UK Horse Racing Tips: Kempton

HANAKOTOBA got away well at Wolverhampton to score over 5f last time and could follow up for Stuart Williams. A course and distance winner in October, the return to this trip isn't an issue, and a 5lb rise doesn't look too harsh considering that the runner-up has since scored at Lingfield. Camachess (also engaged to run at Wolverhampton yesterday) is nicely drawn and beat an odds-on shot at Newcastle last week, while Maisie Moo put in a career best when a 66-1 third on Tapeta 15 days ago.
Prediction : 1st Hanakotoba 2nd Camachess 3rd Maisie Moo

TULLOONA has shown up well in two career starts thus far, showing enough to suggest that he can land one of these. The step back up from 6f should suit the three-year-old, and a better start from the stalls would also help given that he has a double-figure draw. May Sonic looks best of the newcomers on paper, while Guiding Spirit and Zorro's Girl are others to consider closely for their respective leading yards.
Prediction : 1st Tulloona 2nd May Sonic 3rd Zorros Girl

ULSTER probably did too much too soon when second here last time and could benefit from a more patient ride. The step up from 1m6f is expected to eke out further improvement from the four-year-old, and he can claim a third win from just five career starts. Perfect Summer represents a shrewd yard and could appreciate this return to the Flat, while Alabaster is a course winner and merits a market check.
Prediction : 1st Ulster 2nd Alabaster 3rd Perfect Summer

MOONLIT SEA has displayed promise in three starts in novice company and he was not beaten far last time out over C&D. That performance suggests that an opening mark of 66 should be workable for this son of Sea The Moon. Heatherdown has to be respected having won his final start for Michael Bell in January, while Torolight and Greyzee could also go well.
Prediction : 1st Moonlit Sea 2nd Heatherdown 3rd Torolight

DANCING JO had been running consistently well prior to his small break and that includes his narrow victory at Lingfield last time out. A 2lb rise in the ratings for that success is fair and he appears to be the one to beat once again. Shug put in a career best on his handicap debut last month and he could have more to offer, while Lee Roy completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Dancing Jo 2nd Shug 3rd Lee Roy

JAI HANUMAN arrives in the form of his life having bolted up over C&D last Wednesday and a 7lb penalty may not be enough to stop Michael Wigham's gelding. Accomplice has placed on her last couple of starts at Chelmsford and is likely to be in the mix one again, along with Naralsaif, who ran more than respectably despite proving unable to complete the four-timer on her latest start.
Prediction : 1st Jai Hanuman 2nd Accomplice 3rd Naralsaif

MY TOWN CHICAGO makes a fair amount of appeal on his handicap debut after showing promise in maiden/novice company. He raced keenly on his latest start but has subsequently been gelded, and the drop back from an extended 1m1f at Wolverhampton last time looks in his favour. Stand N Deliver has been running consistently well throughout the winter and is respected with the visor being kept on after his second here latest, while Cold Fire's recent C&D success puts him in the mix.
Prediction : 1st My Town Chicago 2nd Stand N Deliver 3rd Cold Fire

VIOLA PARK returned to winning ways over C&D a fortnight ago and a 4lb rise for that success seems more than fair for Ronald Harris' gelding. The cheekpieces were reapplied on that occasion and are kept on again, which will aid his cause. Shamlan finished second at Wolverhampton on his latest start and is on a winnable mark, while the hat-trick seeking Elusif completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Viola Park 2nd Shamlan 3rd Elusif
