About fit scores: Race DNA compares today's conditions (going, trip and course) with the conditions a horse has shown it handles. It is an analysis aid to help you form your own view – not a prediction, a tip or a recommendation to bet.

Why did it win?

Givehertilxmas

The soft ground matched its best conditions. The 7f trip was outside its usual range of 7½f–1m. Its Race DNA fit before the race was 50 (mixed fit).
