Kempton Park Race 1 - Unibet/British Stallion Studs Ebf Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
ENCOUNTER (3) Ran 3rd last start here and solid career start. Jockey Cieren Fallon and trainer S P C Woods show promise as a duo. Should muster plenty of early speed. Prominent showing expected and won't be far off them. UOMO VALEROSO (8) 2yo first starter by War Front for Clive G Cox and gets the perfect draw. Watch the betting. COLABA (1) 2yo debutant by Caturra for trainer Clive G Cox and will try to take advantage of the draw. Watch the market. HAYATE (4) Back after a spell. Displayed good finishing speed when 3rd last time at Newmarket and fitter for debut run. Betting may be best guide to the chances and each way is the likely play.

Caturra 2yo on debut for trainer Clive G Cox and can find a nice position from the draw. Respect the betting.

Fresh after a break. Was $4.33 and didn't find the line when 5th last run at Beverley. Should be going forward early. First appearance for a new trainer. Simply cannot have in this.

Looked good when 3rd last start at this track and good career start. Has early speed and positions nicely. Showing improvement in recent outings. Back to a shorter distance. Tough competitor.

Back from a break. Ran home into 3rd beaten by 2 1/2L last time at Newmarket and was a debutant last start. Can win this.

Solid run on the pace before weakening to finish 3rd last time at Yarmouth and promising career start. Expecting to settle positively. Been in the placegetters each start this campaign. Strong prospects.

Jumped at $19.00 and below par performance when 9th last start at Wolverhampton but was on debut last time. Likely to settle back in the field. Form will be tested here.

Jumped at $501.00 and disappointing run when 8th last start around here and coming back in distance. Does take a while to get into stride. Needs to improve.
