mudder
Wet track racer
A mudder is a racehorse that performs well on wet, muddy tracks.
Some horses struggle in sloppy conditions while mudders seem to thrive, making them valuable picks when rain affects race day.
The term extends metaphorically to anyone who excels in difficult or messy circumstances.
That filly's a real mudder—she loves it when the track is soaked.
