Timeform examine the action at Windsor on Monday
Timeform examine the runners in an interesting handicap at Windsor...
Cousin Khee is a fairly useful hurdler who showed plenty of speed to win 2 jumpers' bumpers this winter and off mark at second time of asking on Flat in 13f Lingfield maiden in February. Open to further progress.
Sula Two was back to her best when winning 3 times at up to 13f last term. Also placed twice off this mark in the autumn and much depends on whether she's primed after her winter break.
Dr Livingstone missed all of 2012 but made up for lost time of late, landing brace of jumpers' bumpers in January. Good second in 1m Wolverhampton handicap earlier this month and should be thereabouts again.
Perfect Delight got off the mark in 1m Newbury maiden last June, but found life harder in handicaps since, finishing no better than sixth on her last 5 starts. Yard in form ahead of return but others still preferred.
Saint Helena has not won since 2011 but went close at Folkestone last September and made a good return to action when third on AW at Kempton at the start of this month. Does have a higher mark on turf, though.
Paloma's Prince got off the mark over 1m here on last year's reappearance and once again made a winning start to campaign at Kempton (1m) earlier this month. Needs to prove he can string good efforts together now.
Jacobs Son has been enjoying a good spell on AW of late, winning 3 times and good placed efforts on last 2 starts. Just as good on turf earlier in career so no reason he won't give his running again.
Sondeduro improved to win 1m Bath minor event in June and better still when second in 1m AW handicap next time. Was well below form on recent return, though, and need to see more before lending support.
Refractor has saved his best for AW at Kempton so far, winning 3 times there, including 1m handicap in September for James Fanshawe. Below form on recent debut for new yard but does have lower mark on turf.
Attwaal has been progressive for his new yard, winning over 1m at Lingfield last month and following up with a comfortable enough victory over C&D a fortnight ago. 6 lb rise more than fair and sure to go well.
Brown Pete thrived in December, completing a hat-trick in the space of 7 days, and creditable placed efforts on turf last 2 starts. Likely to continue in form but does have stamina to prove here.
Choral Festival is a likeable mare who won over 1m at Sandown in June and placed here no less than 7 times later in 2012. Shaped well when fifth on 1m reappearance here and should be spot on now. Needs considering.
Star Date was a fair performer for Gerard Butler, winning 9f Ripon maiden last May. Struggled in handicaps towards end of 2012 but that does at least mean he's come down in weights ahead of debut for new yard.
Focail Maith led close home to score from reduced mark at Lingfield in December. Runner-up next 3 starts but just respectable efforts at best when sixth on turf last 2 starts.
Timeform 1-2-3:
1. Choral Festival
2. Attwaal
3. Dr Livingstone
Timeform View: A competitive handicap. Choral Festival has a fine record at this venue and is taken to resume winning ways after catching the eye on her reappearance here a fortnight ago. Recent C&D scorer Attwaal won't go down with a fight on his hat-trick bid, with Dr Livingstone and Cousin Khee a couple of others who should go well.
