Trap 1 is a big factor in A9 grade over Monmore's 480m trip, winning close to a quarter of races here - well clear of every other box, with trap 5 the one to avoid at barely one in seven. Stormy Bonito gets the plum draw and matches the pace of the leading pack, which is a strong combination in a race that otherwise lacks a standout on the clock. Longacres Creed is comfortably the fastest dog in the field but has to overcome the worst trap in the race to prove it.
Drawn in by far the best box in this grade, which wins nearly a quarter of the time here, and backs the draw up with pace that puts her among the leading group on the clock. One win and three places from nine course and distance runs is a solid platform and she finished fourth last time out, not far away. The prime trap combined with competitive current form makes her the one to beat.
Won last time out and is the most consistent runner in the field on the pace-reliability figures, backing that up with the second-fastest recent times. Two wins and three places from ten course and distance runs is a strong record. The draw in trap 4 isn't ideal but the current form and reliability make her a serious threat to the selection.
Tends to miss the break and race from off the pace, which is a tough way to make ground at Monmore. Two wins from nine course and distance runs is a fair record but she's generally found compromised runs recently. Placed second last time out but the slow starts are a persistent issue.
Won last time out at the grade above, so she arrives with a touch of confidence even though today's drop is a sensible one rather than a boost. One win from three course and distance runs at this specific level. Sits mid-pack on the clock but the fresh win is a point in her favour.
Comfortably the fastest dog in this field on recent times, well clear of the rest. The problem is the draw - trap 5 has been by far the weakest box in this grade at Monmore, winning barely one in seven. Only one win from ten course and distance runs despite the pace. If she can overcome the draw the speed is there to trouble anyone, but it's a big ask from that box.
Rated the highest on recent form of anyone in this field, but that reading comes from a sprint over 264m rather than tonight's much longer trip, so it needs treating with real caution. Stepping up sharply in both distance and grade in one move is a lot to ask. One run at this course and distance, which she won, offers a crumb of encouragement, but the jump up is significant.
Key insight: Trap 1 is a major factor in A9 grade at Monmore over 480m, winning 24.5% from 253 runs - nearly double the worst box, trap 5, at 13.5%. This is one of the more trap-dependent grades at the track.
