Kempton Park Race 3 - Unibet Support Safer Gambling Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
BERKSHIRE WHISPER (2) looks like the one to beat following a highly promising debut second over track and trip four weeks ago. Andrew Balding is operating at a 28% strike rate over the last two weeks and his son of Dark Angel can enhance that here. The Richard Hughes trained well-bred newcomer ALONE MEHMAS (4) could be the main danger. SANDS OF HAVANA (6) finished fifth of nine at Southwell following six months off. Can post an improved effort after that outing. HAVANA JOY (5) warrants a check in the betting first time out.

Resuming after a eight months break. Finished off last campaign second last of 15 at Haydock Park June 6 over 1200m, 17 len behind Dubai Bling carrying 60.5kg at $15. On debut 17th of 20 at Newbury May 17 over 1200m, 10 len behind Mr Chaplin with 60.5kg at $26. Will benefit from that race experience so worth considering.
