Windsor Race 2 - Fitzdares Telephone & Text Betting Restricted Novice Stakes (GBB Race)
Godolphin runner FIGHTER'S SPIRIT (2) can double his tally. The Masar gelding impressed when a 0.5L winner of a 2000m Beverley maiden and appears just eighteen days later. This looks winnable under a penalty. CAPE FEAR (5) takes him on again and looks the main challenger. Sent off favourite when finishing second and that was his third outing. Holds an experience advantage and is also favoured in the weights this time given the the main selection receives a penalty. MY MATE ROGER (6) produced back-to-back seconds. His 3L defeat over 1600m at Yarmouth thirty days ago was encouraging. BATTLE HYMN (4) is worth a market check.

He didn't show too much in his two career starts so happy to risk him here today. Hard to consider.
