BBOTD 1st Feb

5.20 Kempton Decent looking handicap for the grade with no shortage of pace with Megalala an out and out front runner with Peponi and Buxfizz all likely to be ridden fairly prominent. Focail Maith appeared to run a career best on the back of solid efforts this winter last time out, the form of that race not worked out that great and it was a falsely run race with a slow time and will need another career best in a much stronger race under a 6lb penalty. King Of Windsor comes from a stable that does well with other yards cast's off and he ran an encouraging effort last time out on first try at this trip again it wasnt the truest run race so does still have stamina to prove at this trip, up a 1lb for that and now makes debut for new yard and looks likely to find one or two too good again. Buxfizz won a seller on penultimate start in good style, he was well in at the weights that day if putting his best foot forward, was sold to another stable after that win but was a no show back in a handicap at the weekend and is left proving something now. Megalala is unlikely to get a soft lead in this field especially coming from stall 9 and looks plenty high enough in the weights at the moment. Peponi has been consistent but generally well held, handicapper dropped her 2lb for recent uninspiring run and now has stamina to prove stepped up in trip. Lisahane Bog landed a big gamble back in November in a race which was rather gifted to him the way in panned out and has since struggled off an 8lb higher mark, handicapper finally dropped him 2lb but never one to trust but should get a good gallop here if anywhere near his best. Edgeworth is a reliable yardstick around the AW circuit but he is making his reappearance rather later than most and will perhaps need the run and has done most of his winning in much weaker races. So that leaves The Mongoose who has made an encouraging start for his new yard in stronger races than this, did the best of those held up last time out and despite being 1lb higher should make a bold bid with an assured decent gallop here and top AW jockey booked and Evans yard in good form. 1pt win The Mongoose 11/4 vc

Re: BBOTD 1st Feb Best of luck everyone. *Tamareen - Kempton 7:20* Has the plum draw in Stall 1 tomorrow and the Richard Fahey stable has been in great form over the past couple of weeks. This horse has had 3 runs at Kempton resulting in 1 win and 1 place. Tamareen is a C+D winner and its last run was very good, just failing to beat Woolfall Sovereign. From that race, Pick A Little who was in 4th that day came out and won today and Punching who was behind came out and ran well today too. Tamareen is a strong traveller, and with this plum draw should be able to make it count, and also has a 5 pound claimer on board to make life that little bit easier. It should go close for sure. *1 Point WIN @ 11/2 VC BOG*
