Flat Racing 20th March

Short of time so these are brief tonight. 7.45 Kempton This should be run at a good clip with El Bravo, Beggers Belief, Midnight Bahia, Snowy Valley, Market Puzzle, all likely to want to be up with the pace and this should sort the closers. Thane Of Cawdor is interesting stepping up in trip have shaped well last couple of times finishing well over slightly shorter. Perhaps not completely straightforward but does have some ability should it all fall right has a good chance from this sort of mark, still a maiden though. Delightful Sleep hasn’t always completely convinced over this extended trips but has shaped reasonably and wouldn’t be completed ruled out for a yard continue in hot form this AW season. For me Lytham looks worth a chance at a decent looking price. He has really found his feet this winter winning 2 class 7 handicaps latest off 49, now upto 54 but ran a brilliant race last time out off this mark finishing strongly in a race not run to suit over a furlong shorter, not ideal draw but can overcome that from the way he is ridden and this race should be run strongly to suit him and remains well handicapped on his best form and should go well again. 2pt win Lytham 8/1 bet365 8.45 Kempton Decent handicap and several of these have a chance. Rakaan is generally reliable and has run a few notably good races in defeat recently, he is on a winning mark and should take advantage of that soon but might find easier opening than this. Lord Of the Shadows is another that might find easier opportunities than this but he is worth keeping an eye on with the first time blinkers on and slipping in the weights. For me its worth taking a risk on Russian Ice, he is always a risky bet given his style of coming through runners rather than being prominent or going around runners and last time out he ran a cracker off his revised mark of 75, he looked desperately unlucky meeting massive in trouble in running but looking to finish well. Up a further 1lb but in current mood looks capable of overcoming this sort of mark. 2pt win Russian Ice 5/1 bet365

Re: Flat Racing 20th March 6.15 Kempton Still chasing an elusive AW win Scommettitrice has came close in her last two runs off a mark of 55 but the talented claimer Robert Tart takes the ride tomorrow and with the 5lb advantage this very well might be her turn. There is one real disadvantage in that her best runs have came running left while Kempton is a right handed course but at a price of 6/1 on Bet365 she's worth a few quid get her win. Spellmaker a danger.
