5:10 Kempton Tips

Gelded son of Planteur & Diamond Bangle ( Dam's sire Galileo ) who arrives here in top nick and in very good heart to make his handicap debut on a very handy mark of 60 and in my point of view this individual is very well likely to be much better than a mark of 60 in very good time and now stepping up in trip for this handicap bow that most certainly being a good move by his connections as this new trip can bring out further progress from this individual who is open to plenty of improvement he can be a whole different proposition on this return to action the cheekpieces are applied for the first time here and they can have the desired effect jockey Cieren Fallon takes the ride and can give Rum Diamond the perfect ride here at Kempton merits consideration

Kindly Queen has only had three runs so far, finishing 4-3-3. The last two runs were in Class 3, with a drop to Class 6 for this handicap debut. I would expect more from this 3yo.

Has raced over a variety of trips, showing incremental improvement with every step up in distance, as befitting his pedigree. Further improvement is likely now going over twelve furlongs, with first-time cheekpieces potentially another positive aspect.

Darn Hot Dame's first appearance on a racecourse was at Kempton, an angle I like. Only second run in a handicap and rated 57 gives scope for improvement. Beaten favourite last time but ran well, third to the Andrew Balding-trained Berkshire Schmokin. Gets a fair chunk of weight from the favourite Kindly Queen, who looks suspect to me today.

Cospicua is another long-shot. She won here on handicap debut off a 50 in January but could not follow up in February at Newcastle on the Tapeta off a 54. This 3yo should still be improving, and I think the return here off a 53 could be worth an each-way shout.

This horse staying on 5th of 13 at Wolverhampton last year is enough evidence to suggest she's well worth a try at this longer trip. Charlie Johnston has been getting his horses fit for their seasonal debuts lately, and this well-bred filly could be another one. She races here off just 62, and sire stats at this course are strong too, with progeny showing an A/E value of 1.42, which is very decent. So despite being one of the outsiders, she might well surprise.
