Got the better of his market rival to complete the hat-trick last week when the pair finished 7L clear of the third. Probably even better over this trip and has to be taken seriously despite a hefty penalty.

Last win came over C&D about a year ago but he remains 5lb above that mark and his last three runs have been disappointing.

Relished the switch to fibresand when landing a poor race six weeks ago and the handicapper may have over-valued the form. Found out in a better contest last time and work to do off the same mark on this quicker surface.

Has seemed better suited to forcing tactics lately and drawn to attack from the front this time too. Only just denied 18 days ago and capable of adding to his 8-61 record.

Opened his account in a weak event under this pilot at Newcastle and has had his limitations exposed since. Nevertheless, he has one of the more experienced riders in this and, as a straightforward front-running type, he could enjoy an easy lead.

Has never run well at Kempton so best to overlook her latest run. Previously an excellent third to a progressive type, Pulsating, at Wolverhampton. Sole victory came here and she looks interesting under one of the strongest riders in this contest.

Best efforts have come on undulating circuits and sole victory came from the front in another apprentice race over this trip at Brighton 18 months ago. Will be better for last week's return from a layoff and cannot be dismissed lightly.

Handicap mark is in free fall and, although showing occasional glimpses of a return to form, she is proving disappointing and is probably best observed for now.

0-21 and has work to do having been behind the much improved Spare Parts on his last couple of starts.

Has looked of little account in seven races so far and races here off a mark 7lb above his official rating.

15:20 Lingfield - 17 January 2018 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

SPARE PARTS will be a warm order to add to his recent haul under one of the more experienced riders in the lineup. There is no denying he will take all the beating, but his mark is up 19lb since he embarked on this run and he meets a couple in Soaring Spirits and MOSSY'S LODGE who can seriously test him. The latter bumped into the progressive Pulsating on her penultimate start before trailing in well behind the same filly last time at Kempton. Anthony Carson's mare has never made the frame at that track in several visits, but she is 1-2 here and offers some each-way value under a good rider. Soaring Spirits is well drawn to try and cut loose on the front end and is another possibility in a race that is more open than the markets may suggest.
