My Mate Mike

16
16/1(-78%)
(8) My Mate Mike 16/1, Fair maiden who bounced back to form on his turf debut when third of 11 in handicap (16/1) at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) 18 days ago. Not taken lightly eased 1 lb.
Two promising efforts from his last three starts; unexposed as a sprinter.

Raven's Applause

6
6/1(+33%)
(3) Raven's Applause 6/1, Had looked to be on the up but he came in only a fair fifth on his handicap debut at Newmarket (7f, good) 17 days ago. Cheekpieces are reached for now.
Didn't improve for handicapping latest (7f) but drops back to 6f and has cheekpieces added.

2nd (4) Skallywag Bay (6.5/1 +54%)
Skallywag Bay

6.5
6.5/1(+54%)
(4) Skallywag Bay 6.5/1, Put her experience to good use when winning 6f Kempton novice in September but she has yet to fire in two 6f handicaps this term. Handily weighted if getting back on track.
6f AW winner last season; well held in two 6f handicaps last month; still early days.

3rd (1) In The Giving (6/1 -50%)
In The Giving

6
6/1(-50%)
(1) In The Giving 6/1, Fair filly who saw her run of good form come to an end when offs-on last of 6 in claimer at Leicester (6f, heavy) 52 days ago. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort.
Stuck in the mud latest but it was a lowly claimer; previous h'cap runs give her a shout.

4th (9) Liosa (10/1 +55%)
Liosa

10
10/1(+55%)
(9) Liosa 10/1, Only modest form shown in three runs for Craig Lidster last autumn, fourth of 10 in 5f minor event (16/1) at Wolverhampton final one. Makes his stable/handicap debut with something to find at these weights.
Some promise in 3 runs for C Lidster; sold 10,000gns in February and gelded; unexposed.

5th (5) Berkshire Cruz (12/1 +0%)
Berkshire Cruz

12
12/1(+0%)
(5) Berkshire Cruz 12/1, Tried in headgear and has twice failed to progress from his debut Kempton third in October. Goes into handicaps now after a wind op with something to prove.
Didn't build on debut promise in two subsequent runs; had wind op in March; unexposed.

6th (2) Big R (2/1 +20%)
Big R

2
2/1(+20%)
(2) Big R 2/1, Fair maiden who comes here on the back of a good second of 11 in handicap at Haydock (6f, good to firm) 9 days ago, nearest finish. Enters calculations nudged up just 1 lb.
0-5 but he's been threatening in handicaps and he's well drawn; one to take seriously.

7th (6) Mahboobah (50/1 -52%)
Mahboobah

50
50/1(-52%)
(6) Mahboobah 50/1, Shaped well when debut second for Kevin Philippart De Foy at Yarmouth last summer but she has gone the wrong way since, cheekpieces tried when seventh in handicap at Haydock (8f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Blinkers are given a go this time.
Yet to build on debut promise but drops back to 6f and has blinkers added; may revive.
7
8th (7) Sabah Al Ward (6/1 -140%)
Sabah Al Ward

6
6/1(-140%)
(7) Sabah Al Ward 6/1, Well-related Showcasing filly who showed promise on her first two runs for Richard Hughes only to come in last in 6f Kempton novice 7 months ago. Makes yard/handicap debut on the back of breathing surgery and she's not without interest if it sparks a resurgence.
2 fair runs for R Hughes in 2022; wind op prior to this stable/h'cap debut; check betting.
LTO Selection:

17:45 Windsor Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Big R finished second by a length and a half last time at Haydock, and he was only raised 1lb for that effort. However, a chance can be taken on SABAH AL WARD, who hasn't shown a great deal in her three runs so far but makes her first start for the George Boughey yard and, with William Buick booked on her handicap bow, she could take a big step forward. In The Giving is another to consider.

A number of these arrive with question marks against them so at the likely odds it is worth siding with SABAH AL WARD to take a sizeable step forward starting out for George Boughey on the back of breathing surgery. Recent Haydock second Big R holds obvious claims off just a 1 lb higher mark and is next on the list with My Mate Mike and Skallywag Bay both weighted to have a say too.

Sabah Al Ward is an interesting handicap debutante for a new yard but BIG R has been threatening and this could be his day.

The Line

1.25
1.25/1(+38%)
(11) The Line 1.25/1, Caravaggio colt. Half-brother to 2-y-o 6f winner Mild Illusion. Displayed plenty of ability amidst inexperience when third in 5-runner Ascot conditions' event (5f) on debut 33 days ago and he's very much the type to build on that. Big player fitted with a hood.
Promising third, behind a pair of previous winners, in conditions stakes at Ascot (5f)..

Brave Empire

3.5
3.5/1(+22%)
(4) Brave Empire 3.5/1, 450,000 gns yearling, Dark Angel colt who showed ability and should learn from his initial experience when sixth of 7 at York (5f, firm, 8/1) 19 days ago. Fancied to progress stepped up to 6f.
Made late headway at York to finish sixth in a field of seven and should come on for that..

7
7/1(+0%)
(2) Battle Charge 7/1, Wootton Bassett colt who looked in need of experience but shaped with encouragement when sixth of 10 in maiden at Newbury (6f, good) on debut 17 days ago. Should improve.
Only 4-1 for his debut at Newbury (6f, good) but never picked up; may yet do better..

Always behind when last to finish at Newbury (6f, good) and best watched for now..

£60,000 2yo; could be vulnerable to sharper-bred opposition..
LTO Selection:

18:15 Windsor Stakes (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

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

The Line showed plenty of promise on debut at Ascot over 5f, and he should take a step forward from that display sporting a first-time hood. However, CHIEDOZIE just shades the vote as his dam is a close relative to multiple Group 1 winner Battash and, with that in mind, he could be well up to the task on debut. Any market support for Matnookh should not be ignored.

The market will prove informative with the majority of these unraced, but THE LINE showed plenty of ability amidst greenness when third in a Royal Ascot trial last month, so he's fancied to put that experience to good use and score second time up fitted with a hood. Chiedozie, Matnookh and Sonmarg all have plenty to recommend them on paper, but the main threat may emerge from the once-raced Brave Empire.

A chance is taken on CHIEDOZIE, who is from the family of his yard's superstar sprinter Battaash.

9
1st (9) Reminder (4/1 +60%)
Reminder

4
4/1(+60%)
(9) Reminder 4/1, Well-bred filly but wasn't seen to best effect on her debut, hampered and shuffled back after 1f when seventh of 8 in maiden at Wolverhampton (6.1f) last month. Can improve from that effort.
Mid-race interference was no help on AW debut and she can no doubt do better..
7
2nd (7) Lady Dreamer (1.88/1 +12%)
Lady Dreamer

1.88
1.88/1(+12%)
(7) Lady Dreamer 1.88/1, Ran to a fair level when runner-up both starts at 2 yrs. Lesser effort after 8 months off (had a wind op) when fourth in maiden at Kempton (7f) 33 days ago, but she's well worth another chance to build on her previous promise with tongue strap on first time.
Plenty of promise last season but her reappearance at Kempton was underwhelming..
11
3rd (11) Swiss Star (7.5/1 -67%)
Swiss Star

7.5
7.5/1(-67%)
(11) Swiss Star 7.5/1, Dark Angel filly. Sister to smart winner up to 6f Yafta and half-sister to 5f/6f winner Aperitif and 5f winner Summit Fever. Makes plenty of appeal on paper so she merits consideration on debut.
Plenty of positives on paper and, representing a top yard, the market can guide..

Jungle Charm

7/1(+30%)
(5) Jungle Charm 7/1, Jungle Cat filly. Half-sister to useful 6f winner Mighty Gurkha and winner up to 1m Chief's Will. Dam unraced half-sister to very smart 6f/7f winner Rewarding Hero. Yard capable of readying a newcomer.
Third foal; half-sister to winners Mighty Gurkha (6f Group 3; RPR 105)..

Bugle Beads

Papabella

25
25/1(-79%)
(8) Papabella 25/1, Fared best of the newcomers when third of 5 at Salisbury (5f) in April last year, but still green when fourth of 5 in minor event at the same C&D the following month. Up in trip as she returns from 12 months off.
Beaten 3l and 4.5l in 5f fast-ground, small-field novices at Salisbury; more needed..

Speed Dial Baileys

(10) Speed Dial Baileys 40/1, After 8 months off, well backed (4/1) but lost all chance at the start when seventh of 9 in minor event at Pontefract (5f, good) 10 days ago. Debut form is proving strong, though, so she remains open to improvement back up in trip with hood on first time.
Only 4-1 when losing all chance with a slow start at Pontefract..
1
9th (1) Al Haan (12/1 +14%)
Al Haan

12
12/1(+14%)
(1) Al Haan 12/1, Frankel filly but made an unpromising start to her career when ninth of 11 in maiden at Newmarket (7f, good, 18/1) 18 days ago. Will need to leave her first run well behind.
Finished down the field at Newmarket and stable second string according to jockey bookings.

Flame Queen

First foal out of a 5f-1m1f winner (including Group 2; RPR 111)..

(2) Autumn Lights 250/1, Had been sold cheaply and offered little at big odds (150/1) when last of 12 in minor event at Kempton (7f) on debut 12 days ago. Easy enough to look elsewhere.
Cost only 800gns as a yearling and finished last at Kempton (7f) when one of the outsiders.
6
12th (6) Lady Chapel (125/1 -400%)
Lady Chapel

125/1(-400%)
(6) Lady Chapel 125/1, Bred for longer trips and ran to just a similar level as on debut when seventh of 11 in minor event at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) 16 days ago. Will be of more appeal in handicaps.
Down the field in both her races and will earn a mark after this..
LTO Selection:

18:45 Windsor Stakes (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

BUGLE BEADS makes her first start for powerful connections and she is related to a few decent winners, including Fillies' Mile heroine Crystal Music. The William Haggas yard is in fine form and it would be no surprise if this filly were to strike on debut. Lady Dreamer sets the standard with a rating of 82 and, if she can run to that level, she will likely be on the premises. Swiss Star is another interesting newcomer to watch out for.

LADY DREAMER showed promise when runner-up on both of her starts last year, so she is taken to step forward from her reappearance run and resume her progress with a tongue strap now applied. She can get off the mark this time around, with newcomers Bugle Beads and Swiss Star the pair who are feared most.

It might pay to take a chance on SWISS STAR who looks the part on paper for a stable in excellent form right now.

(9) Tough Enough 6.5/1, Showcasing colt who was placed on turf on first 2 starts before making it third time lucky in 6f Wolverhampton novice last November. Starts out in handicap company in a competitive race but he is unexposed.
Should progress further and market perhaps helpful after his absence..

Rocking Ends

25
25/1(-25%)
(5) Rocking Ends 25/1, Ended 2022 with 6f win at Southwell in December. Started 2023 with 3 creditable efforts on AW and heavy ground provides an excuse for last month's poor run at Goodwood.
Career-best second at Kempton before getting stuck in the mud at Goodwood..

Eminency

2.25
2.25/1(+18%)
(6) Eminency 2.25/1, Sprinter going the right way, unlucky fourth on Kempton reappearance then good third in strong Newmarket handicap (6f, good). Likely capable of better again and leading claims.
Improving sprinter who ran well at Newmarket; flatter track favourable; player..

Buccabay

(8) Buccabay 16/1, Much improved from debut when showing a good turn of foot to settle matters in a 6f Ascot maiden last July. Shaped encouragingly after 9 months off when third at Kempton (7f) in April and might have been unsuited by very testing ground when well-held sixth on Newmarket handicap debut last month.
Career was going in the right direction before a soft-ground failure at Newmarket..

Maiden winner who lost all chance through interference on handicap debut at York..

Has only won on Polytrack (5f/6f) and is yet to fully convince on the grass..

Had a good first season until getting stuck in the mud the final time; unexposed..

Progressive 2yo and this season's two no-shows are readily forgiven; respected..
7
9th (7) Aunt Violet (18/1 +18%)
Aunt Violet

18
18/1(+18%)
(7) Aunt Violet 18/1, Fairly useful form, getting off the mark in 6f Yarmouth novice (soft) in October. Not up to listed company on final start. More realistic chance now handicapping on return but it's hard to argue her opening mark looks lenient.
6f novice winner; low mileage and could well raise her game further at three..

Ran as though the race was needed at Goodwood and now reverts back to sprinting..

Wiltshire

10
10/1(-33%)
(1) Wiltshire 10/1, Left debut form well behind when taking a 12-runner Wolverhampton maiden in November. Not up to the Greenham on reappearance but posted a useful effort when 2 lengths fifth of 8 in 7f Newmarket listed race since. Drops back in trip for handicap debut.
Well held in the Greenham and then only fifth of eight in a 7f good-ground Listed race..
LTO Selection:

19:15 Windsor Handicap (Class 3) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

This represents a considerable drop in grade for Wiltshire, who finished a fair fifth behind Shouldvebeenaring in Listed company over 7f last month. However, EMINENCY gets the vote. The son of Havana Grey kept on for third in a deeper race at Newmarket most recently and a 1lb raised mark may not be enough to stop Clive Cox's inmate going in. Aunt Violet and Tough Enough add further spice to the race.

A useful 3-y-o sprint. EMINENCY arrives on the back of a good placed effort in a similarly competitive race at Newmarket and gets the vote. Spartan Arrow didn't get the chance to show what he could do on his York handicap debut and is second choice ahead of Bresson, who shaped quite well on his Goodwood reappearance.

While stall 10 isn't perfect, EMINENCY (nap) is capable of stepping up plenty on his excellent third at Newmarket.

Latest 6th at Newbury was still a fair effort; sharper track/faster ground a plus; chance.

(8) Night Arc 28/1, Got off the mark in 1m2f handicap at Leicester last May. Only start since when down the field at Sandown 11 days ago but didn't have a hard race and is likely to strip fitter for it.
Well held at Sandown 11 days ago (after a year off); others stronger in this field.

(4) Silver Gunn 2.75/1, C&D winner. 5/1, creditable third of 7 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 7 days ago. Should give another good account.
Conditions to suit and he ran well on last week's reappearance; one to take seriously.

(5) Premiere Ligne 16/1, Ran to a fairly useful level when winning a pair of handicaps in France in 2022. Slightly disappointing start for new yard at Newbury recently but it's too soon to write him off.
Two wins in France; recent stable debut wasn't without hope; should be sharper today.

33/1(-313%)
(9) Hotspur Harry 33/1, Placed on first two starts this season and suffered interference when sixth at Yarmouth last time. Likely to give his running.
Two good AW runs this spring and got no run at Yarmouth latest; others still appeal more.
LTO Selection:

19:45 Windsor Handicap (Class 4) 10f Race Class Flow

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

Despite finishing a disappointing sixth at Newbury on her most recent run, WISPER can relish the return to a quicker surface and the daughter of Belardo is taken to bounce back. A game winner at Brighton on her penultimate outing, she must be respected even though she is now 5lb above that mark. Silver Gunn finished a fair third over C&D last month and can give the selection plenty to think about, while Farasi Lane completes the shortlist.

WISPER is a consistent type with plenty of talent and, if the pace is sound, she can add another C&D success to her tally. Tuxedo Junction and Farasi Lane look the main dangers.

Silver Gunn ran well on last week's return but YOUTHFUL KING may be sharper for his reappearance and could enjoy the run of things.

(13) Afternoon Tea 50/1, Looks pretty limited judged on the evidence available and recent display at Kempton hardly augurs well. Hopes pinned on the first-time blinkers triggering a jolt of improvement.

0-21 and ran moderately at Leicester last week behind Blazer Two..

(4) Gearing's Point 2.25/1, Back from 12 months off when making winning yard debut in 8-runner handicap at Lingfield (1½m, AW). Proved that to be no fluke when a close third off this 6 lb higher mark here (1¼m, good to firm) a fortnight ago and she's a major player.
In good form since returning from a year off and this longer trip is a plus..

11/1(-10%)
(1) Mrembo 11/1, Just the one win from 14 starts, namely a 1¼m Bath handicap last spring. However, she subsequently made the frame off higher marks than this on several occasions in 2022 and will be a threat in first-time cheekpieces if able to bounce back from a low-key effort back at Bath 19 days ago.
Remains fairly high in the weights and she's unraced beyond 1m2f..

(8) Molliana 12/1, Good strike rate on the Flat and over hurdles, albeit has done most of her winning in Jersey. Decent third of 13 back in this sphere at Bath (11.6f, good) in April but she was well held over timber next time and others make more appeal here.
Prolific in Jersey under both codes; has still to win on the Flat in Britain..

(6) Blazer Two 3.5/1, Off the mark in 11.8f Leicester handicap last summer and resumed winning ways back from a 6-month break over the same C&D under Callum Hutchinson last week. Escapes a penalty for that and could prove hard to peg back with conditions again in his favour.
Escapes a penalty for last week's narrow Leicester win so his claims are obvious..

(12) Global Style 16/1, Has failed to get his head in front on turf following 22 attempts but he did go close off 1 lb higher at Brighton last June. Latest effort over 1¼m suggested that the extra yardage here would be welcomed and he's not without each-way hope.
Best efforts this year have come in classified races and has struggled in handicaps..

1m AW winner for previous stable; nowhere near that form in four runs for current yard..

0-25 and flattered to finish quite so close over this trip at Lingfield last Thursday..

Has only won at Bath or Brighton on turf and finished unplaced in all three visits here..

(11) Vertical 8/1, Best effort yet when fourth of 13 back up in trip at Brighton (1¼m, good) last time. 1 lb lower now and while it remains to be seen whether the additional increase in distance here will be in her favour, she could have a say if able to build on that effort.
Beaten under 3l at Brighton last time despite getting no cover..

Pure Bubbles

4.5

(2) Pure Bubbles 4.5/1, Winless following 17 starts overall (Flat and jumps) and didn't show much in 5 starts in this sphere last year. That said, he's been given a chance by the handicapper and booking of William Buick catches the eye, so he needs a second look in the betting.
Now 0-17 but has form in better races than this and jockey booking heightens interest..

Divination

(3) Divination 125/1, Lightly-raced maiden who failed to beat a rival home on debut here last June and hasn't fared much better on the AW since. Looks set for another struggle, unless the addition of cheekpieces helps to spark improvement.
Only had the five races but has yet to get remotely competitive, inc two handicaps..
LTO Selection:

20:15 Windsor Handicap (Class 6) 11f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Molliana has been consistent under both codes and is reliable enough to warrant shortlist inclusion. Similar comments apply to Blazer Two, who looked refreshed up by a break when he made all to win an apprentice race at Leicester last week. He escapes a penalty and is respected off the same mark. However, recent Lingfield winner GEARING'S POINT, who ran a blinder when third over 1m2f here a fortnight ago, is much more appealing.

BLAZER TWO appeared to relish the switch to front-running tactics when striking at Leicester last week and, unpenalised for that, he will take plenty of stopping. Clear second choice is Gearing's Point, who backed up her reappearance success on the all-weather when going down all guns blazing here recently. Pure Bubbles has a bit to prove but it will be interesting to see if support arrives for this 5-y-o, given that he resumes on a much-reduced mark and has the assistance of William Buick.

Not a strong race and it could pay to risk PURE BUBBLES, who has strong form credentials if you go back far enough.

(9) Havana Goldrush 8.5/1, Bath winner (8f) in April who returned to form when creditable third of 8 in handicap over same C&D (firm) 10 days ago. Ought to give another good account.
Not in the worse of form but has his foibles and softer ground on turf perhaps preferred..

On a dangerous mark but hasn't made the brightest of starts to this season..

Chance on old form for previous yard; opposable on debut effort for this one..

On a good mark and ran well behind a dominant winner at Newbury..
LTO Selection:

20:45 Windsor Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

GREG THE GREAT represents a yard riding the crest of a wave and this gelding can do his bit to boost the coffers, if he builds on what was a promising effort in an apprentice race over 1m at Newbury 17 days ago. The handicapper has left him unchanged and another big run can be expected. Raqraaq is noteworthy switched to turf and joins Havana Goldrush and Grand Libya on the shortlist.

Preference is for GREG THE GREAT, who looks nicely treated and got back to his best at Newbury last month. Raqraaq and Grand LIbya head the list of dangers in a tricky-looking finale.

He's a veteran who has seen better days, but CLIFFS OF CAPRI is handicapped to win again and ran really well the last time.

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.
