- Farasi Lane (IRE) – Total Rating 360.6
Farasi Lane comes out on top based on total ratings. The horse has performed well on AW this year, including a big-field win at Southwell. Despite a recent disappointment at Goodwood, it was due to a plate issue, which is an irregular event. The return to AW should bode well for Farasi Lane. - Just Amber – Total Rating 358.2
Just Amber ranks second in terms of total ratings. With two fast-ground 1m handicaps wins last summer, she’s shown potential. Her recent performance at Lingfield was impressive, suggesting that she’s in good form. - Billy Mill – Total Rating 352.0
Billy Mill comes in third. The horse’s previous run at Newcastle and recent good run at Kempton indicate a reliable form. His return to 1m should not pose a problem and he appears capable of a solid performance. - Tahitian Prince (FR) – Total Rating 340.8
Tahitian Prince ranks fourth on total ratings. He achieved three C&D wins in 2021, although his form has been less convincing this year. However, the comments suggest that a revival could be imminent, so he might perform better than his rating suggests.
Additional considerations:
Two Tempting (IRE) – Total Rating 314.8
Two Tempting is lower down the ratings but has some positives to consider. He won this race one year ago and ran well in his recent return. Although not as strong at Ascot, getting back on AW could be beneficial for him.
Jade Country – Total Rating 304.1
Jade Country is another horse to watch, despite a lower total rating. After showing improvement and securing a win at Yarmouth last year, Jade Country has since been sold and is now racing with new equipment, which may lead to a positive change in performance.
In conclusion, the rankings based on total ratings point towards Farasi Lane, Just Amber, and Billy Mill as the top contenders for this race. However, horses like Two Tempting and Jade Country could also prove competitive based on the positive comments about their potential for improvement.
