J: William Carson

Eight-time Windsor winner, including twice of late, who's having a first run round here; ultra-consistent, especially considering his age and that he's usually dropped in, but there's little room for manoeuvre off this mark; yard also responsible for Duskaura.

Form & Verdict
His last success was in December 2024 but he's on a dangerous mark and wasn't beaten far in a Class 3 over C&D (good to firm) two weeks ago; has possibilities on this big drop back in grade and three of his eight wins have come at this track; visor is removed and cheekpieces return.

Off the mark at the ninth attempt when justifying 13-8 favouritism with a comfortable win at Nottingham (6f, good to firm) two weeks ago; up 7lb but that was a personal best last time and he's still unexposed at this trip; key player.

Versatile 7yo who has won ten times at up to 1m; hasn't made an impact since his Leicester win (6f, good to firm) in May but he had lots of traffic issues at Newbury three weeks ago; can put a line through that and he's a player if he gets some luck this time.
