Hi all,
Today’s selections are from Kempton and Southwell.
Kempton
3:00 – Lump Sum – 6/4 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – Finished a ¾ length 2nd of 5 to Jeriko du Reponet in Grade 2 at Doncaster last month when not ideally suited a race that turned into sprint in the straight. Open to further progress over hurdles and the one to beat on form.
Southwell
4:30 – Valsad – 5/1 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – Has shaped with promise on both starts for his new yard and the previous C&D winner was a short head 2nd of 10 at Newcastle 16 days ago. Nudged up 1lb he should be in the mix once again.
6:35 – Benavente – 11/2 @ Bet365 – A Irish challenger Benavente was a good length 4th of 13 at Newcastle (7f) 20 days ago. The dual all-weather scorer proved he handled the tapeta last time and shaped like a return to a mile would suit.
Cheers
John
