I think Draco can still be second in their class, or equally high up 
there, however. Lucius may have been referring to the fact that Draco 
isn't number one- Lucius may be very demanding in grades, and might 
be exaggerating when he talks of Draco becoming a plunderer. Lucius 
may be saying, 'though if his grades don't pick up', and meaning, 'if 
you aren't valedictorian, I will be very angry with you.'
