UK Horse Racing Tips: Kempton

A moderate affair that won't take much winning. DRUM BRAE BOY ran better than the bare form in a similar contest at Lingfield four days ago and, with this drop to 7f expected to suit, the three-year-old should take all of the beating. Arlecchino's Star is expected to prove more competitive given the conditions of this race and rates as the chief threat, ahead of Absolute Peach, who may have been freshened up by a short break.
Prediction : 1st Drum Brae Boy 2nd Arlecchinos Star 3rd Absolute Peach

Burena failed to justify favouritism when finishing down the field in a maiden at Wolverhampton last month but is open to improvement now entering handicaps up in trip. Slight preference, however, is for PRINCESS NAOMI, who was last seen finishing third on the turf and she may regain the winning thread now her attentions are switched to the all-weather. Evolicatt needs to prove herself outside of claiming company.
Prediction : 1st Princess Naomi 2nd Burena 3rd Evolicatt

ROOFUL proved no match for an easy winner here 18 days ago, but lost little in defeat given that horse has subsequently recorded two more wins. The drop to 7f should prove no issue for this C&D winner and, off the same mark, the five-year-old should go very close. The wide draw isn't ideal, which may give Dashing Rat a chance as he's shown more since the blinkers were applied. Sense Of Security should remain competitive now up in distance.
Prediction : 1st Rooful 2nd Dashing Rat 3rd Sense Of Security

AZTEC EMPIRE secured an improved second when stepping up in trip for his latest outing at Southwell and he looks more than capable of shedding his maiden tag at the third time of asking. He is a half-brother to Listed/Group 3 winner Azano and must have a good chance. Deadlock is an interesting newcomer to note and he shades the danger vote from the Ralph Beckett-trained Carzola.
Prediction : 1st Aztec Empire 2nd Deadlock 3rd Carzola

Runner-up on his last two starts, first-time cheekpieces could see GOLDEN SPEECH build on his latest effort at Sandown in July. He makes both a return to action and his Polytrack debut and should not be dismissed for powerful connections, while I'm Too Tired posted a respectable fourth at Wolverhampton and can mount a serious challenge. First Sight completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Golden Speech 2nd Im Too Tired 3rd First Sight

The form of DAGMAR RUN's most recent win here has been well franked since and the step up in trip, along with a mark of 77 on his handicap debut, should see him get the job done again. Mister X has far more experience but he will need to step up on his last two wins at Wolverhampton, while Crocodile Roll is surely better than what he showed at Southwell last time out.
Prediction : 1st Dagmar Run 2nd Mister X 3rd Crocodile Roll

EASY EQUATION is one of few in the field who has won at this specialist trip and his most recent effort at Southwell gave the impression that he may be capable of getting back to winning ways. The veteran Master Grey is a key player going back up to 2m with David Probert taking over in the saddle, while Bass Strait has performed creditably since joining the Sheena West stable and there could be more to come.
Prediction : 1st Easy Equation 2nd Bass Strait 3rd Master Grey
