Kempton Park Race 1 - Unibet/British Stallion Studs Ebf Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
ENCOUNTER (3) continues to perform consistently. Finished third over 1600m here last time and this likeable performer should be firmly in the mix again. HAYATE (4) made a promising start when third tackling 1200m at Newmarket going down by 2.5L. Likely to have progressed during his absence and could make the frame. I AM ROYAL (5) has been a regular placegetter. Again finished third trying 1200m at Yarmouth beaten 2.5L. This looks a good opportunity to get closer. UOMO VALEROSO (8) makes his debut as a colt by War Front out of Torreadora. Comes from a high-class family featuring a G1 winner and is worth monitoring.

Resuming. Finished off last preparation fifth of 7 at Beverley July 4 over 1000m, 8 len behind Palm Reader carrying 60.5kg at $4.30. On debut ran last in a small field at Hamilton Park June 10 over 1200m, 12 len behind Royal Heritage carrying 59kg at $19. Must improve significantly to play a role in the finish.

Form hard to fault. Last start rolled along in front before being edged out 3rd of 11 at this track on September 30 over 1600m, 1.5 len behind Muqarrabin carrying 60.5kg at $3.30. Before that ran second last in a small field at Doncaster on August 1 over 1400m, 1.75 len behind Weleyff carrying 61kg at $4. This looks the ideal assignment.

Having third race start. At very big odds at debut, ran last of 9 at this track on September 14 over 1400m, 24 len behind National Honour carrying 59kg at $151. Last start eased back early on 8th of 10 at this track on September 30 over 1600m, 12 len behind Votadini with 60.5kg at $501. Can't see him breaking through for the maiden win this time.
