Verdict

STRICT TEMPO wandered under pressure last time at Newmarket but that was a much better race than this. She’d earlier been placed twice at Bath and Andrew Balding’s filly deserves another try over this trip. Sky Patrol will probably do better in handicaps but has shown enough to suggest he can figure here and the booking of Ryan Moore for Dandy Lad will ensure the Windsor third attracts support. Thierry and Toro Dorado are likely improvers while Halle's Harbour should prove the pick of his trainer two runners with De Sousa doing the steering.
