Tip for this race
All today's tips ›James Dean is our selection at Windsor, and the case rests on a rating of 100, which is the only one we hold in this nine-runner Class 5 contest over 16 furlongs on good ground. The other eight, including Arco Sancho, By Your Leave, Folkham and Hosiery, are unrated by us, so there is little to separate them on form we can verify, and that leaves James Dean with the strongest standing on the page. The danger is that any of the unrated runners could prove better than they look, which is why our confidence is only low. Even so, James Dean looks the one to side with, so he is the selection.

Arco Sancho is totally unexposed, with no recorded form to go on, so this gelding is open to plenty of improvement on debut. He carries 156 lb, and the lack of a public run leaves plenty to learn.

By Your Leave is an unraced colt with no form to go on, so he is wholly unexposed and open to improvement. He carries 156 lb, and his debut will show what he has learned at home.

Folkham is totally unexposed, with no recorded form to go on, so this gelding's debut is a leap into the unknown and there should be scope for improvement. He carries 156 lb, and he is yet to win.

Hosiery is an unraced debutant with no form to go on, so he's unexposed and open to improvement. He carries 156 lb on his first start, and any progress would be a bonus.

James Dean showed up with a fifth last time out and returns after 39 days, having already run over today's trip and on this going, which makes him the one to beat on our figures. He carries 156 lb, a fair weight to shoulder, though he is yet to win in his recent form.

Unraced and unexposed, New Addington Boy makes his debut with no form to go on, so there's plenty of scope for improvement. He carries 156 lb, and what he shows first time out will tell us most.

Noe Le Dun is an unexposed debutant with no recorded form to go on, so he's open to improvement, though he's a blank slate carrying 156 lb. Lightly raced is an understatement, and he is one to learn about on the day.

Unexposed debutant with no recorded form to lean on, so he's open to any amount of improvement; he carries 156 lb, and it's a case of taking him on trust first time out.
