Tip for this race
All today's tips ›Majestic is our selection and heads the figures on our ratings at 93, four pounds clear of Forever Penywern on 89, which is a worthwhile edge in a Class 4 over a mile and a half at Kempton. That gap gives him the strongest case on paper. Forever Penywern is the chief danger, with Almekarem on 88 and Thinthread on 87 also close enough to make this a tight contest rather than a straightforward task. Majestic gets the nod, though only with low confidence given how compressed the top of the field is.
Runners
George Bass
Jack Channon 1/9
Majestic has shown enough in recent form to be the one to beat, with a second four starts back and a third two runs ago, though he is yet to win in his last six and returns after 53 days off. He has run over today's trip, and our rating of 93 puts him top of the ten.

Edward Greatrex
Warren Greatrex 1/8
Three wins in his last five starts, including a third two starts back, make Forever Penywern a leading threat, and he has run over today's trip with our rating of 89 ranking him second of ten. The risk is an eighth last time out, so he must bounce back after 28 days off while carrying 142 lb.

Rhys Clutterbuck
Sir Mark Prescott Bt 1/22
Almekarem has a win and two seconds in his last six starts, has run over today's trip and going before, and comes back after just 18 days off at 141 lb, while our rating of 88 sits above his official 84. The main risk is two modest runs since that win, a seventh last time out and an unplaced effort before it, with the yard also out of form.

Jack Callan
George Baker 2/8
Thinthread arrives off a fourth last time out, has run over today's trip and going, and our rating of 87 ranks him fourth of ten, comfortably above his official 80 off 137 lb. The one concern is that he's yet to win in his last five starts.

Blue Hercules is yet to win in his last six starts but has hit the frame in a few of them, including a third two starts back and a second three starts back, though he was eighth last time out. He has run over today's trip and returns after 25 days carrying 133 lb off an official mark of 82.

Charles Bishop
Luke Dace 0/4
Youthful King is yet to win in his last six, though back-to-back fourths two and three starts back show he can get involved, and he returns after just 14 days having run over today's trip and going. Carrying 132 lb off 75 and unplaced last time, he looks a midfield type, though our rating of 82 offers a little encouragement.

Oisin Murphy
Andrew Balding 12/49
Winged One has been beaten in her last two, finishing eighth last time out and a sixth two starts back, though a second three starts back shows she can go close, and she has run over today's trip. Yet to win in her last five, she carries 131 lb off 80, but our rating of 85 has her ranked fifth of ten.

David Probert
Alan King 0/13
Fresh from a win last time out and back within 19 days, he has run over today's trip and going, but a sixth two starts back and an eighth four runs ago show how patchy he is. Carrying 130 lb, he is ranked ninth of ten on our figures, which makes him hard to fancy.

Unplaced last time out and a fourth two starts back, Brighton View has drifted from a win four starts back, which makes him hard to fancy, ranked eighth of ten on our figures. He has run over today's trip and going, and 21 days since his last run is no concern.

Paddy Bradley
Pat Phelan 0/3
Imperial Cult won three of his last five and was fourth last time out, but a 90-day break is a concern, and he carries 128 lb with our figures ranking him tenth of ten. He has run over today's trip and going, which is a modest plus.
