A busy Friday with Windsor taking centre stage and here are the thoughts of our Long Shot tipster.

Hansard showed some progressive form over hurdles last season including a win at Newbury. He ran a good race after a near one year absence last time out at Kempton when finishing 4th of 8, travelling strongly in the race and only just getting tired towards the end of the race. He should strip a lot fitter today and can be in the mix at the business end of the race. It's worth noting that Hansard was tried in grade 1 novice company two seasons ago and being only 7 years old could still have some improvement in him. Hansard rates a 4 star each way Pick.
