Fitzdares Sprint Series Handicap (Windsor Sprint Series Qualifier)

His only win in two years came in Bahrain last March; not beaten far at Nottingham on his recent British return but it took him a long time to pick up; returning to 6f can help; not ruled out for an in-form yard.

Shaped okay at Lingfield in January; down the field at Leicester last month but he was harried up front and weakened in the final furlong; dropped 2lb and this easier track will help; one to consider.

C&D win off a 3lb higher mark last July; none too consistent on AW over the winter but it wouldn't be a huge surprise to see him bounce back to form returned to turf.

Slow start to 2026 but there was more encouragement with his fourth of ten at Ascot on Friday (6f, good; well backed); he will need to step up again to take this but it is not out of the question.

Won a C&D handicap off this mark last August; two creditable runs this spring and returning to faster ground should suit; chance.
