Tip for this race
All today's tips ›Dark Mandate No. 7, stall 11
Charles Bishop · Eve Johnson Houghton
✓ Distance winner ✓ Won last time out
Dark Mandate is our selection here, and his progressive profile is the reason to side with him over Penfolds Grange, who tops our ratings by only four pounds. At 70 he sits just behind the top two in a Class 6 field that looks tightly packed, so a horse still on the upgrade can close that small gap. Penfolds Grange is the obvious danger on figures, with Viking Glory and Eyes Front also within a few pounds, and this is a wide-open 13-runner contest on a standard-to-slow Kempton surface. It is a competitive heat and our confidence is low, but Dark Mandate is the pick.

Gladiadora won two starts back but was only ninth last time out, 25 days ago, so the form is patchy; she has run over today's trip and carries 140 lb from stall 10. Our rating of 65 ranks her ninth of 13.

Penfolds Grange arrives in his best form, second last time out after 28 days off, and has run over today's trip and going before. Our rating of 74 ranks him top of the 13, though he's yet to win in his last six and the main risk is a patchy record before that, with an eighth, seventh and ninth.

Travel Agent has been consistent without threatening, finishing seventh last time out and fifth three starts back, and he is yet to win in his last six. He has run over today's trip and going, and our rating of 66 sits above his official 63, but 138 lb from stall 13 is a lot to ask.

Berlinetta has finished seventh and eighth in her last two outings, a poor run since winning four starts back, which makes her hard to fancy at ranked 10 of 13 on our figures. She has run over today's trip and is back after 20 days, but 138 lb from stall two is no help.

Eyes Front arrives fit after 15 days off, having been third two starts back and a winner five starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going before. Our rating of 69 sits above his official 64, but the main risk is an unplaced run last time out under 137 lb.

Charles Bishop
Eve Johnson Houghton 2/22
Dark Mandate won last time out, 22 days ago, and a second two starts back backs up that upturn, while he has run over today's trip and on this going before. He's our pick on overall profile, with only a 135 lb burden from stall 11 to consider.

James Owen 4/44
Viking Glory has a win four starts back and a third five starts back, and he has run over today's trip, while our rating of 71 ranks him second of 13 and sits well above his official mark of 61. The risk is a seventh last time out, and a seventh three starts back, so consistency is the worry from stall 5.

Tom Kiely-Marshall (3)
James Evans 0/3
Winless in her last five, Brave Byreflection hasn't finished better than a fourth last time out, and an 89-day break doesn't help her case, so she is hard to fancy. She has run over today's trip and going, and drawn seven with 132 lb, she's ranked 11 of 13 on our figures.

Simon Dow 0/8
Runner-up last time out and fresh from a 14-day break, he has been in the frame in four of his last six, and has run over today's trip and going. Yet to win in that spell, though, and 132 lb from stall nine leaves little margin, with our rating of 66 only seventh of 13.

Luke Morris
Adrian Wintle 0/13
Manhattan Mirage was fifth last time out but is winless in his last five, with a seventh and another seventh before that, and he returns after 30 days. He has run over today's trip and going and our rating of 66 ranks him eighth of 13, so he looks a midfielder from stall 1.

Ridger arrives in cracking nick, having won last time out and two starts back, and he has run over today's trip, but our figures rank him 12th of 13. Carrying 131 lb from stall four, he is hard to fancy on a 56 rating that sits below his official 58.

Keiran Burke 0/1
Winless in her last six, Pink Diamond Girl has finished unplaced twice most recently after a seventh four starts back, so she is hard to fancy as our bottom-ranked runner of 13. She has run over today's trip and going and returns after 33 days, but 120 lb from stall 12 offers little encouragement.
