UK Horse Racing Tips: Windsor

HE'S GOT GAME did well to finish second over C&D last month despite taking a keen hold, and the form of that race has worked out extremely well in the interim. A 2lb rise for that effort could prove lenient and Hugo Palmer's charge can get off the mark at the main expense of Let's Get Em, who improved from first to second start this season when runner-up at Brighton over 7f. Wolverhampton scorer Cadogan Gardens and Global Asset cannot be ruled out either.
Prediction : 1st Hes Got Game 2nd Lets Get Em 3rd Cadogan Gardens

A highly-promising second on her debut over C&D last month despite swerving right at the start, WOODHAY WHISPER sets the standard and improvement is expected on that effort. Tom Ward's filly is preferred to Storm Call, who also ran an excellent first time out over 5f at Southwell, when not getting the clearest of runs and keeping on for second late in the piece. A well-bred daughter of Blue Point, Pouting looks to be the pick of the newcomers, while Li Ban is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Woodhay Whisper 2nd Storm Call 3rd Pouting

Slight preference is for MASTER BUILDER, who ran an eye-catching race on debut over C&D when slowly away before staying on late in the day to grab second. With improvement expected, the son of Mastercraftsmen should be able to go one better, with Yarmouth runner-up Lennox looking best placed to chase him home on the rise in distance. Thyer is another to consider despite having to shoulder a 7lb penalty for a comfortable victory at Thirsk last September.
Prediction : 1st Master Builder 2nd Lennox 3rd Thyer

The Andrew Balding stable have been in terrific form of late and CUBAN MELODY could provide them with further success today. The daughter of Havana Grey has weakened late on both of her starts over 7f, so this drop to a sprint trip could see the filly sustain her finishing effort. William Haggas' Mono River was relatively weak in the market when occupying the runner-up spot at Yarmouth nine days ago and a similar level of performance will bring him firmly into the picture. Penalised Southwell winner Federal Envoy and newcomer Laguna Boy are just two others to consider.
Prediction : 1st Cuban Melody 2nd Mono River 3rd Federal Envoy

Laoisman completed his hat-trick from a 3lb lower mark at Wolverhampton last month and he could yet have more to offer back on turf, but it is KATEY KONTENT who gets the vote. Clive Cox's filly bumped into an improver on her final start as a three-year-old in October, and a 1lb rise in the ratings looks unlikely to prevent a bold showing. Leap Abroad was on target at Leicester 16 days ago and he remains well treated off 3lb higher.
Prediction : 1st Katey Kontent 2nd Laoisman 3rd Leap Abroad

LAWN RANGER shaped as if in need of the outing at Kempton 12 days ago but Michael Attwater's charge, twice a winner over C&D under Robert Havlin last season, could find his sparkle now returned to this venue. Loughville was a narrow victor on soft ground at Bath last month but the form hasn't worked out particularly well, so a 4lb rise might seem harsh on that evidence. However, she remains open to further improvement and should not be underestimated, while Abu Royal is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Lawn Ranger 2nd Loughville 3rd Abu Royal

QUIETNESS ran with plenty of credit when coming from well off the pace to finish third over 1m3f at Kempton when last seen and, eased 1lb on her stable debut, she edges preference in what looks a competitive affair. Dovena only found a subsequent winner too good when finishing runner-up in a similar contest at Bath on her final start of last season and, provided she is fully tuned up on her return, she commands respect off a 1lb higher mark. The consistent Free Speech arrives on the back of a creditable second over C&D recently and she completes the shortlist off an unchanged mark.
Prediction : 1st Quietness 2nd Dovena 3rd Free Speech

RECON MISSION bounced right back to form when finishing a gallant second over 5f at Leicester last month, just giving best late on, and on forecast faster ground this time, Tony Carroll's charge may take some pegging back off an unchanged mark. Stryder can emerge as the main danger provided he can transfer his recent all-weather form to turf, while Inspired Knowhow's recent third over 6f at Yarmouth can be upgraded, as he was hampered early on, and a bold display here would be no surprise off a 1lb lower mark.
Prediction : 1st Recon Mission 2nd Stryder 3rd Inspired Knowhow
