Windsor 5:15 Result

Top-rated horse in a weak Class 6 field on OR 54, and crucially in red-hot form: 242132 shows he's been running well and just won last time out 6 days ago, indicating he's fit, in form and fresh off the back of a victory. Trainer-jockey combo Adam Kirby training his own horse suggests confidence, and Charles Bishop is a capable rider. The addition of blinkers (p) could sharpen him further. Draw 9 is workable at Windsor 5f. Most rivals are out of form (Bama Lama, Tilsworth Ony Ta, Reporter, Bated Breeze all show strings of losing runs), stepping up in class from lower marks, or absent for long layoffs (Lethal Blast 124 days). Dreambird Dolly (OR 53) is the closest market rival with a similar profile and same sire, but her recent form dipped to 5-4 finishes after an early break, whereas My Mate Mackley's figures are trending upward with two wins in the last six. This looks like the strongest, most progressive profile in a moderate field, and he rates a confident selection.
