Speed rank 1 in the field drawn in the best-performing trap — that combination at Monmore 480m A9 is the strongest analytical signal available. Speed rating of 53 leads the field and trap 1 wins nearly one in four at this grade (24.6% from over 240 runs). Has been running in A8 grade and is stepping down to A9 today — the class relief should help. Ten course and distance runs with two wins (20%). A fader profile means this dog goes out hard early, which from the rail with a pace advantage is exactly the right approach at Monmore. Form peak of 48 four runs ago, with a 42 most recently at A8. In a race where the composite leader is from the worst trap, this is the dog with the structural advantage to match.
