Is that like Oedipus in Colonus?  Iphigenia in Tauris?  Iphigenia in 
Brooklyn?

=Does= he excel in Potions?  I don't think we even know that.

No, I don't want to re-engage the Is Draco a top student? question, 
which leads inevitably into the slimy pit that is the Is Draco 
handsome? question,* but IIRC, no one ever came up with concrete 
evidence that he does particularly well or badly in any particular 
class.  It's an open question.
