The most fascinating runner on today's entire card. An average performance rating of 76 is by far the highest in this race and one of the highest on the card, and that average is built on a visible form that includes a 99-rated run — a genuinely exceptional performance that suggests A1 or Open-grade ability lurking inside an A2 runner. The two most recent runs show 82 and then a 44 — a clunker sandwiched in recent form — before the 99 peak. The critical handicap here is trap 1 at A2 Monmore 480m, which is the worst structural draw at this grade at approximately 16%, less than half the win rate of trap 6. A dog with this performance ceiling would ordinarily be a banker in any standard draw. But at this track, at this grade, the trap 1 penalty is significant. If this dog overcomes the draw, it has the raw ability to beat anything on the card today.
