4:28 Kempton Tips

Further Measure ran on for 4th by 2.25 lengths last time out at Southwell, 20 days ago. Down 1lb from that and Mike Murphy yard has 50% RTF from 4 runners in last 14 days.

Day Arvalenreeva is a winner at longer distances. Experts agree that her recent fourth-place finish was due to the distance being a bit too short for her. Today, with almost 3,200 meters ahead of her, she should unleash her full endurance potential. Despite a recent setback in Chelmsford, her track record suggests that a return to a longer distance would greatly benefit her.

Moving to David Pipe's yard often reinvigorates horses, and the switch to a stamina-sapping 2 miles on the All Weather appears tailor-made for her pedigree. She has grit, after a 2nd place at a heavy Nottingham, and the trainer has been unusally bullish in public about Cynthia. I think she is value against a field of exposed rivals.

Shibuya Song is a 7-year-old mare from the United Kingdom, trained by James Owen and sired by New Approach out of Silent Music. She has two career wins from 31 starts, including her most notable success at Newbury in July 2022 under Hollie Doyle. She has run consistently in Class 5 and 6 handicaps, placing on several occasions, and performs best on good ground. While she has not won in over a year, Shibuya Song is experienced and can be competitive if she recaptures her best form, particularly in races suited to her staying-sprinting trips and consistent race rhythm.

Definite is a gelding who goes to Kempton today and has shown he can operate to a solid level on the all-weather, with previous efforts over a similar trip where he travelled well and finished close enough to suggest today’s mark is workable. He has run to this level or better off comparable ratings before, and there is form in his record that indicates this distance suits his style. With a race likely to be run to allow him to settle and build momentum, he has a realistic chance of stepping forward and featuring prominently.
