There were 38 Races on Monday 4th November 2024 across 5 meetings. There was 8 races at Kempton, 7 races at Plumpton, 6 races at Hereford, 9 races at Wolverhampton, 8 races at Southwell, no doubt Tomform helped you find a winner.

A chance is taken on MONOPOLISE, who is 11lb lower than when he won over C&D as a juvenile. With a tongue-tie added and regular partner Billy Loughnane booked, the clues gel well enough to expect another bold showing. Fellow course winner Solanna is feared most, while Johnjay's recent turf form is encouraging enough for him to also be a player.

MONOPOLISE showed more encouraging signs last time and he's fallen to a very appealing mark so, with a tongue tie on, he makes the most appeal down in grade. Johnjay has also looked back in form lately and he's considered a danger along with Solanna.

Few can be trusted. SOLANNA had at least been running well until an excusable failure last time and he has form around here.
Class & Speed Card

SANTORINI STAR should be a good deal wiser after last month's second to a promising type when introduced at Southwell and has a golden opportunity to get off the mark at the second time of asking. Godolphin home-bred Dubai Beach showed some promise on her sole start as a juvenile and warrants close inspection, despite this being a belated seasonal debut. At present, Thankyou Baroness appeals more than So Lah De Dah based on what they have shown so far.

SANTORINI STAR is the clear pick on her debut form at Southwell 18 days ago and this looks a good opportunity. Dubai Beach was too green to do herself justice on debut a year ago, and can be expected to do a lot better, but she has plenty to find with the selection

Thankyou Baroness looked promising at Chelmsford but SANTORINI STAR should be hard to beat in this company.
Class & Speed Card

A small but interesting field sees Barrabool make her debut for Harry Derham after a second in a Southwell bumper, but she will need to find improvement to bother BLUE LAS. Neil Mulholland's six-year-old has taken two of her three bumpers, at Southwell and Uttoxeter, and is bred to be even better over hurdles. If she is ready to go after six months off, she should prove hard to beat. Metkayina also makes the shortlist and is one to watch for future reference.

This should rest between bumper-winners METKAYINA and Blue Las with marginal preference for the former given there's slightly more substance to her form in that sphere.

Blue Las can win over hurdles soon but Aintree Grade 2 bumper fourth METKAYINA could be a very tough nut to crack today.
Class & Speed Card

Charlie Appleby is fielding some interesting juveniles as the all-weather season kicks in and BEDOUIN PRINCE strikes as another name to conjure with for a light autumn campaign. Out of 1000 Guineas runner-up Lucida, there is lots to like about the breeding and this could be another well-judged piece of placement by the Newmarket handler. Dissident and Family Knight appeal most from those with experience, while Aurel and Pivotal Affair are other noteworthy debutants to consider.

Those with experience don't set the bar that high so the suggestion is Godolphin debutant BEDOUIN PRINCE, with confidence in his chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Aurel is another newcomer who looks the part on paper, while his stablemate Dissident could leave his Newbury debut run behind. The Richard Hughes-trained Family Knight also makes the shortlist after quite an encouraging debut effort over C&D last month.

Bedouin Prince is a newcomer of some interest but DISSIDENT can leave his Newbury debut run well behind him.
Class & Speed Card

Joe Tizzard won this last year and is back for more with I Shut That D'or, but he was beaten a long way over hurdles at Exeter and is yet to get his head in front over fences. THEONLYWAYISWESSEX has won in this sphere at Stratford and was a solid third at Southwell last time out, and if he remains at that level, he may be the one to beat. One Last Glance impressed over timber at Stratford and would also be of interest if he transfers that to the larger obstacles.

KALKAS returns on a fair mark and hails from a yard amongst the winners. He could be the answer in a tricky-looking contest. Theonlywayiswessex and Ballinoulart are feared most.

This might go to THEONLYWAYISWESSEX, who was a very convincing 2m1f chase winner in the spring and is unexposed over this trip.
Class & Speed Card

DON RAFAEL filled the runner-up spot over an extended 2m in a stronger event than this at Stratford in September and goes off a 1lb higher mark. Martin Keighley's four-year-old will appreciate this drop in grade and might be able to regain the winning thread. Jeudidee (third) had Jack The Savage (fourth) behind when he made the frame at Southwell last month and can confirm that form to pose the main threat. Fourtowns completes the shortlist.

In an open race it could be worth chancing JACK THE SAVAGE, who has been given a chance by the handicapper and looks ready for this stiffer test of stamina. Don Rafael and Fourtowns rate the principal dangers.

An open race. FOURTOWNS has yet to win but there's a race in him off this mark and he edges preference ahead of Don Rafael.
Class & Speed Card

BREWING has been set a couple of stiff tasks on soft ground since recording his fifth win on the all-weather back in January. The five-year-old won a shade cosily over course and distance on that occasion and can bounce back to form on his favoured surface. The front-running Cuban Tiger will likely set a decent pace at the head of affairs and is handicapped to go close, while the progressive Heathcliff can also feature once again and is preferred to Rhoscolyn.

A good-quality handicap with lots to consider. MUMS TIPPLE failed to fire on turf this season but his AW record is a much more compelling one and the assessor has given him a chance back on his favoured surface. Brewing is another interesting proposition back on an artificial surface, while 3-y-o Heathcliff may not yet have finished improving.

Perhaps BREWING, whose recent turf runs aren't the best guide to his ability, can make it 6-8 on AW. Dangers abound in a red-hot race.
Class & Speed Card

Prince Imperial arrives with two wins already this season, at Fontwell and Market Rasen, but he has to give plenty of weight to JUST LUCKY SIVOLA, which may prove a huge ask. Paul Nicholls' gelding won his first bumper before disappointing at Huntingdon, but is bred to be far better over obstacles and hopefully has an exciting future in front of him. Batsman took a point-to-point in January and may be the one to follow them home.

PRINCE IMPERIAL has a double penalty to shoulder but he can call upon plenty of experience over obstacles and that may prove to be decisive. Just Lucky Sivola is in the right hands now hurdling and he should be a factor.

By far the most obvious answer is PRINCE IMPERIAL, who is 2-3 over hurdles since joining Olly Murphy and sets a fairly useful standard.
Class & Speed Card

KILBARRY HILL has made the top three on each of his five starts under Rules to date and he sets the standard with a rating of 110 in this contest. The Olly Murphy-trained six-year-old looks to have been found an ideal opportunity and can get off the mark. Miss Kassiopi outran her long odds to finish third at Warwick on her latest outing and should go well, while Sweet Serene can fight it out for the minor honours.

KILBARRY HILL was beaten favourite on a couple of occasions last season but there'll be no excuses for him here. Miss Kassiopi might be the one to follow him home unless the betting vibes are strong surrounding Alan King's Tikiti Dino.

This is very weak and a gilt-edged opportunity for KILBARRY HILL whose peak form sets the standard by a clear margin.
Class & Speed Card

English Spirit won this 12 months ago and is back after a victory here over slightly further last month. That clearly makes him a player once more but if VISIBILITY can get away on level terms, he may have the edge. A tardy start didn't stop him last time as he got up late on at this venue, although he cannot afford the same mistake over this shorter trip. Yeoman, who was just a head behind him on that occasion, and Calanthe also enter calculations.

ENGLISH SPIRIT registered his fifth victory at this course last month and remains feasibly treated on old form. He gets the nod in an open-looking contest. Yeoman and Style of Life head the list of dangers.

This is competitive but the vote goes to ENGLISH SPIRIT, who won a division of this race last year and also scored here ten days ago.
Class & Speed Card

MILITARY ACADEMY represents last year's winning yard and has plenty of scope for further improvement. The son of Fastnet Rock debuts on the all-weather after finishing runner-up in a Listed contest on soft ground at Newmarket and is taken to confirm latest running with Aimeric (third). The latter should be on the premises once again, while Golden One is not without a chance on these terms and makes more appeal than Penzance.

PENZANCE improved at a rate of knots on the AW for these connections and the return to this surface may just prove the catalyst for further success. Military Academy is quickly making up for lost time and is the one in the line-up with the potential to rate much higher. Aimeric is established at this level so commands respect, too.

Aimeric is respected but he has ground to make up on MILITARY ACADEMY on their Newmarket run and the latter is still improving.
Class & Speed Card

SACRE COEUR occupied the runner-up berth at Ludlow last month and she competes off the same rating. That is the best recent form on offer in this contest and Dan Skelton's mare could prove tough to beat. Scamallach Liath finished midfield as favourite in a Grade 3 event over the smaller obstacles at Sandown in February and has to be considered on his chase debut, while I See You Well is another to consider.

SCAMALLACH LIATH could finish only mid-field when sent off favourite for a Grade 3 Sandown handicap on the final start of a light campaign last season, but he now makes his chase debut in much calmer waters and this Irish point winner appeals as the type to make his mark over fences. Sacre Coeur is the clear main danger ahead of veteran course regular I See You Well.

The one with most potential is chase debutant SCAMALLACH LIATH, who ran well on all three hurdling starts for Harry Derham last season.
Class & Speed Card

Current Mood struck by the smallest of margins at Ludlow last month and it would be no surprise to see her go close again off only 4lb higher. However, GETBAZOUTOFHERE was victorious over track and trip in May and, considering the manner of that victory, she is fancied to follow up. Of the other two, Honey I'm Good might be the pick, even though she has had a run in every month of 2024 so far.

CURRENT MOOD was perhaps idling after looking firmly in control when winning by a narrow margin at Ludlow last time out and she remains with plenty of handicapping scope on old form, so she gets the nod over Getbazoutofhere. Honey I'm Good should also be involved.

Evan Williams has two live chances but CURRENT MOOD (nap) was good value for her narrow success at Ludlow and can follow up.
Class & Speed Card

A small field may play into the hands of the Roger Varian-trained TAWAJJAH, who was second at Windsor when beaten a nose and then at Southwell when left with a bit too much to do. This may be the best chance yet for the Frankel colt to win a race, with the once-raced Plage De Havre an interesting alternative. Sixth but not beaten far at Yarmouth in September 2023 and not seen since, he may get the better of Maguire in a fight for second spot.

TAWAJJAH has progressed with each start thus far and looks to have been found an excellent opportunity to get off the mark. Plage de Havre appears to be the only conceivable danger.

This looks a golden opportunity for TAWAJJAH, who sets a clear standard on his second behind a smart prospect at Southwell last month.
Class & Speed Card

GOD OF FIRE has shown progressive form this year and landed a hat-trick, including a course and distance success, during the summer. The four-year-old has switched trainers since going close at Windsor when last in action but may not have finished winning yet. Siempre Arturo is feared having beaten Ludo's Landing (fourth) when scoring here last month. That form looks rock-solid given the latter had the measure of both Sonnerie Power (second) and True Courage (third) when winning at the track in September.

THE GLEN ROVERS is taking on battle-hardened handicappers but he's a lightly-raced 5-y-o who is on the up and at the foot of the weights, so he may be the answer to this series final. Oslo caught the eye in September so needs considering back on the level, with Magico also of interest given he defends an unbeaten Kempton record.

This can go to SIEMPRE ARTURO (nap) who may yet prove better than his mark. He took his strike-rate to 6-11 when winning last month.
Class & Speed Card

ONEMOREFORTHEROAD has made the frame on each of his last two outings at this level and he now sports a first-time visor. Neil King's nine-year-old remains on a workable mark and should have no issues with the step back up in trip to get his head back in front. Irish Hill is a lot better than he showed when pulled up at Chepstow on his return and has to be considered. Yellow Star is another to note.

YELLOW STAR could prove suited by this increased test of stamina and is preferred to Irish Hill, who ran a stinker in the Silver Trophy but is well treated if a change of headgear and a return to calmer waters sparks a revival. Onemorefortheroad has run well back hurdling this autumn and should also feature.

Placed in a very competitive 2m handicap at the end of last season, YELLOW STAR (nap) gets the vote over a new trip here.
Class & Speed Card

A winner at Wincanton in April and runner-up on both starts since, including at Exeter last month, MIRABAD sets a decent standard on form and he can strike under a 7lb penalty for in-form connections. That is likely to be at the main expense of Bold Recruit, who has run with promise when second in a couple of bumpers but must step up on that. A capable sort on the level, Millions Memories cannot be ruled out on his jumping debut.

This will likely to develop into a straight fight between MIRABAD and Bold Recruit, with preference for the former who has already shown he can do it over hurdles and should be sharper for last month's comeback run at Exeter.

Mirabad has the form but comes with an element of risk so a chance is taken on dual bumper runner-up BOLD RECRUIT.
Class & Speed Card

PUGLIA didn't have the best of luck over C&D when denied a clear run after trying to come from off the pace, but she won her previous start at Windsor and clearly has the ability needed. Saxon Raider was second here in a maiden last month before struggling back on turf. He could go well off an opening mark of 67, although Maids Head looks the bigger danger off the same rating after a decent display at Leicester in better company.

MAMMA MARIA is on a handy mark and was likely undone by the testing conditions when a beaten favourite at Haydock last time. She gets the nod. Profit Rockit and Maids Head can also make their presence felt.

Preference is for MAMMA MARIA who is well worth another chance to build on earlier promise having fluffed her lines on heavy at Haydock
Class & Speed Card

Meisterzinger has an outstanding record here with three wins and a third from just the four starts, but he has been off since June 2023 and it would be a big ask to expect him to win here. John Berry has his horses in good form and Duchess warrants plenty of respect from her current mark, but TORBELLINO gets the vote. She won easily enough by a couple of lengths over C&D last month and although 5lb higher in the handicap now, she could follow up.

This looks open with FULLFORWARD getting the tentative nod back on his correct mark returned to a more suitable trip. Stablemates Torbellino and Pablo Prince occupied the first 2 spots in a C&D handicap recently and head the opposition, ahead of Starfighter.

Torbellino is respected but it may be worth siding with UPEPO back on Polytrack for the first time since his cosy win in January.
Class & Speed Card

A promising third at Wincanton when keeping on well towards the finish, TWO TO TANGO is likely to build upon that effort and Emma Lavelle's charge is fancied to break his duck. Calshot Spit has strong claims if putting a disappointing performance on the Flat at Bath behind him, while Shared has dropped to mark 3lb lower than his last win and could be suited by stepping back in trip.

It's probably best to overlook CALSHOT SPIT's heavy defeat on the Flat last month, as he simply didn't appear to handle the testing conditions. He was at the top of his game prior to that and, with the ground more suitable back hurdling here, the 4-y-o is taken to deliver. Two To Tango took a step back in the right direction at Wincanton recently and he is second choice ahead of Non Stop and Shared.

One of two to pull well clear of the others when opening his hurdling account at Fontwell two starts ago, CALSHOT SPIT gets the nod.
Class & Speed Card

A consistent mare in Jersey over the summer, PRINCESS T returned to home soil when getting the job done at Wincanton last month and a 4lb rise for that success could prove lenient. Neil Mulholland's nine-year-old gets the vote ahead of comfortable Chepstow winner Love Tree, as well as Bob O Rhino, who wasn't beaten too far in her attempt to supplement a Stratford triumph at Worcester.

IRISH LULLABY still retains plenty of scope to rate higher in this sphere and with her return to Carlisle under her belt, she's fancied to regain the winning thread fitted with a tongue tie. Bob O Rhino and Princess T are solid opponents.

Although both her wins have come on soft ground, LOVE TREE could appreciate these drier conditions on handicap debut.
Class & Speed Card

BLUEBELLS BOY has been in the form of his life over the last two months and a 6lb rise for his most recent comfortable success at Chelmsford may not be enough to prevent him from landing the hat-trick. Similar comments apply to C&D winner Diamond Dreamer, who arrives on the back of a pair of victories at Lingfield, while Zu Run may be suited by dropping back in trip, having shown plenty of pace when scoring over 7f here.

ZU RUN capitalised on a drop in the weights here last month and hasn't been harshly treated by the handicapper for that victory. He may be able to follow up. Bluebells Boy arrives at the top of his game and is much respected, whilst Diamond Dreamer should also go well.

The vote goes to ZU RUN who was back to form when winning over 7f here last time and the return to 6f shouldn't be a problem.
Class & Speed Card

Arctician made all to win here in October over C&D and although upped 3lb for that, he scored in June off a higher mark suggesting he has a chance. Dion Baker continues to run well with a neck second here last month but is yet to win on the all-weather despite 19 attempts, and AL AMEEN is preferred. He has the benefit of the one stall and was only beaten a length off 1lb higher here in September over this trip, which suits him better that the six furlongs he took on last time out.

BELL SHOT has a poor run to bounce back from but he's consistent in the main and the make up of this race looks ideal for him, so he's preferred to the in-form Bigbertiebassett. Arctician is also a player.

Plenty of possibles but the drop into a Class 5 handicap and a change of headgear could see BLUELIGHT BAY exploit his lowly mark.
Class & Speed Card

Now that the penny has dropped for BATWOMEN after a comfortable defeat of Ted's Friend at Fontwell, the Neil Mulholland-trained mare is likely to have plenty more improvement forthcoming and she can follow up off 5lb higher. Second on his first start for the Harry Derham yard at Huntingdon last month, Recoded must enter calculations, along with Highway One O Five, who ran well over C&D in April but hasn't quite performed to that level since.

BATWOMEN left previous efforts behind when seeing off Ted's Friend to make a successful handicap debut at Fontwelll last time and, with more to come, she's worth a chance to go in again. Recoded is an obvious danger and Highway One O Five is of interest in first-time headgear.

After winning with a bit left in the tank at Fontwell last month, BATWOMEN could still be well handicapped after a 5lb rise.
Class & Speed Card

RIVER GOLD showed major improvement on her second start for the James Owen stable and looks capable of following up that relatively comfortable success on her fencing bow at Fakenham. Alex Chadwick's 5lb claim is a big plus and his mount can see off Extraordinary Man and Good Lord, who ended last season well over hurdles and shaped with some promise on his chasing debut at Sedgefield. Others to note include Ben Buie, Famoso and The Big Man.

The vote goes to GOOD LORD, who was much-improved switched to handicaps over hurdles in the second half of last season and there were positives to take from his chase debut at Sedgefield where he understandably looked short of match-fitness following an eight-month absence. A line can be drawn through Mordred's latest effort and he is feared on the strength of his creditable placed efforts prior to that, while Famoso and River Gold are others to consider.

River Gold is feared but perhaps THE BIG MAN can step up on his recent chase debut for which he was quite a market mover.
Class & Speed Card

A winner twice in July here and runner-up on his most recent outing in August, DILLYDINGDILLYDONG gives every impression that he will suited by going up in distance and he gets that opportunity now. A respectable third over this trip at Southwell last time out, The Resdev Way looks to be a key player, along with the consistent Albert Lasker and Peripeteia.

Preference is for ALBERT LASKER, who is on a workable mark and may have kicked on too early when third at Yarmouth last time. Dillydingdillydong and Uther Pendragon may provide the chief threat.

James Owen's DILLYDINGDILLYDONG (nap) continues to thrive and can bag a third success here with the step up in trip a likely positive.
Class & Speed Card

Juicy had shown distinct promise until a disappointing run at Newcastle in September but could well bounce back now he races with a tongue-tie added. Water Of Leith has been consistent of late and should also go well with Amy Waugh back in the saddle. However, preference is for THANKUAPPRECIATE, who is unexposed on the all-weather and, from a handy current rating, looks an ideal type for a race of this nature.

THANKUAPPRECIATE is interesting returned to the all-weather having performed with plenty of credit when third on his sole previous start away from turf at Newcastle back in June 2023. He gets the nod ahead of El Hibri, who will be a big threat if he puts his best foot forward. Howzak is third choice, while cases can also be made for Juicy and Water of Leith in this trappy contest.

Dropped 2lb having not seen out 6f latest, the lightly raced JUICY can make it 2-2 over C&D..
Class & Speed Card

Now that the penny has dropped for KITTY FURNIVAL after a clear-cut success in maiden company at Kempton, the daughter of Zarak is likely to have more to come and a mark of 83 could prove lenient on her handicap debut. Successful over C&D last time out, Speriamo may give her the most to think about, although Lordsbridge Blu was narrowly denied a double when beaten a neck over shorter at Newcastle and warrants attention too.

An interesting handicap. LORDSBRIDGE BLU has got a bit better with each start and is taken to pull out a bit more again now stepping up to 1½m. The thriving Speriamo and low-mileage 3-y-o Kitty Furnival head the dangers in a contest where a decent case can be made for the majority.

This looks highly competitive but LIA ROSE gets the vote ahead of Kitty Furnival, Speriamo and Lordsbridge Blu.
Class & Speed Card

CLOTH OF GOLD looked a promising work in progress when he tried to make all on his recourse debut in a novice stakes event at Redcar last month. Just overhauled in the closing stages, the son of Sea The Moon still created a very favourable impression and, given his dam was a winner on the all-weather, switching to this surface shouldn't be much of an issue. Magic Runner and Beachborough Girl appeal most from the rest with experience, while Port Light is a notable debutant.

This is best left to CLOTH OF GOLD, who was a clear second on his recent debut at Redcar and, unless one of the newcomers Port Light or Orchestral Wave turn out to be pretty useful, he probably won't need to find any improvement in order to go one better here.

A few offered a bit of promise on debut but none came close to matching CLOTH OF GOLD's Redcar level.
Class & Speed Card

Mykonos St John and Port Noir have both being going through a renaissance period and should be capable of holding their own in this company, despite each creeping back up the handicap. KALIKAPOUR is another interesting contender on these terms and, given he was rated 90 as recently as May of last year, the son of Lope De Vega looks thrown in off a figure of just 60 and must be worth chancing.

PORT NOIR arrives at the top of her game and gets the nod to complete a course hat-trick. The return to this trip will suit Cerulean Summer who is second choice ahead of Kalikapour and Mykonos St John, another with a recent course win to his name.

Top of the list is six-time course winner PORT NOIR, who has been resurgent with wins here in her last two starts.
Class & Speed Card

A chance is taken on nursery debutant EVA'S EYES being able to take things to a new level as she runs from a potentially competitive mark and has the assistance of a useful 7lb claimer in the saddle. The betting market should be informative, though, and support for A Fine Claret, Princess Inga or Flaine would need to be taken seriously.

LOLAPALOOZA will have every chance if able to perform to a similar level as when third in a 6f Nottingham maiden during the summer. She may have most to fear from Princess Inga, while Born Too Run and Flaine are others with claims.

Only Lolapalooza and Princess Inga have been placed so far but A FINE CLARET wasn't disgraced last time when hampered.
Class & Speed Card

A 7f winner off 4lb lower at Lingfield three starts back, American Rose needs taking seriously with her recent form creating hope of more to come. However, a chance is taken on C&D winner A PINT OF BEAR, who is better than the face value of his last two starts suggests. Nudged down 2lb after running too keenly here last month, the six-year-old can redeem himself in this potentially weaker event. Bossy Parker and Gilt Edge are others to consider.

AMERICAN ROSE shaped well back on AW here last time and can prove the answer to the first division of this 7f handicap. Galel has fewer convictions than the rest of these and is second choice ahead of Bossy Parker, a dual C&D scorer earlier in the year.

Most of these come with risks attached but AMERICAN ROSE was a good third against a pace bias over C&D last time and she gets the vote.
Class & Speed Card

Maui Breeze finished over three lengths clear of the third when taking the silver medal home over C&D last time and she holds an obvious chance. However, she might be worth taking on with SPENDMORE LANE. Julie Camacho's juvenile shaped with plenty of promise to finish third on her debut over 5f at Newcastle in September and, with normal progression, she could be the one to beat. Any market confidence behind Fancy Dancer would be interesting.

Having shaped with a fair bit of promise when third on debut at Newcastle, SPENDMORE LANE is appealing with this step up to 6f likely to help unlock improvement. Indeed, she may find the required improvement to get the better of Maui Breeze, who pulled clear of the rest when runner-up back from a break here last month. Newcomers Fancy Dancer and Lovesick both need close attention in the betting.

Maui Breeze just about sets the standard but SPENDMORE LANE shaped nicely on debut and may progress past her.
Class & Speed Card

SPLIT ELEVENS won back-to-back races at the end of summer and, having held his form quite well since then, rates a solid option in his bid to repeat the feat with David Probert retaining the ride after guiding him to victory over C&D last month. A 3lb higher mark demands more of him and creates hope for key rivals such as Reputation and Harbour Vision, who have both won off higher ratings.

REPUTATION is 11 now but his latest C&D second suggests he has another win in him. Split Elevens has had an excellent spell since headgear has been removed and is feared most ahead of Harbour Vision and Plumette.

The most striking contender is SPLIT ELEVENS, who has won five of his last eight starts including over C&D last time.
Class & Speed Card

KITAI wasn't disgraced when finishing fourth in a warmer event at York in September and the handicapper might have been kind to drop her 1lb for that performance. Mick Appleby's four-year-old will appreciate this drop in grade and looks well placed to record her fifth career success. Ziggy's Queen finished a close-up third at Wolverhampton last month and should remain competitive off a 1lb lower rating, while Shallow isn't one to write off either.

A chance is taken on HOLY FIRE, who misfired at Kempton when last seen in August but she posted several decent efforts in defeat prior to that and has edged down to an attractive mark. Ziggy's Queen lost little caste in defeat when third at Wolverhampton three weeks ago and she will be a threat if able to back that up here, while Coup de Force and Kitai both make some each-way appeal.

Daytona Lady and Kitai are feared but SHALLOW retains potential after just four starts and she looked promising in the spring.
Class & Speed Card

Sullivan Bay had Sir Joseph Swan (second) half a length behind in this grade at Chelmsford on his latest outing and is expected to confirm that form to have a say. However, it may pay to side with ALEX THE GREAT, who occupied the runner-up berth over 1m6f at Wolverhampton in September and has since switched to the Tony Carroll stable. If he can back that level of performance up, he could prove tough to beat. Anna Of Saxony completes the shortlist.

SULLIVAN BAY landed a gamble on his first outing for this yard at Chelmsford recently and remains well treated, so he's preferred to Payment Plan, who should benefit from the longer trip. Sir Joseph Swan, who was second to the selection last time, is another one worthy of respect.

The suggestion is SULLIVAN BAY, who got his career back on track when scoring for his new stable at Chelmsford last week.
Class & Speed Card

Kodi Red makes a quick reappearance after winning at Chelmsford four days ago, but he carries a 5lb penalty for that success and PRINCE OF BEL LIR makes more appeal. The latter finished clear of the rest when runner-up at Wolverhampton last time and looks set to strike with Kaiya Fraser's claim negating a 3lb rise. Carlton And Co may well launch another challenge from the front having found only one too good at Newcastle, while Formby should be noted on his handicap debut.

PRINCE OF BEL LIR bounced back to form last time having slipped to an appealing mark and, having found only one too good, he's fancied to make amends in what looks quite a competitive race for the grade. Willolarupi and Formby head the dangers.

Formby and Carlton And Co can go well but PRINCE OF BEL LIR (nap) looks ready to strike after a good run at Wolverhampton.
Class & Speed Card

A winner at Wolverhampton in November 2023, MET OFFICE has returned to a winning mark and caught the eye finishing strongly for fourth at Kempton last time. That effort suggests his turn is not far away and John Butler's inmate may edge affairs. Melek Alreeh returns to this venue for the first time since scoring here in March and can have a say in the outcome, while Thrilling Dream drops back in distance with a shout having landed a double at Leicester in July.

MET OFFICE has tumbled in the weights and looked back in form last time, so he's worth taking a chance on. Kinetic could resume progress and looks appealing, with Alrazeen completing the shortlist.

Preference is for the versatile ALRAZEEN, who got back on track with a near miss behind a well-backed rival at Wolverhampton latest.

This is the 16:15 Kempton race from the video above backed at 28/1 earlier in the day.
Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.
There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.
The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool.
