UK Horse Racing Tips: Kempton

Balavad is the only one in the field with a previous run to his name and he'll need to have come on significantly for that outing in order to figure. NIGHT MOMENT has bagged a low draw, represents a stable who can ready a newcomer and looks the most interesting of the debutants, with the presence of Oisin Murphy in the saddle an additional bonus. Mick Channon's Rommel and Scalene, who is related to a juvenile winner, are others to note.
Prediction : 1st Night Moment 2nd Rommel 3rd Scalene

CLAUDIUS SECUNDUS has shaped encouragingly in two outings for James Tate and is expected to show up well off an opening mark of 75 now going handicapping. Pretty In Grey cuts back from a mile after scoring here in October and merits a market check, while Dashing Roger has been raised 4lb for scoring at Lingfield in March but commands respect from a low draw. Business is berthed wide but is the type to improve now switching to handicaps as well.
Prediction : 1st Claudius Secundus 2nd Dashing Roger 3rd Business

BABY STEPS ran well for a long way over 1m at Lingfield last time and is expected to play a leading role, given his front-running style, now dropping back in trip here and having bagged an inside draw. Tintoretto has been raised 4lb for scoring over C&D in March but has viable place claims, as does Soar Above, who has been nudged up 7lb for scoring cosily over 6f here in the spring.
Prediction : 1st Baby Steps 2nd Tintoretto 3rd Soar Above

MAIDEN CASTLE sets a fair form standard after finishing second to a subsequent Listed winner at Chepstow in May last year and, having displayed further promise when fifth at Sandown a few weeks later in a hot novice event, is fancied to take the beating. Crossing The Bar is entitled to appreciate this step up in trip for Sir Michael Stoute, while Quickthorn will be worth noting in handicaps after this following a couple of eye-catching performances so far.
Prediction : 1st Maiden Castle 2nd Crossing The Bar 3rd Quickthorn

Hey Gracie showed next to nothing on debut for Mark Usher but has to be worth a second look now under the care of Ralph Beckett, while Kashi cannot be taken lightly on debut representing the in-form Andrew Balding and Oisin Murphy. Tibbie Dunbar has some experience having finished fourth and fifth in two bumpers, but it might be worth siding with James Fanshawe's newcomer, COUSIN ROSAURA, who is a half-sister to eight winners, two of which came from this stable.
Prediction : 1st Cousin Rosaura 2nd Tibbie Dunbar 3rd Kashi

Crimson King struck at the 17th time of asking over this C&D last time and wouldn't be a surefire candidate to back that success up, while Glendun was in good form over hurdles prior to finishing third in this code a few months ago and was only raised 1lb for those exertions. Slight preference is for FORESEE, who was in magnificent form on artificial surfaces over the winter, going up 20lb after four quick victories, and should appreciate this drop in trip now returning to Polytrack.
Prediction : 1st Foresee 2nd Glendun 3rd Crimson King

FIZZY FEET saves her best performances for this all-weather surface and was in great nick before the break. She has won three of her four starts this year and there could be more to come off just a 3lb higher mark than when she scored readily at Wolverhampton last time. Hollie Doyle knows her well and she's taken to prove too strong for the likes of Burmese Waltz, who debuts for Archie Watson, and Shimmering Dawn.
Prediction : 1st Fizzy Feet 2nd Burmese Waltz 3rd Shimmering Dawn

MAY REMAIN has the benefit of a competitive run under his belt, and a good one at that as he finished a neck second in a similar handicap over 5f here last week. This extra furlong will suit and he can strike off the same mark with top apprentice rider Cieren Fallon claiming 3lb in the saddle. Human Nature finished second at Chelmsford in March and will be popular under the 2000 Guineas-winning rider Oisin Murphy, while Inaam is another to note.
Prediction : 1st May Remain 2nd Human Nature 3rd Inaam

CRITIQUE improved markedly for the fitting of blinkers on his second start in handicap company at Lingfield before the break, and this could be his time to shine. Unexposed over the trip and just 2lb higher in the weights for that neck third at Lingfield now under Oisin Murphy, Ed Walker's charge ticks plenty of boxes and gets a confident vote ahead of Camouflaged, who ran second on his handicap debut at Chelmsford. Anno Lucis is also interesting.
Prediction : 1st Critique 2nd Camouflaged 3rd Anno Lucis
