Kempton Park Race 2 - Virgin Bet Daily Price Boosts Novice Stakes (GBB Race)
NEW MONARCH (6) First up and claimed late when 2nd beaten by 2L first up last preparation at Newbury. Shows very good finishing speed. Facing a weaker grade. Has a good draw. Rates a winning chance. EL NAY (2) Couldn't maintain the momentum throughout when 2nd last run at Lingfield and fitter for debut run. Has early speed and positions nicely. Gets the perfect stall. Rising in weight. Is in good order and can run well. SPIRIT OF SAXONY (7) Back from a break of 39 weeks. Finished well when 3rd last time at Salisbury and having second race start. Should be swooping on the field late. Looks to be value. I'M JUST KEN (3) Tidy effort when 3rd last time at Wolverhampton and having second career run. Trainer has gone for the tongue tie on, take note. Looks to have a good chance of placing.

At 14/1 sub-standard effort when 5th last time at Chelmsford but was on debut last time. Significant improvement required.

Put together a strong on-speed performance when 2nd last run at Lingfield and was on debut last time. Won't be far away during the run. Drawn the rails. Should give this a shake.

Was 125/1 and had difficulty when 4th last run at Wolverhampton. Ear muffs on could be an important change. Needs a lot of luck.

First up and overrun late when 2nd beaten by 2L first up last preparation at Newbury. Will be hitting the line strongly. Goes down in class. Has a positive draw. No surprise to see solid support in the betting.

Back from a spell of 39 weeks. Managed to run 3rd last time at Salisbury and fitter for debut run. Has a great burst of speed late. Genuine claims.

First up. At 200/1 performed below standard when 8th last start at Lingfield but having second career run. Interesting gear change of tongue tie on first time. Too much luck needed to come into contention.
