Shows early pace from the inside box and has placed twice at this grade and trip in recent starts, including a second-place finish last time out at A8 grade. The front-running Fader profile means she gets to the lead quickly but may be vulnerable as the Closers come through in the home straight over the full 500 metres. Trap 1 is historically below average at this grade and distance, producing just 18.5% of winners from 151 runs. Capable of being prominent early and setting up a fast tempo, but the pace profile works against her in the later stages at Hove 500 metres.
Best structural trap plus top speed rating — the main threat to the selection, with the grade jump from A10 to A8 the only reservation.
Correct pace profile for Hove 500m and has won at this grade, but inconsistent form and modest speed rating make her a mid-field proposition.
Highly consistent but Fader profile over 500m Hove is a structural concern — likely to place rather than win.
All form at 285m D-grade — stepping up dramatically in both distance and grade. Cannot be recommended on available evidence.
Best structural draw, proven A7-A8 500m winner at Hove, Closer profile aligned with track character — strongest analytical case in the field.
Speed rank 1 wins 27.14% at Hove 500m A8 — strongest signal. Traps 4 and 6 dominant (24.65% and 25.38%). At middle grades, composite is less reliable — speed and course form take priority.
