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?

Tanking Along

The soft ground was not its usual preference (good). The 2m4f trip sits inside its best range. Its Race DNA fit before the race was 48 (questions to answer).

Our read from the result and the race conditions. An explanation, not a prediction.
