3.53 Windsor - Kylian and Trefor lock horns in feature
Kylian and Trefor lock horns in the feature of the afternoon at Windsor - the Fitzdares Sprint Series Handicap.
Top-rated Kylian represents Middleham Park Racing after switching to Robert Cowell's yard in March from Archie Watson. This Listed winner arrives here having been well beaten at York last time out and has been dropped a pound to 99 for that run.
Trefor is a highly-campaigned sort for Charlie Hills with six wins from 19 starts. He brings to the table a big handicap win at York on his third last start from August last year. He had been off the track since September until being turned out at Goodwood earlier in the month, where he was well beaten. However, he should strip much fitter and could be bang there under Tom Marquand.

- Daryz decisive in straightforward Prix Aga Khan IV triumph
Desert Cop was rated 105 at his peak but is now down to his lowest mark since 2023 and could be underrated for George Baker.
4.25 Windsor - Greek Order takes on six rivals
Michael Bell's Greek Order faces six rivals in the competitive Find Us At fitzdares.com Handicap, where the winner takes home just short of £10,000.
Fourth in the Royal Hunt Cup last year, he brings some high-class form having been just touched off by My Cloud that day at Royal Ascot. His form has somewhat dipped since that then, only finishing 11th of 20 in last season's Balmoral Handicap on Champions Day.
The rest of the field are not in the best form either, but Auld Toon Loon is the top-weight and did win over course and distance here last August in the Racing League. He has only been seen once since, finishing eighth at Chester earlier this month.
Merveilleux Lapin is an interesting runner on her first start for Owen Burrows, despite being last seen finishing 12th of as many runners in the Group One Prix de l'Opera on Arc Day.
11.30 Santa Anita - Thought Process and Take A Breath battle to claim first G1
Last-time-out Group winners Thought Process and Take A Breath battle to claim their first Grade Ones respectively in the Gamely Stakes at Santa Anita.
Thought Process has won a Grade Three and Grade Two - the latter of which came most recently over a mile here at the track in the Buena Vista Stakes. With that in the bag, she more than deserves to take her place again in top company for the first time since the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf in 2024.
Hat-trick seeker Take A Breath comes here off the back of two Grade Three wins at the track - one over 10 furlongs and the other over a mile. She competes at the top level again after finishing fourth in the American Oaks last year.
Rashmi took out the Grade Three Wilshire Stakes in March and could trouble the judge.
