty. Form improvements with shallow histories can reflect one good run as much as genuine progression. But if you are building your kennel on the tracker, all five are worth adding to follow how the trajectory develops over the coming weeks.
