UK Horse Racing Tips: Kempton

CASUAL REPLY lines up in receipt of a good chunk of weight from the Godolphin pair and makes plenty of appeal. Roger Charlton's inmate is improving between runs, judged on her latest neck defeat at Chelmsford, and a good performance here on debut offers hope she'll go very close. Stable companions Dubai Future and Beauvais have absences to overcome but are proven winners and cannot go unconsidered.
Prediction : 1st Casual Reply 2nd Dubai Future 3rd Beauvais

Laser Show impressed when making a winning debut at Sandown in July, but may struggle to successfully give BOOK REVIEW 7lb as the latter stayed on well for the silver medal on deep Nottingham ground on his introduction. Entitled to have improved for that effort, the quick turnaround suggests he's in good nick and everything points to a bold display on his all-weather bow. Lord Neidin is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Book Review 2nd Laser Show 3rd Lord Neidin

MONTATHAM seldom runs badly and, if the switch to all-weather unlocks a bit more improvement in the Showcasing colt, he looks up to exploiting a mark of 89. Third behind a subsequent dual Listed winner, attempting to successfully give her 3lb, at Yarmouth in September, that is the line of form which gives hope he could be well treated. Bear Force One is progressive and absolutely bolted up on his handicap debut at Newbury, so he's noted along with Ouzo and Pinnata.
Prediction : 1st Montatham 2nd Bear Force One 3rd Ouzo

KWELA has won twice at this track in recent months and a 3lb rise for the most recent of those victories, which came over this trip, may not be enough to stop her from taking this contest as well. Mendoza is an obvious threat having won over track and trip late last month, while Gold At Midnight and One Cool Daddy are others to consider.
Prediction : 1st Kwela 2nd Mendoza 3rd Gold At Midnight

All Yours had plenty in hand when winning a 0-85 over 1m4f here last month and is expected to give a good account now stepping up in grade, though preference is for C&D winner THE PINTO KID, who won cosily over 1m6f at Chelmsford in September and shouldn't have any issues cutting back in trip. Kitaabaat is progressing nicely, while Just The Man makes plenty of appeal on his C&D win 19 days ago and commands the utmost respected in receipt of a weight-for-age allowance.
Prediction : 1st The Pinto Kid 2nd Just The Man 3rd All Yours

PIANISSIMO built on some useful appearances to get off the mark at Chelmsford on his final outing for John Gosden and could thrive trying two miles for the first time, now entering the handicap ranks for his new handler Anthony Carson. Course-and-distance winner Rydan can go well following a break and three of his six victories have come on an all-weather surface, while Past Master has performed well here in the past and could be suited by the step up in trip on this occasion.
Prediction : 1st Pianissimo 2nd Rydan 3rd Past Master

ICE CAVE opened his account over 7f here following a 162-day break last month and the Shamardal colt could have more to come now entering the handicap ranks following that impressive four-length victory. Course-and-distance winner Helvetian won on his first outing for Kevin Frost at Wolverhampton last time and is interesting off just a 4lb higher mark with a tongue-tie now applied. Tony Carroll's Brighton winner Red Alert has to be respected, with Stuart Williams' Hart Stopper and Restless Rose others worth keeping an eye on.
Prediction : 1st Ice Cave 2nd Helvetian 3rd Red Alert
