Ex Lover was fancied to make a winning debut at Windsor but faded in the closing stages and eventually finished behind The Otmoor Poet, who ran a bit better than his starting price suggested he would. Glance My Way and Hepplewhite are looking a bit exposed and they usually find a way of getting beat but Fashion Parade and Henry Croft have only had two runs apiece and still have scope for improvement. SYCARA has only raced once and her effort is hard to gauge as she missed the break and never figured. But she'll know more today and could be decent each-way value if handling the conditions.
