Steve Ryder picks out three to follow at Ayr and Windsor on Monday.
2:30 AyrSee All Odds
Woohoo (1pt)
Best price 5/2.
The Jim Goldie trained WOOHOO (best priced at 5/2) finished 2nd over this course and distance last week and she should hold strong claims with Paul Mulrennan taking back over on board. The five-year-old has form figures of 5112 at Ayr in her career including two victories over 6f.
Woohoo ran well to finish 2nd over this course and distance last time off this mark of 70 under 5lb claimer Kayleigh Williams and she is now ridden by Paul Mulrennan for the first time since winning here in June 2025.

War Memorial (0.5pt ew)
Best price 6/1.
This looks a competitive 0-60 handicap but I am willing to take a chance on WAR MEMORIAL (best priced at 6/1) who has bounced back to form on turf recently. The Lawrence Mullaney trained five-year-old returned from a 50 day break to win at Musselburgh off a mark of 49 before resenting the first-time cheekpieces at Doncaster on softer ground on his next start.
War Memorial then finished 3rd beaten only ½ length at Musselburgh before justifying favouritism at Catterick over this 7f trip when ridden by Conor Whiteley for the first time. He runs here off a 4lb higher mark following his 1 ½ length success and looks sure to run well.
8:20 WindsorSee All Odds
Silent City (1pt)
Best price 10/11.
SILENT CITY (best priced at 10/11) caught the eye when a never nearer 3rd over a mile on her reappearance and she looks the one to beat stepped up in trip to 1m2f for the first time. The Roger Varian trained filly has a consistent profile with form figures of 4123123 in her career including a victory over a mile here last season by 3 ¾ lengths.
Silent City was returning from 246 days off the track when 3rd beaten only 1 ¼ lengths last time. She didn’t get the clearest of runs before staying on strongly at the finish over a mile at Newmarket. Off the same mark and stepped up in trip to 1m2f, she looks the one to beat.
