Harbour Flyer colours Generated livery card for Harbour Flyer, saddlecloth 2 — red and white quarters with a navy cap and a red sulky, over a light bay coat swatch.

A runner on this circuit carries colours rather than a photograph. There is nothing to photograph: the livery is drawn from the same values the simulator renders, so the card above and the screen agree.

The rating is not a handicapper's mark — this circuit has no handicapper. It is the runner's mean published weighting: the average block of numbers, out of 1,000, that GP-Draw 4.2 has given it across the cards it appears on. Divide by ten for the mean true win percentage.

The record reads starts–wins–seconds–thirds and the form string runs oldest to newest, so the last figure is the most recent finishing position. Figures are as at 25 October 2026 on the circuit clock and move only when a card this runner is declared in is drawn. There is no prizemoney on this circuit: nothing is staked, so nothing is won, and the money column is printed as an em dash rather than filled with a number that does not exist.

Every card

5 published · 2 drawn · 3 to run

Every card Harbour Flyer appears on, newest first, read off the cards themselves. Numbers is the block of 1,000 the weighting table gave this runner in that race; price is the same figure in the other notation. A card still to run has no finishing position, because nothing has been drawn yet.

Fields are fixed when a card is published, so there are no scratchings and no starting price: the price in this table is the one the card carried. The draw has brought this runner out first once on the published programme. How a virtual race is decided works through the arithmetic.

Prices on this page are the draw weighting in another notation. They are reference figures published with the card, not odds available anywhere, and not a betting recommendation.

The form line

the desk, on what the weightings have done

Harbour Flyer holds 352 numbers of the 1,000 in the Class B Mobile Pace, for 35.2 per cent true and 40.8 per cent implied. That is the largest block GP-Draw has given any runner on the 21 published cards. It holds 338 the following night in the Gidgee Pace at $2.50, the third largest behind that 352 and the 342 Southern Split held in the Handicap Hurdle.

It won the Standing Start Trot over 2240 metres off 165 numbers at $5.29, rating 2:39.5, with Marnie Kessel in the sulky. Next start, at Kurrajong over 1609 metres, it held 81 numbers at $10.46 from barrier eight and finished seventh of eight, 9.7 lengths back. The two results are drawn from different tables and nothing passes between them.

The oddity in its programme is the Kurrajong Mile itself: 48 numbers, barrier six, $18.18, the second thinnest block in the demo race. Twenty-four minutes later, at the same venue over the same 1609 metres, it holds 352. A price is the block in another notation, so the price moves with it — see how a virtual race is decided.
