Global Conqueror³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 85| D

5/2

Made hard work of justifying favouritism having travelled for most of the journey. The runner-up has won since and unable to dismiss given he is reportedly still learning the job.

Form: 322-521

(5)

Monadee⁴⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: J Mitchell| T: R Varian| OR: 85

9/4

Had four subsequent winners behind when opening his account at Kempton. Looked ready for this trip when running on strongly at Doncaster and a 3lb rise seems manageable.

Form: 631-2

(2)

Strange Society^b²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: James Doyle| T: H Palmer| OR: 82

7/2

210,000 gns yearling by Society Rock who improved significantly when winning on his second start last year. Good effort on return, and not disgraced in strong 3-y-o handicap at Haydock last time. Blinkers tried now. Entered Kempton 8:50 Wednesday.

Form: 31-378

(3)

Pheidippides³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: P Cosgrave| T: Tom Clover| OR: 80

7/1

Has improved with each run culminating in a close fourth on handicap debut. Has a bit more to find to trouble the principals, but that is possible.

Form: 73-44

(6)

Regular Income^p¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: J Quinn| T: A West| OR: 76| D

25/1

Best form has been with some cut underfoot and this appears a move to avoid firm ground. Down to a more attractive weight following two runs on unsuitable surfaces and entirely capable of upsetting the big guns if timing the break.

Form: 41-5447

(7)

Jungle Room^h1³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: K Stott| T: K A Ryan| OR: 76

9/1

Claims on his Wolverhampton form but not as good on turf since. Particularly poor last time and a hood is tried this time.

Form: 74-3160

(1)

Voicemail²³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: S De Sousa| T: J Tate| OR: 73| D

12/1

Her Kempton third reads better than her Ripon victory and puts her on a workable mark. Ran as though something was amiss on handicap debut and today's jockey booking is a positive.

Form: 3130-

(4)

Surfa Rosa¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: S Donohoe| T: E F Vaughan| OR: 73

33/1

Landed a poor race at Wolverhampton for Richard Hannon and improved on that when third in better company. Last of 12 on debut for this yard following a five month break and probably not up to this company.

Form: 7561-30

Forecasts

Monadee (9/4), Global Conqueror (5/2), Strange Society (7/2), Pheidippides (7/1), Jungle Room (9/1), Voicemail (12/1), Regular Income (25/1), Surfa Rosa (33/1)

Global Conqueror and MONADEE top the weights with the former opening his account having gone down narrowly in a Haydock class 3. The selection won a race that has worked out well at Kempton and that form looks better than his reappearance. However, his stable are in better form than they were then and, over this longer distance, a 3lb rise in the weights should be within bounds. Regular Income is from a yard that have had a good week and he will be more at home on this surface having disappointed on firm ground lately.
