TrackLab Insight
The standout here is that she's won over this exact course and distance before — a genuine plus at Windsor 5f. However, her recent form has been poor, finishing seventh just two weeks ago at this same track, and she wins only 1 in 12 races, making her a risky proposition despite the course experience.

TrackLab Insight
A consistent performer with places in 2 of her last 3 races and a 25% win rate on standard ground, but she's winless in 5 attempts on good ground — which is what she'll face here. At 1 win in 7 races overall, she's reliable rather than exciting, and hasn't raced in over a month.

Like Kiss And Run, Merrimack has won at Windsor 5f before and comes here with fresh form — a second-place finish at Bath just 12 days ago. He wins roughly 1 in 7 races and finishes in the places in nearly two-thirds of his outings, making him a dependable sort, though he does struggle on slow ground and hasn't won over this course recently.

TrackLab Insight
The market favourite with the best win rate in the field (1 in 4.5) and the best record on dry ground (2 wins from 5 tries). This three-year-old is improving and just missed by a nose at Yarmouth, with decent form over 5f, but his jockey-trainer combination has never won together in 11 attempts, which is a concern.

Trainer Quotes
May 2026
"He ran five times as a two-year-old and won a couple of races, both at Brighton. He was supposed to run at Yarmouth the other day but he misbehaved in the starting gate and got his leg trapped, so he had to be withdrawn. He has a lot of speed and looks as if he's wintered really well and turned into quite a nice, big three-year-old. I would hope he has a good career in front of him. He'd be my dark horse. 20-05-26"

TrackLab Insight
The most experienced horse in the field with 50 races under her belt, Moe's Legacy wins roughly 1 in 6 times and has a solid record on fast ground — but she's struggled to win on anything softer, and there's no wins on good ground from 7 attempts. She's been racing consistently at Bath recently but hasn't won in her last six outings, making her a solid clock-puncher rather than a standout here.

TrackLab Insight
At just three years old, this gelding is still learning the game with only 13 races under his belt and a recent win at Ffos Las to his credit. He's rated second-best in the field but comes back here to Windsor where he's finished 14th and 5th in his last two tries, suggesting this course hasn't quite clicked yet.

TrackLab Insight
Winless from 10 career races, this three-year-old is searching for his first winner but has picked up two places recently including a third at Goodwood. The name suggests optimism but the record doesn't back it up — he's struggled in stronger company and remains a maiden.

This six-year-old has been knocking on the door with places in 2 of his last 3 races, but his record is thin — just 3 wins from 46 races overall. He's never won at this course, struggles on sharp left-hand tracks (0 from 8), and there's nothing in his profile that makes him stand out against stronger opponents here.

This four-year-old is on a purple patch, winning 3 of her last 6 races and winning roughly 1 in 5 overall. She loves the 5f distance and has an excellent record on standard ground (4 from 10), though she's been off for seven weeks and her last run at Goodwood was disappointing.

TrackLab Insight
Relatively inexperienced at just 7 races, this three-year-old has won only once and was well beaten at Windsor just 30 days ago. His recent form shows knocking on the door (4th and 5th placings) but nothing concrete, and he's winless on good ground from 3 attempts.

The lowest-rated horse in the field at 13lb below average, this three-year-old filly carries the least weight but has won nothing from 6 races. Her recent form is patchy — a ninth last time out — and she looks completely outclassed in this line-up.

TrackLab Insight
This is a racecourse debut — no form to speak of — but the editorial verdict rates him 14lb clear of his rivals, making him substantially the best horse on paper. By the speed stallion Exceed And Excel, he has the breeding for this sharp 5f contest, though racecourse debuts always carry uncertainty.

How do odds work? The first number is what you win, the second is what you bet. So 5/2 means you win £5 for every £2. 4/1 means you win £4 for every £1. The bigger the first number, the less likely bookmakers think the horse will win — but the more you'd win if it does.
