The best A1 form in this race by a clear margin. Two A1 wins at 92 and 88, with places at 87 and 85 — four consecutive runs of 85+ before the most recent 58 which is the one concern. The form trajectory overall reads 85→88→92→87→58, and that 58 could be a one-off poor run or the start of a decline. On balance, the weight of evidence favours the former — four exceptional runs shouldn't be dismissed because of one bad one. The Fader profile (EP 70, CS 17) is the structural worry at Yarmouth's fair track. He'll lead by 2-3 lengths through the first bend from T2, but the long home straight is where Faders are caught. However, the class override applies here: his A1 form of 85-92 is significantly above the field average. A dog that peaks at 92 at A1 can fade from 1st to 1st when the opposition's best is 74-78. The fade takes him from brilliant to good rather than from good to bad. T2 at A1 wins 20.49% from 244 runs, and his bend rating of 58 gives a strong first-bend advantage. Windebank at 20% WR is neutral.
