The standout pick on quality grounds, with an average performance of 70 and a peak of 88 that dwarfs the ceiling of every rival in this field. Has run at S1 level and above, showing that S2 represents a slight step down in grade from the highest class. The inside trap at 400 metres can be a mild disadvantage in terms of running room on the first bend, but a dog operating at the 88-peak level should have more than enough raw speed to overcome any positional difficulties. Even running at average level, a rating of 70 would be competitive for the win at S2. The class argument is compelling here.
