The obvious pick on merit, and merit is hard to argue with. Dropping down from OR3 competition into A2 today, she carries the fastest speed rating in the field and the highest average performance rating — a clear step above this grade on recent evidence. Form shows P66, P76, P63, P89, P85 — the 89 and 85 are outstanding scores that put her in a different league from the opposition. Eight course and distance runs with three wins and five places confirm she handles Hove 500m well. She is a Closer, which suits the 500m trip better than it would a sprint, and the bumpy Hove surface tends to favour heavier-striding, powerful greyhounds which she is. The worry is a low class suitability score, but she is dropping into A2 FROM harder grades — the suitability figure reflects historical A2 results at an earlier stage and should not be held against her now.
