Vino Rosso is unbeaten in races less than 8.5f furlongs. Routers in general excel in these extended sprints, probably due to superior stamina and the likelihood of a fast, contested pace. Note how Carter rival Honor Up has blossomed since cutting back shorter than a flat mile.

That said, World of Trouble lays over the field in terms of early speed. Only Skyler's Scramjet appears to have any hint of a chance getting close to him early.
