Monmore Race 4

Monmore Dog Of The Month September 2025 - Swift Arson

Stake: $885

SWIFT ARSON (1) was a last start winner (28.97) from Box 2 at Monmore. Winner at his latest appearance in the quickest time on the card. Looks to have an edge on most of these. LONGACRES BIRDIE (4) has a strong winning strike-rate over this journey with two wins and a placing from five tries. Recorded a nose win (28.91) in an A6 last time at Monmore. Makes strong appeal on best. SUGAR ROSE (2) is racing very well, claiming an A7 two back then scored a 1.5 lengths win of an A6 at Monmore over 480m (28.80) last time. Goes up a notch but can measure up with a repeat of latest. UP THE ANTI (6) has been in great recent form scoring two on end, the latest an A6 by 12 lengths at Monmore over 480m (29.34). Faces stiffer opposition but hard to leave out.

Consistent performer who is new here. Nice win last start by a nose at Monmore (28.91) beating Drumdoit Murphy in an A6 on October 11. Key chance on that latest effort.
