Kempton Park Race 4

Unibet More Extra Place Races Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)

Prize Money: $14,760

This looks an ideal opportunity for MILITARY CROSS (4) to get off the mark having posted two really promising efforts. Last seen when well beaten by a stablemate at Ascot over 2410m by 8L in a novice stakes. That is the best form on offer and warrants plenty of thought. BAHADUR (3) hasn't been seen since finishing third at Doncaster over 2400m beaten 5L. One to watch for the future. SOLARIZE (6) was not disgraced at Chelmsford City last week attempting 2000m. Will appreciate this step up in trip and looks interesting. Watch the betting for debutant PYLEATES (8) who is a half sister to G1 winner Pyledriver.

Second-up. First-up after three months ran last of 9 at Southwell All Weather on September 27 over 2400m, 47 len behind Classical Allusion carrying 61kg at $201. Previously second-up 3rd of 9 at Uttoxeter on July 8 over 3200m, 6 len behind Sevarana with 64.5kg at $34. That run was a bit plain so prefer her later on.

Lining up for just third start. At debut, 2nd of 9 at this track on September 15 over 2400m, head behind Port Of London carrying 58.5kg at $9.50. Second-up raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 7 at Ascot on October 3 over 2410m, 8 len behind Aegean Prince with 59kg at $5. Should prove hard to beat.

Raced twice to date. At very long odds at debut, 6th of 13 at Southwell All Weather on August 1 over 2200m, 17 len behind Byblos carrying 60.5kg at $67. Second-up 9th of 14 at Southwell All Weather on September 2 over 2200m, 17 len behind Race To The Stars carrying 59kg at $251. Hard to see him playing a major role.

Third race start today. At very big odds at debut, ran last in a small field at this track on September 3 over 2400m, 31 len behind Club Class carrying 58kg at $151. Last start ran last in a small field at Epsom Downs on September 28 over 2000m, 27 len behind Alcarath carrying 54.5kg at $151. Looks to be making up the numbers.
