UK Horse Racing Tips: Kempton

Extended Order saw his race out well to score at Brighton on his introduction so should appreciate the extra furlong. Abrahamsen will find this tougher than the Leicester seller he contested first time out, although he could do no more than win. Duke of Burgundy's debut third offered plenty of encouragement, but the eye is drawn to THE MONKEY KING. The son of Time Test is related to a host of smart performers, including the classy Fox Legacy and Queen Mary winner Ceiling Kitty, so appeals as a very interesting newcomer.
Prediction : 1st The Monkey King 2nd Duke of Burgundy 3rd Extended Order

With a debut third here and a Wolverhampton triumph sandwiching a less encouraging Newmarket effort, it is safe to assume that DUIDIN is happiest on an artificial surface. He has to concede weight all round thanks to that recent breakthrough success but creditable opposition appears thin on the ground, at least from those with previous experience. Quest For Glory is out of a half-sister to a Listed-winning juvenile over this trip, and there is a bit to like about the pedigree of fellow newcomer Arlecchino's Moon too.
Prediction : 1st Duidin 2nd Quest For Glory 3rd Arlecchinos Moon

HAMALEEL maintained her good level of form when a half-length second at Lingfield to an in-form filly who has run well in defeat since. Archie Watson's representative had a subsequent winner just behind her, and even the seventh has come out and won, so the form is strong enough for her to get the nod here. Dream Illusion's mark has been left alone, despite a narrow Wetherby defeat, while Tronido has slipped back 1lb after following up a Lingfield victory with a solid Goodwood fourth. Trio and handicap debutant Show Me Gold enter the equation as well.
Prediction : 1st Hamaleel 2nd Dream Illusion 3rd Tronido

TUMISHI represents an in-form yard and made a promising introduction when fourth at Nottingham earlier in the month. The penny dropped in the latter stages and he caught the eye staying on well, so must be respected here with improvement forthcoming. Firehorse and Sovereigns High are a couple of interesting newcomers to keep an eye on, and Primal is expected to better his debut sixth in the same Nottingham event that the selection contested.
Prediction : 1st Tumishi 2nd Firehorse 3rd Sovereigns High

Keep an eye on Revelance making her seasonal return and the market may tell us more as to what is expected. The race-fit SAYTARR edges the vote, though, as his all-weather form is much better than his turf form, although it was a decent race he finished fifth in at Sandown last time and that followed a solid Ascot third. Farasi Lane and Sovereign View are also noted.
Prediction : 1st Saytarr 2nd Revelance 3rd Sovereign View

Course scorer Assail showed a lot more when switched to this track in January and could go well freshened up following a break. Naval Command is another to keep a close eye on, but GOLDEN HORSE makes the most appeal as he's expected to have come on plenty for his seasonal/handicap debut fourth at Yarmouth. It's way too soon to be giving up on last year's Hamilton maiden winner.
Prediction : 1st Golden Horse 2nd Assail 3rd Naval Command

BALGOWAN should take some stopping in the finale. He has been in good nick at Lingfield this year, on the turf and all-weather, and has performed well at this track before too. Connections seem to have found him another winnable opening and George Downing getting back in the saddle is a further positive. He can get the better of Break Point and Nelson Gate.
Prediction : 1st Balgowan 2nd Break Point 3rd Nelson Gate
