UK Horse Racing Tips: Kempton

Judged on his latest second at Wolverhampton, APACHE GREEN could be poised to strike. The four-year-old makes plenty of appeal off an unaltered mark and compensation could be on the cards. Super Hit also arrives on the back of a runner-up effort and is likely to be at the forefront of the market, while it is too soon to be writing off Equion.
Prediction : 1st Apache Green 2nd Super Hit 3rd Equion

Dual C&D winner Smasher should enjoy a return to this venue and he wasn't disgraced when fourth at Chelmsford. However, it's difficult to look beyond the hat-trick seeking MAGNA, who appeared to idle in the closing stages at Southwell a couple of weeks ago. The four-year-old may have enough in hand to defy a 4lb rise and is likely to prove popular with Oisin Murphy in the plate. Respectable Jack is the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Magna 2nd Smasher 3rd Respectable Jack

Having posted an encouraging fourth-placed debut over 1m at Dundalk last month, MISTY COVE could be set to open her account. The daughter of Inns Of Court looks a potential improver stepping up in distance and her experience could prove decisive. Galistra fetched 100,000gns as a yearling and is a potential fly in the ointment, along with fellow debutant Distorted Truth, in a race where the market may speak volumes.
Prediction : 1st Misty Cove 2nd Galistra 3rd Distorted Truth

Siouxfonic, a bumper winner at Sedgefield in September, landed a maiden at Wolverhampton last month. He is progressive and may cope with a penalty in this modest-looking company. However, CALIBAN was only a neck behind in second in that race and the son of Sea The Moon, who is 5lb better off, can turn things around with Oisin Murphy taking over in the saddle. Imperial Decision and Abando complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Caliban 2nd Siouxfonic 3rd Imperial Jade

SPACE BEAR can be keen but she has shown more promise in handicaps and a berth in stall two can see her make a big impact here. Up The Agenda needs a strong pace and can be a big danger to the selection if he gets a smoother run than he got at Lingfield last time. Mighty Vega has form that ties in with the latter and is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Space Bear 2nd Up The Agenda 3rd Mighty Vega

YOUR LOVE has scope to go further in handicaps and looks worth another chance after a near miss when second to a consistent type at Southwell just after Christmas. A 1lb nudge up the ratings looks fair and, given she handled the surface well on her only previous start on Polytrack, there is plenty to like. Recent Lingfield winner Handle With Care is feared the most with first-time cheekpieces a potential source of improvement. Court Drive is another option.
Prediction : 1st Your Love 2nd Handle With Care 3rd Court Drive

Several have chances and support in the betting for the likes of I'm Workin On It, Lerwick and Neyva's Angel would have solid reasoning and they warrant close inspection. However, slender preference is for KING DAVID, whose only previous success was posted over this C&D from a 2lb higher mark. After signs of a revival of late, the Gay Kelleway-trained five-year-old is a sporting option in a wide-open race.
Prediction : 1st King David 2nd Im Workin On It 3rd Lerwick
