Newsboy's racing tips for Monday's four meetings, including Windsor Nap
Newsboy expects his Nap, Macari, to defy a 5lb penalty and score a quick-fire double in the Knightsbridge Circle Handicap (7.20) at Windsor and he also believes Woolhampton can bounce back to form in the 6.50
MACARI can score a quick double when he takes on a penalty at Windsor tonight in the Knightsbridge Circle Handicap (7.20).
A winner over hurdles earlier in the year for trainer Sheena West, he built on a solid effort at Goodwood earlier this month, to defeat Youthful King and win a valuable prize at Salisbury on Thursday under 5lb claimer Rose Dawes.
West now turns him out quickly under a 5lb penalty, cancelled out by Dawes's allowance, in a lower class race. The trip is two furlongs shorter but he won over the distance at Newbury and should be capable of following up.
With two runs under her belt, WOOLHAMPTON (6.50) can get back to winning ways on her return to her favoured trip of five furlongs in the Fitzdares Sprint Series Handicap.
The mare won four times last year, including over course and distance last June off a mark of 85 under today's apprentice jockey Oliver Searle.
She won off a rating of 91 subsequently and after a couple of sighters at Bath and Ascot, she tackles this contest off 93.
Trainer Rod Millman has saddled more winners at Windsor than any other track so his runners by the Thames can never be written off.

Liverpool turn down Barcelona's approach for winger Luis Diaz
The Colombia international has been a target for the LaLiga champions for some time, although he has also been attracting interest from Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr. Only last month Barca's sporting director Deco publicly named Diaz, and Manchester United's Marcus Rashford, when talking about their transfer plans. However, the PA news agency understands when the Catalan club made an approach to Liverpool on Wednesday they were told they had no intention of selling. Diaz turned 28 in January and has two years remaining on his current deal but it is believed there are currently no plans to open negotiations on any extension. However, with Darwin Nunez expected to depart this summer and the future of Federico Chiesa in doubt after a frustrating debut season in which he made just 14 appearances, Arne Slot's Premier League-winning forward line already looks like losing two of its members. The arrival of Florian Wirtz, with discussions ongoing with Bayer Leverkusen over the transfer fee after a recent £109million bid was rejected, will likely offset the impact of that – especially as Nunez and Chiesa contributed just nine goals between them. But it is understood potentially losing a third member of the attack would only be sanctioned if there was a bid which allows Liverpool to significantly improve the team or if the player agitated for a move. Last month Diaz told American-Spanish television channel Telemundo: 'For me, I'd stay however many years it takes.' Liverpool have already recruited Jeremie Frimpong from Leverkusen to strengthen their right side following the departure of Trent Alexander-Arnold and are looking to bolster the left with a move for Bournemouth defender Milos Kerkez. The Cherries value the 21-year-old Hungary international, who is keen on a move to Anfield, at £45m but Liverpool's sporting director Richard Hughes is currently negotiating with his former club over the fee. Liverpool have announced they would start their pre-season with a friendly at Preston on July 13, prior to them flying to Hong Kong and Japan for matches against AC Milan and Yokohama

Lauren James and Michelle Agyemang named in England's Euro 2025 squad
James has been absent since April with a hamstring issue but has recovered in time to claim her seat on the plane alongside 19-year-old forward Agyemang, who spent the season on loan at Brighton from Arsenal and scored 41 seconds into her England debut as a substitute against Belgium in April. Agyemang is one of seven players making their major tournament debuts, while Chelsea defender Lucy Bronze is set for her seventh including four consecutive Euros, one of 13 players who carry over from Wiegman's 2022 champions. The 23 #Lionesses heading to Switzerland! #WEURO2025 💫 — Lionesses (@Lionesses) June 5, 2025 England boss Wiegman said: 'I know this is an exciting day, for the players and also for our fans, and it underlines that the tournament is coming soon. 'Telling the players they have made the squad is always a great moment. They will all give everything to help us make the country proud. 'This group is a very well-balanced mix of players with multiple tournaments on their CVs and also those that will make their tournament debuts. I am excited to see what we are capable of this summer. 'At the same time, I do feel for those that have just missed out. I can only name 23 but there are more players who have been so important to us on our journey to Switzerland. We would not be here without them. 'As we look forward, we still have a month to go until we play the first game. After some important rest, we will all be working really hard to make sure we are ready to go on July 5.' Aggie Beever-Jones (Chelsea), Grace Clinton (Manchester United), Maya Le Tissier (Manchester United) and Jess Park (Manchester City) all make their major tournament debuts alongside both back-ups for first-choice goalkeeper Hannah Hampton, with Khiara Keating (Manchester City) and Anna Moorhouse (Orlando Pride) making the cut. Leah Williamson returns to captain the Lionesses after missing out on the World Cup with injury and she will be joined in Switzerland by Arsenal team-mate Chloe Kelly, who scored the extra-time winner against Germany in the Wembley final at the 2022 Euros. It has been a tumultuous journey for the 27-year-old, who earlier this year took to social media to express her displeasure about her situation and playing time – particularly with the Euros in mind – at Manchester City before she was loaned to Arsenal, and was instrumental in the second half of their league season and Champions League-winning campaign. Arsenal on Wednesday confirmed they were in talks with Kelly, whose contract at City is expiring, about a permanent deal. Lauren Hemp (Manchester City), Georgia Stanway (Bayern Munich) and Alex Greenwood (Manchester City), all of whom recently returned from long-term knee injuries, are included but long-time Lionesses goalkeeper Mary Earps and experienced forward Fran Kirby have both announced their international retirements in recent days. England travel to Switzerland on June 30th and open their title defence against France in Zurich on Saturday, July 5 then meet the Netherlands – who won their home Euros under Wiegman in 2017 – four days later and Wales in St Gallen on July 13. Four standby players – Sophie Baggaley (Brighton), Laura Blindkilde Brown (Manchester City), Missy Bo Kearns (Aston Villa) and Lucy Parker (Aston Villa) have also been announced and will stay with the squad at St George's Park until they fly out.
