Kempton Park – 8th November: DOM’S NAP + NB | Monday’s 2 Best Bets
Our team’s best bets of the day for the action at Kempton Park
Kempton Park’s NAP: PRESS YOUR LUCK | 3:00pm Pertemps Network Handicap Hurdle | Dom’s Pick
It could pay to take a chance on Chris Gordon’s gelding who opened his season with a fine second at Fontwell last month.
He should fare better now upped in trip at a track where he looked a big player until being brought down three out in March, following up with a runner-up effort in a tough novice at Newbury a week later.
Lanzarote winner Boreham Bill is only 4lb higher than when winning the valuable Listed contest at this course back in January and rates the chief danger to the selection.
NB: ALPHA CARINAE | 3:30pm Weatherbys nhstallions.co.uk Mares’ Handicap Chase
The in-form Olly Murphy has enjoyed winners aplenty of late and may have another on the cards with his only representative on the Sunbury-on-Thames card.
His mare was clearly not right when disappointing at Newbury but is a former point winner and had some strong form over hurdles last year, with a switch to fences now on the agenda.
She has had a wind operation since being last seen and looks nicely weighted on her debut in this sphere with Fergus Gregory claiming 3lb.
