TrackLab Insight
Maximising has drifted dramatically from 1.1 to 4.6 despite two narrow placings on soft ground recently, but faces a critical test here—he's never raced on dry ground in his career and his low draw (1) offers only a 13% win-rate advantage at Windsor. With just one win from nine races and a preference for standard ground, he looks out of his depth in this field.
Never raced on dry ground
Market favourite (4.6)
TrackLab Insight
Bubbles Wonky is the only horse in this field with a proven record on dry, fast ground (1 win from 3 starts at 33%), and he arrives in electric form with three straight top-three finishes, including a win at Sandown just 23 days ago. His low draw (2) aligns with Windsor's bias, making him a genuine threat despite being paired with jockey Billy Loughnane for the first time.
Best record on this ground (1 from 3)
3 straight top-3 finishes
Trainer Quotes
Apr 2024
"He's training really well and we think he's pretty good. I think a mile is probably his trip and he seems to go well with give in the ground. 23-04-24"
TrackLab Insight
Bold Impact is one of the few course winners in this field with a victory at Windsor 47 days ago, but last time out here (16 days ago) he finished seventh, suggesting he's peaked at this track or the race setup has changed against him. His preference for soft ground (1 win from 4 starts) directly conflicts with today's dry conditions.
One of few course winners (1 wins here)

TrackLab Insight
Potomac River is the least experienced runner in the field with just seven career races and zero wins to his name, making him a significant question mark in a competitive handicap. His recent third at Newmarket (9 days ago) shows he's in work, but inexperience, lack of a winner's mentality, and low odds (9.2) suggest he's being backed more by hope than form.
Relatively inexperienced (7 career races)
TrackLab Insight
Eazy On The Eye showed real promise with three straight top-three finishes and was just 0.1 lengths away from victory at Windsor 33 days ago, but she's winless on good ground (0 from 4 races) and her specialty is Wolverhampton (2 wins from 5 starts, 40%), not this track. The 33-day absence also suggests she may not have trained on since that near-miss.
3 straight top-3 finishes
TrackLab Insight
Happy Banner shares the joint-top rating with Stardancer but the editorial prefers Stardancer's upward trajectory—and the market agrees, with Happy Banner at 8.2 having drifted from 1.1. His 7% career win rate and zero wins on good ground make him a poor fit for today, despite two placings in his last three outings suggesting he's not finished.
Placed in 2 of last 3 races
TrackLab Insight
The editorial selection and second-highest rated in the field, Stardancer won at Chepstow 63 days ago and has a progressive profile that justifies his support—but his recent fourth at Kempton (17 days back) and concerning 0% record on good ground are red flags for today's dry conditions at Windsor. His high draw (11) compounds the difficulty: he needs everything to click when form and track conditions don't naturally suit.
2nd highest rated (OR 77)
TrackLab Insight
Newfangled brings the best career win rate in the field (1 in 5 races) and has won at Windsor before, but recent form is a concern: three straight defeats including a sixth at Brighton just 24 days ago. His expertise on standard ground (56% win rate over 9 starts) is largely irrelevant today, and he's never proved effective over this exact distance/conditions combination.
Has won over this course and distance
Best career win rate in field (1 in 5)
TrackLab Insight
Berry Clever is a muddy-ground specialist (3 wins from 9 starts on wet surfaces) with zero wins on fast ground from six attempts, making him fundamentally unsuited to Windsor's dry conditions today. His recent form reads as consistently modest (three straight fourths), and his only course win at Kempton (3 from 10) offers little comfort at a different track.
Among the more experienced (33 career races)
TrackLab Insight
Albus Anne is the lowest-rated runner by 6 pounds and carries the lightest weight, but she's a specialist at Bath (5 wins from 8 races, 62%)—not Windsor. After 81 days away and carrying zero wins on good-to-firm ground from four attempts, she's returning from a significant layoff to face an unsuitable surface, making her odds (21.0) fair reflection of her chances.
Lowest rated, 6lbs below average

TrackLab Insight
Tribal Wisdom is the most experienced horse in the field (50 career races) but has a fatal flaw: 0 wins from 10 attempts on good-to-firm ground, which rules him out entirely today despite his 21% win rate on standard ground. After 152 days away, he's also returning from his longest break, and his form before that layoff reads as poor (6th, 5th, 6th).

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.
