UK Horse Racing Tips: Kelso

Despite having to shoulder a penalty for last month's Sedgefield triumph, this represents another fine opportunity for CHEMISTRY. The former Aidan O'Brien-trained gelding achieved a peak rating of 106 on the Flat and still competed off a mark of 90 when contesting the Chester Cup recently. He's open to any amount of progress in this sphere and should have too much for the likes of Luna Grace and Osco Flyer.
Prediction : 1st Chemistry 2nd Luna Grace 3rd Osco Flyer

Cases can be made for each of these in what is an open event despite the lack of numbers, but the vote goes to THE KEMBLE BREWERY. The son of Blue Bresil returned with a creditable second at Chepstow before bolting up over that same C&D last month, and a 9lb rise might be lenient given his unexposed profile. Impero won this off 11lb lower 12 months ago but is respected, while Wise Eagle can edge out Kihavah for third.
Prediction : 1st The Kemble Brewery 2nd Impero 3rd Wise Eagle

STYLISH RECRUIT won in game fashion at Hexham and had an excuse when attempting to follow up, after Patrick Wadge's saddle slipped rounding the home turn. He might not have been victorious that day but dropping in trip should suit the gelding and he remains competitively handicapped. Helsgetaway (third) and Vanilla Dancer (fourth) both shaped encouragingly over C&D recently and are of interest, as is Georgie's Malt, who wasn't much further back in sixth.
Prediction : 1st Stylish Recruit 2nd Helsgetaway 3rd Vanilla Dancer

DUNKERQUE kept on well to score over timber at Newcastle and proved that was no fluke when readily scoring at Southwell on his chase bow. This in-form grey is very much the one to beat in his present mood and can account for Looking Splendid, who brings solid C&D form to the table and won't go down without a fight. Royal Deeside is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Dunkerque 2nd Looking Splendid 3rd Royal Deeside

KILLYBEGS JET LADY remains a maiden under Rules but is lightly raced over fences and can be afforded one more chance on the strength of her improved Hexham second behind an impressive winner three weeks ago. Defying Gravity boasts a similar profile and performed well for second on his chase bow at Perth. Play By The Rules is also noteworthy.
Prediction : 1st Killybegs Jet Lady 2nd Defying Gravity 3rd Play By The Rules

DOUBLE DIGITS took a step forward when finishing second at Hexham earlier in the month and that form has been boosted by the third winning since. With that in mind, the eight-year-old makes plenty of appeal off just a 1lb higher figure. Scots Poet appears to be the main threat based on his Sedgefield success two starts ago, while Ip Up completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Double Digits 2nd Scots Poet 3rd Ip Up

A chance can be taken with BOY AARON, who represents a yard that does well in bumpers and his dam was a winner between the flags. Maximus Oxo won his only point-to-point start in March 2025 and enters the reckoning on his Rules debut, while any market support for You Be Lucky Jean or Koa Beau would have to be noted.
Prediction : 1st Boy Aaron 2nd Maximus Oxo 3rd You Be Lucky Jean
