Monday’s UK racing tips come your way from the meeting at Windsor on 3 June 2024.
WINDSOR
Race 3 – RED PIXIE 33/20
RED PIXIE let down favourite backers last time but should be given chance to redeem herself in the Download The Fitzdares App Now Fillies’ Novice Stakes.
Sir Michael Stoute sent her to Kempton back in November for a first taste of racecourse action and she ran well enough to be beaten a length and a half in fourth place after a less than perfect start.
She was then sent off the 5/2 market leader at Yarmouth at the end of April but had to settle for third, beaten just over a length by the well-related newcomer Run Away.
The second-placed Cat Ninja, who has since come out and won, collared her late on for the minor honours over seven furlongs, so it perhaps makes sense to move back to six here.
Race 4 – BLUE DAY 15/10
BLUE DAY struck gold for the first time on his seasonal bow and can double his tally in the Fitzdares Sprint Series Qualifier Handicap at Windsor.
Three runs as a juvenile did not yield a win but he was beaten no further than three and a quarter lengths in finishing fourth twice and second once, with a clutch of winners emerging from the also-rans on all three occasions, including subsequent Group Two-placed Mister Sketch.
Given his rock-solid form, it was no real surprise to see Blue Day sent off a 6/5 favourite on his return at Southwell in April and he made short work of his rivals on handicap debut.
Given an initial mark of 77, he ran out a cosy length-and-a-half winner, with plenty appearing to be left in the locker, which is particularly important as he is rated 7lb higher now.
Race 5 – FLINDRIKIN 2/1
FLINDRIKIN comes into the Get Raceday Ready Handicap fresh and will be looking to pick up where she left off.
She rounded off her last campaign with an impressive win over one-mile-and-two-furlongs over the all-weather at Newcastle. She makes her Turf debut and could have enough to win this.
