Afternoon Tea (IRE) has had modest performances recently, and What An Icon is a lightly-raced maiden who needs to show more to be competitive.

Mitchell & Co. Building Services Handicap
1m

Based on the provided ratings, here is the ranking of the horses in totals order:

  1. Warren Hill (IRE) – Total: 316.2
  2. Outrace (IRE) – Total: 283.1
  3. Butterfly Effect (IRE) – Total: 277.9
  4. Kings Code – Total: 268.5

Now let’s analyze and assess the top contenders based on the comments provided:

  1. Warren Hill (IRE): Warren Hill shaped encouragingly in his last outing after a 6-month break and a breathing operation. He finished third in a handicap at Leicester and showed potential for further improvement. With leading claims, Warren Hill is considered the top contender in this race.
  2. Outrace (IRE): Outrace broke a frustrating run of seconds with a win at Kempton. However, the horse struggled in heavy conditions at Doncaster in the most recent race and is now dropping back in trip. The change in distance could be a positive factor.
  3. Butterfly Effect (IRE): Butterfly Effect is a fair maiden who ran respectably despite missing the break in a recent handicap at Pontefract. With a back down in trip, Butterfly Effect should be considered as a contender.

King’s Code, although not in the top three based on the ratings, is a lightly-raced maiden who shaped as if needing the run after a 7-month break. With cheekpieces on for the first time, King’s Code could show improvement and should not be completely disregarded.

Based on the ratings and comments, Warren Hill (IRE) is the top-ranked horse and considered the strongest contender in the Mitchell & Co. Building Services Handicap. Outrace (IRE) and Butterfly Effect (IRE) have shown potential and should be closely considered as well.
