Kempton Park Race 3

Bet 20 Get 20 With Unibet Handicap

Stake: $34,243

POPMASTER (2) aims to turn two placed efforts into a win after running third in a Southwell AW handicap before losing out by a neck when runner-up here. May go one better. THE LOST KING (6) reappeared from a six month break winning by a neck beating the top pick in a 1400m handicap at this track four weeks ago. Warrants thought as expected to challenge once again. HIGH ON HOPE (10) makes some attraction from bottom of the weights and bids for a hat-trick following wins at Chelmsford and over course and distance. Dangerous. NIKOVO (5) cannot be discounted having placed second at Newcastle AW previously.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run held ground to the line 2nd of 7 at this track on January 7 over 1400m, neck behind The Lost King carrying 56kg at $2.60. The race before that 3rd in a small field at Southwell All Weather on January 1 over 1600m, 2.75 len behind Blue Rc with 57.5kg at $6. Tough to beat.

Having second run back today. Last outing struggled in the run home; ran last of 9 at Newcastle All Weather on January 16 over 1600m, 7 len behind Witch Hunter with 59.5kg at $15. At only start last preparation struggled in the run home; 11th of 14 at Newbury on April 12 over 1600m, 7 len behind Ebt's Guard with 61kg at $6. No easier this time and happy to leave out.

Comes off a 49 day let-up. Last start raced on the pace before fading 10th of 12 at this track on December 17 over 1600m, 5.5 len behind Final Night with 62.5kg at $7.50. Before that won by a nose at Southwell All Weather October 30 over 1400m defeating Master Richard carrying 61kg at $5. Unlikely to threaten.

Second-up. First-up after seven months was well back until straightening; raced back then made ground from the turn; won by a neck at this track January 7 over 1400m defeating Popmaster carrying 54.5kg at $13. Previously second-up 12th of 30 at Ascot on June 19 over 1600m, 6 len behind Arabian Story carrying 56.5kg at $17. Can get the job done again.
