Thames Alfa Romeo Slough Handicap

Reliable sort who has run with credit every time she's been to Windsor, most recently when leading over 1f out for a comfortable C&D win (good to firm) in June; second off this 4lb higher mark at Newbury on her only start since; should go well again.

A win and two seconds (one here on good to firm) in her first three handicaps; cut out disappointingly in the last 2f when well-beaten last of four at Salisbury on latest start, which was her first attempt at 1m4f (this isn't much shorter and she's not stoutly bred) but connections now reach for headgear; made the running on last three outings.

Made most and rallied well to win at Epsom (1m2f) in July on handicap debut, officially on good ground but probably good to firm; it had rained when disappointing favourite off this 4lb higher mark at Sandown (1m2f, good) two weeks later, chasing leaders before finding little; she's a player on the Epsom win and, as a 3yo, could have more to give.

Veteran who's had ten wins overall and has a 3-22 record at Windsor, which also includes five seconds; he's not sparked this season but the best of those performances was a C&D third on reappearance and he's now 8lb lower, racing off a career-low mark.
