Fast Horses To Follow

Here are the TBF standout performances, maidens wins and unlucky runners of the week that's just been.

*TBF Ratings are out of 100, a mark Winx achieved three times in her career


TOP GUN

“The standout performance of the weekend”


ASCOT R9 GOLD RUSH 1400M

THE ASTROLOGIST 90


“The Astrologist just on top with his 90 rating courtesy of clocking 1:22.56 for 1400m at Ascot, which is three-quarters of a second inside the standard”


RANDWICK R9 BM88 1600M

NUGGET 90


“Nugget would’ve just won The Ingham on our stuff had he gained a start with Kirwan’s Lane posting an 89. Despite his overall time being slower, Nugget has produced a superior last 600m, made his run on inferior ground and carried 3.5kg more than Kirwan’s Lane”


SANDOWN R7 BM84 1800M

RIGHT YOU ARE 90


“Right You Are returned to the winners’ circle for the first time in 125 weeks and this was his second best rating of his career with only his 2nd to Persan back in June 2020 eclipsing his 90 mark here”


WHIPPER SNAPPER

“Maiden of the week”


THURSDAY

WARRNAMBOOL R2 MAIDEN 1000M

RICH PARIS


“Mustered speed early to lead and kept going clocking 58.08, which is bang on average but the late splits were what caught the eye. Between the 400m – 200m he’s run 11.04 the best for the day and then run the second best last 200m of the meeting”


TUESDAY

BATHURST R3 MAIDEN 1100M

SHEZANALISTER


“Still does a bit wrong but this was the first time she struck a dry track and has run a clear career peak plus her last 200m in 11.72 was half a second faster than any other winner on the day”


BURIED TREASURE

“Worth looking for next start”


SATURDAY

SANDOWN R8 BM84 1400M

KETTLE HILL

“Held up at two crucial stages in the straight before charging to the line in 10.96s L200m, the best late split for the day. Was off the map, should’ve won and is a horse to follow”
