Kempton Park Race 2 - Visit Sri Lanka Handicap
LIFE AFTER LOVE (4) was denied by just a neck at Lingfield last time having won at Southwell the start before that. Clearly thriving at present and set to take beating once more. MAGNIFICENT MEL (9) posted best effort yet when a neck second at Wolverhampton. Can improve again and rates a big chance of shedding the maiden tag. REAL GOLD (8) placed last two starts. Only worn down late when beaten 0.5L last time. Warrants thought as expected to go close again. FAITHFUL DREAM (5) has been going well this campaign. Drawn nicely and certainly on a workable mark holds big each way claims under a good jockey.

Recent form sound. At the latest run 2nd in a small field at Lingfield All Weather on February 25 over 1000m, neck behind Rosieisme Darling carrying 59kg at $4. The race before that won by a nose at Southwell All Weather February 7 over 1000m defeating Mythical Night with 61kg at $4.30. Will take plenty of beating.

Second-up. First-up after nine months didn't do much in the run home; ran last of 7 at this track on February 18 over 1400m, 21 len behind Who's On First carrying 60kg at $23. Previously second-up got back early 7th of 9 at Wolverhampton on May 27 over 1000m, 6 len behind Bone Marra carrying 60.5kg at $151. Looking elsewhere.
