1. Wind In Your Sails (IRE) – Total rating: 328.0
   This horse made a commendable debut at Kempton, finishing third, which shows potential for improvement. Although the jockey Rob Hornby has chosen another horse from the yard, this doesn’t detract from the potential that Wind In Your Sails has shown in its initial race.
2. Glencalvie (IRE) – Total rating: 322.3
   Glencalvie showed promise in its debut at Lingfield, finishing second, and it appears to have a decent potential for improvement. It responded well under pressure during that race, which bodes well for future performances. However, it’s worth noting that Glencalvie has had quite a long break since the last race (173 days), which might impact its performance.
3. Fleurir – Total rating: 319.7
   Fleurir has had two solid performances so far, finishing third at Lingfield and second at Newcastle. The horse bumped into a potentially Group-class filly at Newcastle, implying that it has faced tough competition. There’s a good chance for further progression, especially considering the five months gap between its races.
4. Value Added – Total rating: 318.2
   Value Added was narrowly denied in its only 2yo start at Newbury. The comment suggests the horse is held in high regard, which might hint at a promising future. Having a high regard for a horse with only one race under its belt can be seen as a positive sign, although more experience is definitely needed.
5. High Spirited (IRE) – Total rating: 304.1
   High Spirited made significant progress from its debut, finishing a close third at Newmarket. This horse appears to be capable of improving its performance further, however, the competition seems to be tough in this race.

The other horses lower in the ratings have positive comments about their abilities, but based on the total ratings alone, these five appear to be the top contenders. As the odds have been excluded from the analysis, it’s important to monitor the betting market for any significant movements, which could indicate a change in the horses’ perceived abilities.
