18:20 – Unibet/British Stallion Studs EBF Novice Stakes (GBB/GBBPlus Race)
Race Details: 1m | Class 3 | Going: Standard to slow (watering) (Polytrack) | | flat
This looks a fairly informative novice rather than a deep one, with the market strongly centred on Al Wathba after a pair of runner-up efforts and a lofty 94 rating. He sets the standard on what we know and, for all that he’s had his chances twice, this doesn’t look the deepest contest for him to finally get off the mark. Sommood is the obvious alternative after making the frame on debut and is the one most likely to make the favourite work. The rest are interesting rather than convincing, with several well-bred newcomers from powerful yards including Pure Concept and Cites. Over this mile on Kempton’s Polytrack, experience and professionalism can count for plenty, and that may be what decides it.
Top Selections
1. Al Wathba – 8/13 with William Hill
Jockey: William Buick | Trainer: Charlie Appleby | Form: 22 | Rating: 94 | Topspeed:
There isn’t much mystery about him now, but sometimes the obvious answer is still the right one. Al Wathba has finished second on both starts, and that 94 rating gives him a clear edge on the figures in this field. Charlie Appleby and William Buick are hardly a combination to ignore in a race like this, and stepping into a Kempton novice over a mile looks a perfectly sensible move. At around 8/13 he’s no giveaway, especially for a horse who has already been turned over twice, but he brings the strongest substance and is simply hard to oppose if reproducing his previous level. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Sommood – 5/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Harry Davies | Trainer: Simon & Ed Crisford | Form: 2 | Rating: 80 | Topspeed:
Sommood makes more each-way appeal than anything else against the favourite. He shaped with promise when second on debut, and while an 80 rating leaves him with ground to make up on Al Wathba, that was only the starting point. The Crisford team do well with this type, and Harry Davies is more than capable of getting a youngster into a smooth rhythm around here. In a race where most of the opposition are unraced and therefore harder to trust, Sommood has already shown he can handle race conditions and see out this sort of trip. At 5/2 he’s the solid alternative and the sensible each-way punt.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Keep it straightforward: Al Wathba is the win play because he has the standout form and the clear ratings edge. For those wanting a bit more insurance, Sommood is the each-way option in an eight-runner field with three places on offer. The main dangers are the unexposed newcomers, especially Pure Concept and Cites, but they need to be useful first time out to lower the colours of the proven pair.

18:51 – Unibet Supporting Safer Gambling Novice Stakes (GBB Race)
Race Details: 7f | Class 4 | Going: Standard to slow (watering) (Polytrack) | | flat
This doesn’t look the deepest novice you’ll see at Kempton and, on paper, it revolves around two with a bit of substance. Kaindy brings the standout rating and the strongest recent form after shaping well into third on his return, while Sea Brave has the profile of the obvious danger after finishing second on his sole start. Behind them, the rest have a fair bit to prove. Big Snoopy, Palliser and Talking Bear are the sort who could improve for experience, but they need to find chunks of progress, while Mr G Force and Pedros Dream look up against it on what they’ve shown. In truth, this is a race where class and latent upside should decide matters rather than any great tactical mystery.
Top Selections
1. Kaindy – 2/5 with Betfair
Jockey: Ray Dawson | Trainer: Roger Varian | Form: 72-3 | Rating: 94 | Topspeed: 87
Kaindy is hard to oppose in this line-up. A mark of 94 stands out a mile in a race where most of these have either achieved very little or are still learning on the job, and his return to finish third after a break suggests he retains ability and should come on again. Roger Varian’s three-year-olds often take a step forward with racing, and the fact he has already posted a Topspeed of 87 tells you he’s operating at a level these rivals may simply not reach. At 2/5 he is no gift to the world, but he looks the most likely winner by some distance. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Sea Brave – 5/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Finley Marsh | Trainer: Richard Hughes | Form: 2- | Rating: 82 | Topspeed: 56
If there is one to make Kaindy work, it is Sea Brave. He showed enough when runner-up on his only start to suggest he’s no ordinary second-string type, and the Hughes yard is well capable of bringing one forward from two to three. There is a long absence to forgive, but in a race lacking depth that is easier to stomach, especially with an opening rating of 82 giving him a clear edge over the rest of the supporting cast. The 5/2 on offer makes more appeal than taking cramped odds about the favourite, and he looks the sensible each-way punt with only a small field to worry about. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Keep it simple. Kaindy is the solid win play and looks to have the class edge to justify favouritism. For an each-way option, Sea Brave is the only one who makes serious appeal at the prices, with enough promise in the book to hit the frame at the very least. Of the rest, Talking Bear is the unexposed one to note if the market speaks.

19:21 – Try Unibet’s New Smartview Racecards Fillies’ Handicap
Race Details: 7f | Class 4 | Going: Standard to slow (watering) (Polytrack) | | flat
This looks a properly competitive fillies’ handicap rather than a race full of exposed regulars, with the 3yos likely to hold the strongest hand. Merry arrives off the back of a win and still looks on the upgrade, while Shushu and Afraj are lightly raced enough to have more to offer in this grade. Ghisa and Ribenska bring solid recent placed form and should make this a fair test, especially if the pace is honest over this sharp 7f. At the other end, Paris Babe and Sahana need to show much more than they have lately. It is not an impossible puzzle, but it is the sort of race where a progressive profile matters more than raw ratings, and that points me firmly towards the younger fillies.
Top Selections
1. Merry – 7/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Daniel Muscutt | Trainer: James Horton | Form: 3-4521 | Rating: 92 | Topspeed: 68
Merry is the obvious starting point after getting her head in front last time and, crucially, doing it in a way that suggested there is still a bit left in the locker. Her form figures this season have been steadily building towards that success, and a mark of 92 does not look beyond her at all for a yard that places them well. Daniel Muscutt is a positive booking around Kempton and this filly has the profile of one who can keep progressing through handicaps before the assessor really nails her. At 7/2, she is not a giveaway, but she is the one with the cleanest recent case and the strongest win credentials. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Ribenska – 8/1 with Betfair
Jockey: Callum Shepherd | Trainer: Charlie Fellowes | Form: 77-293 | Rating: 91 | Topspeed: 83
Ribenska makes plenty of each-way appeal from stall 1, and in a race where several of these are open to a bit of guesswork, her recent efforts at least offer some reassurance. She has shaped well in defeat on her last two starts, finishing second and third, and that consistency counts for a lot in this sort of contest. A mark of 91 looks workable, the draw could help her secure a handy position, and Callum Shepherd is the type to make good use of that. She may lack the upside of one or two of the unexposed 3yos, but available at 8/1 she looks the value play if you want something solid against the market leaders. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Merry is the win play because she brings the best recent trajectory and still looks capable of better. Ribenska is the each-way option at the bigger price, with her reliable recent placed form making her a sensible three-place punt. The main dangers are Shushu, who is lightly raced for Roger Varian, and Afraj, whose profile suggests this mark is very manageable.

19:51 – Try Unibet’s New Improved Acca Boosts Fillies’ Handicap (GBBPlus Race)
Race Details: 1m 3f | Class 4 | Going: Standard to slow (watering) (Polytrack) | | flat
This looks a useful little fillies’ handicap rather than a gimme, with the 3yos dominating the market and probably holding the strongest hand. Bintknight arrives on the back of another win and is clearly progressing, while Ladykirk has been knocking on the door and looks sure to go close again for a yard that does well with this type. Seacole is less exposed than most and could easily have more to come, whereas Gloryous and Aphrodite Spirit bring solid enough older-horse form but may just be vulnerable to younger legs. Tactically, draw and pace could matter around Kempton over this trip, but the race should mainly be decided by which of the improving fillies finds a bit extra off the bridle. Tricky enough, but not impossible to solve.
Top Selections
1. Bintknight – 5/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Lewis Edmunds | Trainer: Harry Charlton | Form: 5121 | Rating: 85 | Topspeed:
Bintknight is the one I want to be with. She has the profile of a progressive 3yo still learning her job, and that latest success suggests the handicapper may not have her measure just yet. An opening mark of 85 is no gift, but it is hardly punitive for a filly who has already won twice from four starts and seems to be thriving. Harry Charlton’s fillies tend to improve with racing, and this step up to 1m3f looks more likely to unlock further progress than find her out. At 5/2 with Bet365, she is no secret, but she still makes plenty of appeal in a race where upside matters. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Seacole – 15/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Rossa Ryan | Trainer: Ralph Beckett | Form: 242 | Rating: 83 | Topspeed:
Seacole looks the value each-way play in a race where the obvious pair are towards the head of the market. She has only had three starts, shaped with promise more than once, and her latest second suggested she is starting to put things together. A mark of 83 looks workable for a Ralph Beckett filly with scope, and the booking of Rossa Ryan around Kempton is an obvious plus. There is a fair chance this trip will suit her well, and she does not need huge improvement to get into the first three. Available at 15/2 with Bet365, she makes plenty of sense as the each-way punt. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Bintknight is the straight win bet because she has the strongest progressive profile in the field and still looks ahead of her mark. Seacole is the each-way alternative at a fairer price, especially with three places on offer in an eight-runner race. Ladykirk is the obvious danger after another solid second, while Gloryous is respected if the younger fillies fail to improve again.

20:21 – Unibet 3 Uniboosts A Day Handicap (London Sprint Series Qualifier)
Race Details: 6f | Class 4 | Going: Standard to slow (watering) (Polytrack) | | flat
This is a proper three-year-old sprint handicap rather than a penalty kick, with several arriving in form and a few lurking on dangerous marks. Arry Up and Aigeas both come here off wins and make obvious appeal, while Wezzeer is the one to forgive after disappointing last time for a yard that does well with this type. Caviar Cowboy keeps running his race in slightly stronger company and Kolkata Knight is impossible to ignore on raw figures, especially with that standout Topspeed mark. The non-runner coming out trims the field a touch, but it still looks competitive enough for the four-place each-way terms to matter. In truth, this is a tricky puzzle rather than a strong race, and tactical positioning over Kempton’s 6f could decide plenty.
Top Selections
1. Arry Up – 10/3 with Bet365
Jockey: Lewis Edmunds | Trainer: Rod Millman | Form: -11041 | Rating: 94 | Topspeed: 76
He makes plenty of appeal after getting back on track with that latest win, and the overall profile is of a progressive sprinter who is still learning his job. The form figures this season are solid, he’s already shown he can cope with a battle, and stall 3 should give Lewis Edmunds options if they go hard early. Rod Millman knows the time of day with sprinters and this mark doesn’t look beyond him yet. At 10/3 he is hardly missed, but there are fewer holes in his profile than most and he looks the percentage call in a race full of ifs and buts. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Kolkata Knight – 11/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Pierre-Louis Jamin | Trainer: Tom Dascombe | Form: 208405 | Rating: 99 | Topspeed: 97
He is the interesting each-way angle because the bare form only tells part of the story. Kolkata Knight has been operating off a lofty mark, but that 97 Topspeed figure leaps off the page in this company and suggests he has the engine to be very competitive if things fall right. He was not beaten far when fifth last time and this drop into a race of this nature gives him a fighting chance despite having to defy top-rated status. Drawn 9, he may need a bit of luck, but 11/1 feels fair compensation for a horse with stronger raw speed credentials than most of these. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Arry Up is the win play because he arrives with the right profile, current form and a workable draw. For an each-way punt, Kolkata Knight looks overpriced given his Topspeed edge and the four places on offer. Aigeas is the obvious danger after scoring last time, while Wezzeer is one to fear most if Roger Varian’s colt bounces back from a rare flat effort.

20:51 – Unibet More Extra Place Races Handicap
Race Details: 1m 3f | Class 5 | Going: Standard to slow (watering) (Polytrack) | | flat
This is a typically competitive late-evening Kempton handicap for 3yos, with a few lightly raced types still open to improvement and that makes it more interesting than the grade suggests. Traveling Man arrives on the back of a win and is the obvious one to beat off 84, but he’s short enough in a 12-runner race where several others have solid claims. Hot Silk has been knocking on the door and looks tailor-made for this sort of contest, while Evening Fades also comes here in good order after a near miss. Madjid is another last-time-out winner with momentum, and Lord Mayor has the profile of one who could easily outrun his price. Tricky rather than impossible, but there should be value away from the favourite.
Top Selections
1. Hot Silk – 7/2 with Betfair
Jockey: Harry Vigors | Trainer: James Fanshawe | Form: -44432 | Rating: 82 | Topspeed: 55
Hot Silk has the look of a filly who is ready to cash in now. She’s been admirably consistent without getting her head in front, but that latest second suggested this trip and handicap level are absolutely within range. An opening mark in the low 80s looks workable rather than harsh, and Fanshawe’s runners in these middle-distance all-weather handicaps are usually placed to win one sooner rather than later. The market has cottoned on, but 7/2 still feels fair in a race where the favourite has less margin for error than the betting implies. She holds strong claims if getting a decent pace to aim at.
Bet: WIN
2. Lord Mayor – 11/1 with William Hill
Jockey: P J McDonald | Trainer: Andrew Balding | Form: 093-33 | Rating: 77 | Topspeed: 69
Lord Mayor is the each-way play because he’s shaping like one who is about to get seriously involved from this sort of mark. His two runs this season have both ended in thirds, and there was enough encouragement in those efforts to think 1m3f around Kempton can suit nicely. The inside draw is no bad thing if McDonald can hold a position, and his Topspeed figure is one of the better numbers in the field for a horse sitting at a double-figure price. Balding also runs Relentless Hero, but this one makes more appeal at 11/1 as the value option with four places on offer.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Hot Silk is the win bet, as she brings the most convincing blend of recent form and a still-manageable mark. For an each-way punt, Lord Mayor makes plenty of sense at the prices given his solid recent efforts and useful draw. Traveling Man is the obvious danger after winning last time, while Evening Fades and Madjid also have enough upside to feature prominently.
