4.35 Newbury: Naval Tribute

13/8

Has looked progressive since entering the handicap system, winning twice improving for a greater test of stamina.

He saw out the two-mile trip well last time when runner-up at Ascot and off a 1lb higher mark he is sure to go close in what looks a weaker contest.

6.45 Windsor: Gold Digger

2/5

She has to concede the penalty but has looked smart on both starts, beating the now 101-rated Awaken on debut, before shaping better than the bare result when sixth in the Albany having raced too freely following a slow jump from the stalls.

She's a group class filly and, providing she's ready to go after a break, I think she'll win this.

7.15 Windsor: Sayidah Hard Spun (E/W)

30/1

She's a talented filly, but often shows some temperament in her races. However, her latest effort at Newmarket is best forgotten as she failed to handle the track.

Her fifth-placed effort at Kempton in Group Three company when beaten just over a length suggests she's better than this mark of 87. She's the each-way selection.
