UK Horse Racing Tips: Windsor

CELSIUS had a hood and a tongue tie fitted for his handicap debut and he duly left his previous form a long way behind, springing a 25-1 surprise. Gelding him and dropping him to the minimum distance appears to have been the making of him and he can defy an 8lb rise. Ever Rock also arrives on the back of a victory but had to work far harder for it at Bath and Valentino Sunrise, who wasn't all that far behind Celsius at Haydock, could be the bigger danger.
Prediction : 1st Celsius 2nd Valentino Sunrise 3rd Ever Rock

There is plenty of speed in KNIGHT SHIELD's pedigree and it is no surprise that he changed hands for 140,000 pounds as a yearling. With no form to go on, he gets a tentative nod ahead of Irish Acclaim, who should also be a quick, early type and made 105,000 euros. Tiritomba fetched a six-figure sum as a foal, and again as a yearling, but her price had almost halved again by the time she got to this year's Craven Breeze-Ups.
Prediction : 1st Knight Shield 2nd Irish Acclaim 3rd Tiritomba

REVOLUTIONISE was a warm order for his handicap debut and having cut out his own running, he was only collared in the final half-furlong at Lingfield. With that in mind, the drop from 6f should be to his advantage and even off a 3lb higher mark, he remains nicely treated. Pink Flamingo's hat-trick bid may have fallen short at Brighton but she lost nothing in defeat and must not be written off just yet, nor should Spirit Of May following his Goodwood defeat. Devils Roc has done really well since joining Jonny Portman and could give Revolutionise most concern.
Prediction : 1st Revolutionise 2nd Devils Roc 3rd Pink Flamingo

LOUIE DE PALMA has had more than his fair share of issues but proved why connections have persevered with him when winning for the first time in nearly five years at Ascot, supplementing that with a narrow defeat at Newmarket. He is open to even more improvement and can force last-start 5f runner-up Naughty Rascal to settle for another supporting role. The Epsom Dash was all too much for Daschas and this will suit him better, while Sunsprite has also kept smart company and will relish the drop from 7f.
Prediction : 1st Louie de Palma 2nd Naughty Rascal 3rd Daschas

Earl Of Harrow backed up his breakthrough success here by following up at Haydock. A further 3lb rise doesn't exactly appear harsh but he bumps into a bang in-form rival in ASIAN ANGEL, who demolished the opposition at Ayr on Friday night and Mark Johnston is wise to get him out again under his penalty before the assessor takes revenge. The handicap newcomers Fox Vardy and Desert Mission must be given respect as well.
Prediction : 1st Asian Angel 2nd Earl Of Harrow 3rd Fox Vardy

Albert Finney is holding his form really well but found Korcho half a length too strong here on his penultimate start, although he is marginally better off at the weights and his rival has been beaten twice since. Baryshnikov is expected to perform better than he did at Goodwood but a chance is taken on the fitness of ALNADIR, who has been gelded since disposing of King Edward VII third Eagles By Day in a Nottingham maiden back in the autumn.
Prediction : 1st Alnadir 2nd Albert Finney 3rd Korcho

ASSEMBLED probably built on his debut Wetherby third when finishing fourth in a Doncaster event that looks stronger than this one. Further anticipated improvement means he is the one to beat, although Desert Lion will make him go a bit if he can reproduce the form of his Kempton introduction rather than his costly Thirsk loss. Hat Yai and Jack D'Or aren't out of it, while Squelch represents a trainer who knows how to ready first-timers.
Prediction : 1st Assembled 2nd Desert Lion 3rd Squelch
