14:20 Windsor Handicap (Class 5) 6f - 5 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	3 1st (3) (1.75/1 -17%) Sharp Power	1.75 1.75/1(-17%)	(3) Sharp Power 1.75/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Very good second of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW, 11/8) 10 days ago, needing stronger gallop. One to keep on right side. Pulled too hard at Lingfield last time when hot favourite; still has potential back at 6f.
2	2 2nd (2) (7/1 -17%) Airshow	7 7/1(-17%)	(2) Airshow 7/1, Latest win at Goodwood in June. Fourth of 6 in handicap at Chepstow (6.1f, good to firm, evens) 16 days ago, left poorly placed. Can give a good account. Two wins this year and looked good at Goodwood last month; yard in form; contender.
3	1 3rd (1) (1.88/1 -25%) Mighty Gurkha	1.88 1.88/1(-25%)	(1) Mighty Gurkha 1.88/1, 1 win from 3 runs this year. 3/1, ended losing run in impressive style in 7-runner handicap at Leicester (6f, good to firm) 15 days ago. Shortlist material. Wide-margin winner at Leicester 15 days ago; major player despite an 8lb rise.
4	5 4th (5) (4.5/1 +44%) Catwalk Model	4.5 4.5/1(+44%)	(5) Catwalk Model 4.5/1, 8/11, career best when winning 7-runner maiden at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) 17 days ago, readily. Makes handicap debut. Will find this tougher. Improved performer this year, gaining first win at Yarmouth last month; usual hood off now.
5th	6 5th (6) (14/1 +0%) Rainbow Mirage	14 14/1(+0%)	(6) Rainbow Mirage 14/1, C&D winner. Fourth of 5 in handicap (5/1) at Nottingham (6.1f, firm) 25 days ago. Becoming well treated. Good record over C&D but yet to find her best form for new yard in 2023.

LTO Selection:

14:20 Windsor Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

MIGHTY GURKHA bolted up over this trip at Leicester on his return from a break last month and an 8lb raised mark may not be enough to hold him back here. Although he does have to shoulder top-weight, he is fancied to get the better of Sharp Power, who has been progressive in handicaps recently and can go close following a fair second at Lingfield over 7f most recently. Catwalk Model makes her handicap debut following a comfortable success at Yarmouth last month and completes the shortlist.

SHARP POWER shaped very well when runner-up at Lingfield 10 days ago and is taken to go one better with the drop back in trip likely to suit. Mighty Gurkha ended his losing run in impressive fashion at Leicester 2 weeks ago so is the obvious threat.

The return to 6f can help Sharp Power but MIGHTY GURKHA is taken to follow up last month's wide-margin Leicester win.

14:55 Windsor Stakes (Class 5) 6f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	6 1st (6) (2.25/1 +25%) Lady Dreamer	2.25 2.25/1(+25%)	(6) Lady Dreamer 2.25/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Evens, respectable second of 6 in minor event at Carlisle (5.8f, soft) 13 days ago. Visor on 1st time. Not taken lightly. Consistent but proving expensive to follow; new visor on; likely to be in the thick of it.
2	1 2nd (1) (0.91/1 -14%) Reminder	0.91 0.91/1(-14%)	(1) Reminder 0.91/1, Promising Dubawi filly who won 12-runner minor event at this C&D (good to firm) 27 days ago by 1¼ lengths from Lady Dreamer, keeping on well. Expected to be bang there once more despite conceding weight all round. Beat two of today's rivals over C&D last month; leading claims despite the 7lb penalty.
3	7 3rd (7) (7.5/1 +32%) Shoolaa	7.5 7.5/1(+32%)	(7) Shoolaa 7.5/1, Twice-raced maiden. 14/1, sixth of 9 in maiden at Newmarket (7f, good to soft) 73 days ago. Needs another step forward. Beaten favourite on 2yo debut; low-key return at Newmarket in April; needs more to feature.
4	5 4th (5) (5/1 +41%) Cloud Cover	5 5/1(+41%)	(5) Cloud Cover 5/1, 4/1, went backwards from debut when fifth of 9 in minor event at Thirsk (7f, soft) 12 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Debut effort promising; less good at Thirsk 12 days ago but better ground today may help.
5th	8 5th (8) (25/1 -108%) Tarbet	25 25/1(-108%)	(8) Tarbet 25/1, 22/1, encouraging sixth of 12 to Reminder in minor event (22/1) at this C&D (good to firm) on debut 27 days ago. Should have more to offer. Over 5l behind Reminder on her C&D debut last month; not sure 7lb enough to turn tables.
6th	2 6th (2) (40/1 -186%) Bonnie Blandford	40 40/1(-186%)	(2) Bonnie Blandford 40/1, 100/1, showing promise when falling inside last 1f at Lingfield (7f, AW) on debut 22 days ago. Can build on it if none the worse. Fell in closing stages when running okay on last month's debut; drop to 6f may not help.
7th	3 7th (3) (100/1 -25%) Ali Jewels	100 100/1(-25%)	(3) Ali Jewels 100/1, Twice-raced maiden. Fifth of 7 in maiden at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm, 22/1) 17 days ago. Very hard to make a case for. Modest form in two fillies' maidens this summer; handicaps more suitable after this.
8th	4 8th (4) (100/1 -100%) Brazen Insanity	100 100/1(-100%)	(4) Brazen Insanity 100/1, 200/1, last of 16 in maiden at Newbury (6.5f, heavy) on debut 8 months ago. First run for yard after leaving Simon Hodgson. Work to do. Tailed off when 200-1 for her debut last October; new yard but hard to fancy.

LTO Selection:

14:55 Windsor Stakes (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

REMINDER is related to some smart types, including the 7f Group 3 winner Recorder, and the daughter of Dubawi built on her racecourse debut to score over C&D on her most recent outing. Andrew Balding's inmate left the impression that there would be more to come and she gets the vote from the reopposing Lady Dreamer, who sports a first-time visor following a second at Carlisle last time out. Cloud Cover looks the pick of the remainder.

REMINDER took a big step forward when going in over C&D and can defy her penalty with more progress on the cards. Old rival Lady Dreamer is feared most, but could have to settle for second again, with Tarbet appealing as the pick of the rest.

Cloud Cover still has more to come but so does REMINDER and Andrew Balding's filly can defy her penalty and gain a second win.

15:30 Windsor Stakes (Class 4) 5f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	3 1st (3) (6/1 -50%) Ardad's Great	6 6/1(-50%)	(3) Ardad's Great 6/1, Fairly useful form in Ireland last year. Ran to a fair level when second in 6f course novice on her British debut in May but she's been well below par twice since. Bounce back is needed. Disappointing on fast ground the last twice; something to prove and now reverts to 5f.
2	5 2nd (5) (4/1 -14%) Flying Kiss	4 4/1(-14%)	(5) Flying Kiss 4/1, 9/2, third of 6 in maiden at Chelmsford (6f) on debut in January, tiring late on. The drop back to 5f shouldn't be an issue and she's a likely improver for her in-form stable. Promise amidst inexperience on her Chelmsford debut in Jan (6f); should do better in time.
3	1 3rd (1) (40/1 +39%) Moonlight Dreamer	40 40/1(+39%)	(1) Moonlight Dreamer 40/1, 50/1, well held on 6f course debut 5 weeks ago. Tongue tie added now. Can only be watched after that. Remote 7th on his debut here in May (6f); tongue tied now; not easily recommended.
4	2 4th (2) (2.75/1 -38%) Never This Way	2.75 2.75/1(-38%)	(2) Never This Way 2.75/1, Fair form when third in sprint novices at Kempton (6f) and Bath (5f). Represents a leading yard and ought to be in the shake-up again. Promise in both starts and remains capable of better; more appealing than many.
5th	4 5th (4) (20/1 +60%) Darkened Edge	20 20/1(+60%)	(4) Darkened Edge 20/1, Cable Bay filly. Closely related to 6f winner On Edge and half-sister to 5f-6f winner Edged Out and winner up to 7.5f Surewecan. Has had wind surgery ahead of debut. Also fitted with a hood. Betting should guide. Bred to have a future but she's had a wind op prior to her debut and also wears a hood.
6th	7 6th (7) (1.25/1 +38%) Tephi	1.25 1.25/1(+38%)	(7) Tephi 1.25/1, Fair form when runner-up 5 times from 9 starts at 2. Likely to be on the premises on her return to action but her record suggests she could be vulnerable to an improver. Runner-up in five of her nine 2yo runs; conditions fine but goes without headgear today.
7th	6 7th (6) (25/1 +38%) Stocks Park	25 25/1(+38%)	(6) Stocks Park 25/1, Showed a bit when fourth on AW debut last autumn but below that level in her 2 outings since. Still to build on her debut promise and looks up against it in this field.

LTO Selection:

15:30 Windsor Stakes (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

NEVER THIS WAY improved when third over this trip at Bath last month and the son of No Nay Never can build on that here. His dam was Listed-placed during her career and William Haggas' three-year-old showed scope for further improvement during the aforementioned outing. Flying Kiss finished a fair third at Chelmsford on her racecourse debut in January and merits consideration on her turf bow, while Ardad's Great heads the remainder.

Archie Watson has his team in good form so FLYING KISS gets the nod to build on an encouraging first effort at Chelmsford in January. Tephi had plenty of chances last year but her form puts her right there on her return to action. Never This Way is another likely to be on the premises.

There has been sufficient promise in NEVER THIS WAY's two runs to think he could win this uncompetitive novice event.

16:10 Windsor Handicap (Class 4) 11f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (2.25/1 -50%) Mr Freedom	2.25 2.25/1(-50%)	(5) Mr Freedom 2.25/1, Career best when winning 8-runner handicap (6/5) at this C&D (good to soft) 20 days ago, pushed out. Big shout again. 3-3 on Flat this year, including clearcut win when 6-5 favourite over C&D three weeks ago.
2	6 2nd (6) (4.5/1 +10%) Dark Island	4.5 4.5/1(+10%)	(6) Dark Island 4.5/1, Creditable third of 12 in handicap at Newbury (10f, firm, 9/2) 17 days ago. Respected. Back to his best when a very close, never-nearer third of 12 at Newbury (1m2f) last time.
3	2 3rd (2) (2.5/1 +25%) In The Breeze	2.5 2.5/1(+25%)	(2) In The Breeze 2.5/1, Improved on recent efforts to win 7-runner handicap at Haydock (11.8f, good to firm, 9/2) 36 days ago, overcoming pace bias. Can go well again. Impressed with the way he came from last to first at Haydock (1m4f) five weeks ago.
4	3 4th (3) (9/1 +50%) True Courage	9 9/1(+50%)	(3) True Courage 9/1, Ninth of 10 in handicap (18/1) at Kempton (11f), doing too much too soon. Off 8 months. Will probably need this reappearance. 2nd in this race last year but his last two campaigns suggest that this run will be needed.
5th	1 5th (1) (16/1 -14%) Noble Anthem	16 16/1(-14%)	(1) Noble Anthem 16/1, 33/1, thirteenth of 15 in handicap at York (11.8f, good to firm) 15 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Others make more appeal. No impact on last six starts (two over hurdles); now tries blinkers.
6th	7 6th (7) (7/1 -40%) My Chiquita	7 7/1(-40%)	(7) My Chiquita 7/1, 2 wins from 4 runs this year. Career best when winning 3-runner handicap (7/4) at Leicester (11.8f, good to firm) 15 days ago, well on top finish. Solid claims in the hat-trick bid. Hat-trick bid; raised another 5lb and into a much better race but she is firmly on the up.
7th	4 7th (4) (12/1 +14%) Rogue Rocket	12 12/1(+14%)	(4) Rogue Rocket 12/1, 15/2 and visored for 1st time, second of 3 in handicap at Salisbury (9.9f, good to firm) 14 days ago, no match for winner. On a handy mark if he can build on that. Creditable second in three-runner race at Salisbury (1m2f) two weeks ago with first visor.

LTO Selection:

16:10 Windsor Handicap (Class 4) 11f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

MR FREEDOM continued his fine run of form when winning over C&D last month with something in hand and another 6lb rise may not be enough to prevent Sheena West's gelding from scoring again. In The Breeze gained his first success of the season when getting his head in front in the dying strides at Haydock in May and he could emerge as the chief threat off only 3lb more. The progressive My Chiquita seeks a hat-trick and also enters calculations.

This is a strong race for the grade but MR FREEDOM has looked well ahead of the handicapper since returning to the Flat and he's fancied to go in again at the likely expense of the hat-trick seeking My Chiquita. In The Breeze, who overcame a pace bias to defy a reduced mark at Haydock last time, is another to consider.

The three last-time-out winners left a notably favourable impression. MR FREEDOM (nap) is preferred to My Chiquita.

16:45 Windsor Handicap (Class 5) 10f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (3.33/1 +17%) Carp Kid	3.33 3.33/1(+17%)	(5) Carp Kid 3.33/1, C&D winner. 10/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at this course (11.4f, good to soft) 20 days ago, weakening 2f out. Dropped to a handy mark and must enter calculations with a top claimer on board. Conditions to suit, on a good mark and Billy Loughnane booked; yet to get going this year.
2	4 2nd (4) (3/1 -71%) Naasma	3 3/1(-71%)	(4) Naasma 3/1, Showed improved form to get off the mark in clearcut fashion in 11-runner handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 3/1) 10 days ago, staying on to lead last ½f. Fancied to be in the mix again nudged up 4 lb. Quite a stylish win on AW last time and she looks on the up; this a better race though.
3	2 3rd (2) (6/1 +0%) Oriental Art	6 6/1(+0%)	(2) Oriental Art 6/1, Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. 12/1, not disgraced when sixth of 9 in handicap at Kempton (16f), finding test too much. Significantly back down in trip after 5 months off and may well need this outing. Consistent but he's an exposed 17-race maiden who usually races over further.
4	3 4th (3) (4.5/1 +72%) Snag It	4.5 4.5/1(+72%)	(3) Snag It 4.5/1, 9/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, fared no better when seventh of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f), slowly away. First run for yard after leaving Kevin Frost after 4 months off and interesting to see what the market makes of him. On a good mark on 2022 best; quiet for another yard earlier in the year; risky.
5th	6 5th (6) (11/1 -144%) Mr Zee	11 11/1(-144%)	(6) Mr Zee 11/1, Dual C&D winner this year, latest in May. 6/1, struggled in a better race when seventh of 8 in handicap at this course (11.4f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Needs to get back on track. Two C&D wins in the spring on soft ground; less good over 1m3f latest; rain would help.
6th	1 6th (1) (3.5/1 +22%) English Spirit	3.5 3.5/1(+22%)	(1) English Spirit 3.5/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in March. Wasted no time getting back on track when third of 9 in handicap at Goodwood (9f, good to firm, 11/1) 23 days ago. Yet to get his head in front on turf, however. Prominent racer who has generally run well this year; should make another bold bid.

LTO Selection:

16:45 Windsor Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Naasma gained a break-through success on the all-weather at Lingfield recently and a 3lb rise shouldn't prevent another bold bid. However, a chance can be taken on CARP KID, whose mark continues to slide. John Flint's eight-year-old is now 4lb below his C&D success last July, with top apprentice Billy Loughnane an eye-catching booking. English Spirit attempts 1m2f for the first time and could also have a say if seeing the distance out.

Naasma will no doubt be popular after her breakthrough success at Lingfield recently, but she may have to play second fiddle to CARP KID, who has dropped to a handy mark and with Billy Loughnane on board for the first time, John Flint's 8-y-o can notch a third course success. English Spirit and recent dual C&D winner Mr Zee can battle out third spot.

Carp Kid should fare better today but ENGLISH SPIRIT may be ready to gain a first turf success.

1	7 1st (7) (7/1 +36%) Honeymooner	7 7/1(+36%)	(7) Honeymooner 7/1, In first-time blinkers, step back in right direction when fourth of 11 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good to firm, 9/1) 17 days ago, doing too much too soon. Task is now to build on her latest effort. Second in two maidens last summer (7f/1m) but has not reproduced the form.
2	2 2nd (2) (0.83/1 +9%) Kimnkate	0.83 0.83/1(+9%)	(2) Kimnkate 0.83/1, With Connor Planas on board, continued her progress when winning 7-runner handicap at Chepstow (7.1f, good to firm, 5/4) 6 days ago with plenty in hand. Penalty might not be enough to prevent the hat-trick. Has come good in blinkers on last two starts and ran away with latest; standout claims.
3	6 3rd (6) (11/1 +31%) Gwendolina	11 11/1(+31%)	(6) Gwendolina 11/1, Made successful handicap debut at Lingfield in January. However, below form switched to turf last 2 starts, third of 5 in handicap (10/1) at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Tailed off three starts back and below form since in her only two forays on turf.
4	4 4th (4) (7.5/1 +73%) Enola Grey	7.5 7.5/1(+73%)	(4) Enola Grey 7.5/1, Operating below last season's best so far this year, ninth of 13 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 14/1) 34 days ago. Cheekpieces now reached for. Won last September; little to shout about since and now wears headgear first time.
5th	1 5th (1) (6.5/1 -63%) Lady Marie	6.5 6.5/1(-63%)	(1) Lady Marie 6.5/1, Showed improved form when opening account in 7-runner handicap at Lingfield (1m, AW, 11/2) 90 days ago, always holding on. May do better still as she now makes her turf debut. Off the mark in tidy style in handicap at Lingfield (1m) three months ago when last seen.
6th	5 6th (5) (7.5/1 +6%) Congruent	7.5 7.5/1(+6%)	(5) Congruent 7.5/1, Having dropped further in the weights, ran her best race when third of 10 in handicap at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm, 17/2) 24 days ago. Can be thereabouts once again off the same mark. Two bits of fair form from six starts, including when third in 1m handicap on latest.

LTO Selection:

17:20 Windsor Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

KIMNKATE has proved a revelation since being fitted with blinkers at Lingfield last month and, off only 4lb higher than when a seven-length winner at Chepstow recently, Richard Hughes' filly is hard to oppose. Fellow last-time-out winner Lady Marie makes her turf debut after a 90-day break and cannot be discounted, nevertheless, Congruent may emerge as a bigger threat having finished third at Yarmouth in June.

KIMNKATE has thrived since the application of blinkers, making it back-to-back wins with a wide-margin success at Chepstow 6 days ago, and she can score again in her current form. Congruent ran her best race when third at Yarmouth last time and could be the biggest threat to the selection, ahead of Lady Marie.

This is all about KIMNKATE judged on the way she stormed clear on Monday. The step back up in trip should not be any problem.

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
