Kempton Park Race 2 - Unibet Supports Safer Gambling Ebf Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
BYZANTINE (1) challenged the long-time leader in likeable fashion at Yarmouth 132 days ago. Managed to put daylight between himself and his other three rivals then galloped clear to win when the leader unseated. That horse has since won a G1 in Canada. Undoubtedly is the one to beat on that form. TWELVE BARS (9) was fiercely keen early on debut at Newmarket so did well to hunt down the experienced leader to only be beaten 0.5L. Biggest danger. KABOOM (3) received no cover debuting at Newmarket and will improve with the experience. FENAROLI (2) is unraced by Frankel and a half sibling to an American Group race performer.
