UK Horse Racing Tips: Kempton

Runner-up on both outings since joining the Dan Skelton stable, this looks like as good an opportunity as any for IORENS to get off the mark. Tristan Durrell taking off a handy 3lb is another plus and she gets the vote ahead of Sashenka, who has been doing well in this sphere on her last couple of starts. Progressive is also a player based on the pick of her form.
Prediction : 1st Iorens 2nd Sashenka 3rd Progressive

LOVE ACTUALLY impressed when scoring on her chase debut at Taunton last December and a 4lb rise for that success may not be enough to stop her going in again. Smoking Pigeon arrives with similar claims on the back of an authoritative success at Huntingdon last month, while Pass Me By is a proven stayer who is capable of improvement over fences.
Prediction : 1st Love Actually 2nd Smoking Pigeon 3rd Pass Me By

Trainer Harry Derham has made a fine start to his career and GAME WINNER sets the standard following a highly encouraging runner-up effort on his debut at Exeter. The form of that race has been franked by the fifth since and the son of Diamond Boy should have too much for Piper Tom, who didn't show much on his debut for new connections at Huntingdon, as well as All A Struggle.
Prediction : 1st Game Winner 2nd Piper Tom 3rd All A Struggle

DORKING LAD caught the eye when bolting up on his most recent run over an extended 2m4f at this track last November and would be dangerous to dismiss stepping up in trip. He has gone up 9lb for that success, but talented claimer Caoilin Quinn negates most of that rise with his 5lb claim, so the son of Sholokhov must command respect once more. Mumbo Jumbo is feared most for a reputable stable, while Dog Of War is another not to dismiss.
Prediction : 1st Dorking Lad 2nd Mumbo Jumbo 3rd Dog Of War

NO NO TANGO made a pleasing handicap debut when securing a good second over an extended 2m3f at Huntingdon last month and a first-time tongue-tie could bring about further improvement. Sami Bear can give the selection plenty to think about having unseated his rider at the last whilst leading over 2m4f at Wincanton last Thursday. Battle March disappointed on his latest showing, also at Wincanton, but is fancied to improve off 5lb lower.
Prediction : 1st No No Tango 2nd Sami Bear 3rd Battle March

JAY JAY REILLY struck the woodwork at Huntingdon last month on what was just his second start over fences and, if first-time cheekpieces can eke out further improvement, he looks likely to go one better. Name In Lights receives weight all round and must be of interest ahead of his chase debut, while Any News, who sports a tongue-tie for the first time, can't be ruled out either.
Prediction : 1st Jay Jay Reilly 2nd Name In Lights 3rd Any News

Dan Skelton is no stranger to success in these contests and he could gain another victory in the form of IRLANDAIS. The five-year-old is a half-brother to Grade 1 placed Grand Jury, who won a bumper on his debut, and he would appear to hold every chance of emulating that result here. Classic King finished a good third on his racecourse bow at Hereford and he looks set to go close with improvement likely, while market support would make Il Va De Soi of interest on his Rules debut.
Prediction : 1st Irlandais 2nd Classic King 3rd Il Va De Soi
