Kempton Races: Tuesday, November 19, 2025
4.05 Unibet Supports Safer Gambling Apprentice Handicap (1m)
| Rank | Horse (TimeWise Master Rating) |
|---|---|
| 1 | Threatening (83) |
| 2 | Albus Anne (82) |
Recent Form & Comments
- Threatening (3yo, 9-10): Resumed his progress after three months off when landing a 1m handicap at Chelmsford. He is up 5lb but is not taken lightly in his current mood.
- Albus Anne (6yo, 9-8): Arrives on a hat-trick following two recent wins at Bath, the latest in a 1m2f event 20 days ago. She is proven on Polytrack and is well in the mix, despite being up another 5lb.
Spotlight Verdict
Plenty are in with a shout. TOP OF THE CLASS has gained all her three successes over C&D and is primed for another bold showing following her promising Southwell fourth after a layoff. Recent C&D winner Atmosphere heads the list of dangers, although hat-trick seeker Albus Anne and Chelmsford victor Threatening seem sure to go well too. In-form duo Uniting and Wilhelmina complete the shortlist.
Race Statistics
- Age Groups: 3yo 1-3-19, 4yo+ 2-3-19.
- Fate of Favourites: 011.
- Trainer Records (in this race): T J Kent 1-0-1, Tony Carroll 0-1-1.
Assessment of Top Two
- Threatening:
- Strengths: Showed renewed progress by winning recently, maintains a good mood/form.
- Weaknesses: Carries a 5lb penalty for the win.
- Suitability: Not taken lightly in current mood.
- Albus Anne:
- Strengths: Hat-trick seeker, proven on Polytrack, well in the mix.
- Weaknesses: Has an additional 5lb penalty.
- Suitability: Well in the mix.
4.40 Set Your Limits With Unibet Nursery Handicap (1m)
| Rank | Horse (TimeWise Master Rating) |
|---|---|
| 1 | Sunshine And Roses (66) |
| 2 | Moon Is Up (61) |
Recent Form & Comments
- Sunshine And Roses (2yo, 9-8): Is a steadily progressive type who achieved a very good third place in her nursery debut at Wolverhampton (7f) 25 days ago. She is considered a likely player back over 1m.
- Moon Is Up (2yo, 9-9): This Kameko filly took a major step forward when finishing fifth of 13 in an 8.5f Wolverhampton maiden 25 days ago, keeping on late despite encountering interference (short of room over 1f out). She is very much one to consider now entering handicaps, with further improvement expected.
Spotlight Verdict
This race is wide open. Progressive SUPERSTORM caught the eye when staying on into third at Southwell last time and gets the vote, as the step up in trip is also a likely positive. Leicester runner-up Raging Raj could emerge as the chief threat, although Moon Is Up, Suggy and Sunshine And Roses can all have a say too.
Race Statistics
- Age Groups: Restricted to 2yo, so no age breakdown provided.
- Fate of Favourites: The card statistics show 011.
- Trainer Records (in this race): Not specified in the provided tables.
Assessment of Top Two
- Sunshine And Roses:
- Strengths: Steadily progressive, achieved a good result on her nursery debut.
- Weaknesses: None explicitly mentioned.
- Suitability: Likely player back over 1m.
- Moon Is Up:
- Strengths: Took a big step forward last time and is expected to have better still to come.
- Weaknesses: Was short of room over 1f out in her last race.
- Suitability: Very much one to consider now going into handicaps.
5.10 British Stallion Studs EBF Restricted Maiden Stakes (1m)
| Rank | Horse (TimeWise Master Rating) |
|---|---|
| 1 | Guesstimate (78) |
| 2 | Marseillan (74) |
Recent Form & Comments
- Guesstimate (2yo, 9-0): Finished third of 11 in a novice at Newmarket (7f, good) four weeks ago, seven lengths adrift of the first two. Her performance was never dangerous. This form likely gives her the best chance in the field, although it does not set a high standard, and she should improve.
- Marseillan (2yo, 9-5): Has shown fair form, finishing third at Chelmsford (7f, AW) and subsequently second of eight at Pontefract (6f, soft) with cheekpieces fitted. On both starts, he hung and carried his head high, suggesting he may be limited to minor honours at best.
Spotlight Verdict
Ten runners are newcomers, with Mythical Valentine arguably heading them on paper. The four horses that have run do not set a high standard, but BRIDGE OF EAGLES is tentatively preferred to Guesstimate among that group. The market moves should provide significant clues.
Race Statistics
- Age Groups: Restricted to 2yo, so no age breakdown provided.
- Fate of Favourites: The card statistics show 011.
- Trainer Records (in this race): Not specified in the provided tables.
Assessment of Top Two
- Guesstimate:
- Strengths: Should improve; possesses the best form chance among the runners with exposed form.
- Weaknesses: Her third place result was “never-dangerous” and did not set a high standard.
- Suitability: Expected to improve.
- Marseillan:
- Strengths: Has shown fair placed form on both AW and turf.
- Weaknesses: Has shown problematic traits, hanging and carrying his head high.
- Suitability: May be looking at minor honours at best.
5.40 Try Unibet’s New Improved Acca Boosts Handicap (1m)
| Rank | Horse (TimeWise Master Rating) |
|---|---|
| 1 | First Principle (105) |
| 2 | Local Hero (104) |
Recent Form & Comments
- First Principle (3yo, 9-5): Was gelded and returned to form when winning a 1m Southwell handicap 19 days ago, beating Two Tempting by 3/4l. Although up 3lb, he could have more to offer and is a likely player again.
- Local Hero (4yo, 9-11): A reliable type who secured his third C&D victory in an 11-runner handicap four weeks ago. Despite being up 5lb, he should not be taken lightly.
Spotlight Verdict
William Haggas’ progressive First Principle won at Southwell last time, making it 3-5. However, DIVIDEND shaped well when third that day after a break and could come out on top here on 3lb better terms. Handicap debutant Silver Peak is also of interest, while C&D scorers Two Tempting and Invited also need factoring into this cracking handicap.
Race Statistics
- Age Groups: 3yo 2-0-7, 4yo+ 0-4-16.
- Fate of Favourites: 41.
- Trainer Records (in this race): Not specified in the provided tables.
Assessment of Top Two
- First Principle:
- Strengths: Progressive, recent winner, could have more to offer, likely player.
- Weaknesses: Carries a 3lb rise for the win.
- Suitability: Likely player again.
- Local Hero:
- Strengths: Reliable, recent C&D winner (third time over C&D).
- Weaknesses: Up 5lb.
- Suitability: Not taken lightly.
6.10 Unibet/British Stallion Studs EBF Restricted Novice Stakes (Div I) (6f)
| Rank | Horse (TimeWise Master Rating) |
|---|---|
| 1 | One And Gone (78) |
| 2 | Grand Vista (69) |
Recent Form & Comments
- One And Gone (2yo, 9-7): Has been placed on two of his three career runs, culminating in a good third place in a 6f Chelmsford maiden 41 days ago for his previous trainer. Having since changed hands for 12,000gns, he is well in the mix for his new stable.
- Grand Vista (2yo, 9-5): Shaped well on his debut when fourth of seven in a maiden at Newbury (6.5f, soft) 26 days ago. He is sure to build on that initial performance and rates a player.
Spotlight Verdict
Ollie Sangster’s Southwell runner-up Cool Molly and One And Gone, now starting out for Ian Williams, have the form to go well. However, the vote goes to GRAND VISTA, who made a promising debut when fourth at Newbury and can improve sufficiently to get off the mark.
Race Statistics
- Age Groups: Restricted to 2yo, so no age breakdown provided.
- Fate of Favourites: 110113.
- Trainer Records (in this race): Not specified in the provided tables.
Assessment of Top Two
- One And Gone:
- Strengths: Consistent placed form; good recent effort in maiden; ready to compete for his new stable.
- Weaknesses: None explicitly mentioned.
- Suitability: Well in the mix.
- Grand Vista:
- Strengths: Promising debut effort, sure to build on it, rated a player.
- Weaknesses: None explicitly mentioned.
- Suitability: Can improve sufficiently to win.
6.40 Unibet/British Stallion Studs EBF Restricted Novice Stakes (Div II) (6f)
| Rank | Horse (TimeWise Master Rating) |
|---|---|
| 1 | Euphonia (77) |
| 2 | Mighty Vega (76) |
Recent Form & Comments
- Euphonia (2yo, 9-2): Made a positive start when finishing fourth of ten (3l behind) in a novice race at Haydock (6f, good) in July. Her subsequent long absence is the chief concern.
- Mighty Vega (2yo, 9-7): Kept on nicely to be beaten 2l in the Brocklesby at Doncaster in March. He failed to replicate that form in his second start, was gelded shortly after, and has been absent for 207 days since. His history provides mixed signals.
Spotlight Verdict
Mighty Vega disappointed on his second start and has been absent for 207 days since. As a result, the promising once-raced pair EUPHONIA and Lolabella appeal most.
Race Statistics
- Age Groups: Restricted to 2yo, so no age breakdown provided.
- Fate of Favourites: 110113.
- Trainer Records (in this race): Ed Walker 1-0-1.
Assessment of Top Two
- Euphonia:
- Strengths: Positive first run, promising appeal.
- Weaknesses: Significant absence since July.
- Suitability: Appeals most among the field.
- Mighty Vega:
- Strengths: Strong debut showing in the Brocklesby.
- Weaknesses: Disappointed on his second start; long layoff (207 days) since being gelded.
- Suitability: Mixed signals and needs to return in top form.
7.10 Unibet 40,000+ Live Streamed Events Nursery Handicap (6f)
| Rank | Horse (TimeWise Master Rating) |
|---|---|
| 1 | From The Hip (79) |
| 2 | Akabusi (75) |
Recent Form & Comments
- From The Hip (2yo, 9-7): After finishing eighth in a Lingfield handicap, he achieved career-best form by winning a Chelmsford maiden (Polytrack) over this trip a fortnight later. He is respected upon his return to the handicap sphere.
- Akabusi (2yo, 9-9): Made a winning debut for his current stable on Tapeta at Wolverhampton (6f) three weeks ago, having previously won on his handicap debut in July. Although the 5lb rise demands more, he is still very much respected in his repeat bid.
Spotlight Verdict
None of these runners can be safely ruled out. Akabusi got off to the perfect start for this yard last month and should go well in the repeat bid, but STATION BAR hails from a family his trainer knows inside out and he can make a winning handicap debut.
Race Statistics
- Age Groups: Restricted to 2yo, so no age breakdown provided.
- Fate of Favourites: The card statistics show 011.
- Trainer Records (in this race): Not specified in the provided tables.
Assessment of Top Two
- From The Hip:
- Strengths: Recent career-best winning form on Polytrack.
- Weaknesses: Had a poor run (8th) in his previous handicap start.
- Suitability: Respected returned to this sphere.
- Akabusi:
- Strengths: Dual winner, recently won on stable debut, very much respected, should go well in the repeat bid.
- Weaknesses: The 5lb rise demands more.
- Suitability: Very much respected.
7.40 Unibet More Extra Place Races Handicap (6f)
| Rank | Horse (TimeWise Master Rating) |
|---|---|
| 1 | Justcallmepete (85) |
| 2 | Bill Plumb (84) |
Recent Form & Comments
- Justcallmepete (6yo, 9-9): Is on a losing sequence but has been consistently competitive since joining Tony Carroll, finishing runner-up in a 6f Wolverhampton handicap last time despite not getting the clearest run. He merits serious consideration off an unchanged mark.
- Bill Plumb (6yo, 9-5): This C&D winner secured two 6f wins at Yarmouth this autumn and posted another good effort (wearing first-time cheekpieces) when third of 12 in a 6f Newcastle handicap 12 days ago. He ought to be in the shake-up once more.
Spotlight Verdict
A case can be made for a few runners, but the vote goes to JUSTCALLMEPETE (nap) who can secure a deserved first victory for Tony Carroll following a very good Wolverhampton second. David Evans’ Supreme King shaped with promise when sixth at Doncaster recently and rates a big danger, while others to consider are Hierarchy, Lerwick, Havana Joy, and Bill Plumb.
Race Statistics
- Age Groups: 3yo 1-3-19, 4yo+ 2-3-19.
- Fate of Favourites: The card statistics show 011.
- Trainer Records (in this race): T J Kent 1-0-1, Tony Carroll 0-1-1.
Assessment of Top Two
- Justcallmepete:
- Strengths: Consistently knocking on the door, recent runner-up finish despite a troubled trip, runs off an unchanged mark.
- Weaknesses: Is on a losing sequence.
- Suitability: Merits serious consideration; selected as the NAP.
- Bill Plumb:
- Strengths: C&D winner, dual autumn winner, recently placed third, ought to be in the shake-up.
- Weaknesses: None explicitly mentioned.
- Suitability: Ought to be in the shake-up once more.
8.10 Unibet 3 Uniboosts A Day Handicap (1m 2f 219y / Approx 1m 3f)
| Rank | Horse (TimeWise Master Rating) |
|---|---|
| 1 | Just Keep Flying (90) |
| 2 | Tiger (85) |
Recent Form & Comments
- Just Keep Flying (3yo, 9-7): This lightly raced 3yo won on her debut in August. She showed similar form in a novice and a subsequent handicap as a short-priced favourite but has yet to win again. She has only had three races and could easily have more potential.
- Tiger (3yo, 9-3): Won over 1m1f on the AW in March in France. He is slipping in the weights based on his three British handicap runs and has shown some promise recently, although he tends to take a strong hold.
Spotlight Verdict
Just Keep Flying got seriously involved in her last two starts and, having had only three races, still has potential. However, HINCHINBROOKE has been returning to form recently, including over C&D, and is tipped to get off the mark. Hebridean Nomad is an interesting each-way option off a reduced mark and a drop back in trip.
Race Statistics
- Age Groups: 3yo 1-3-19, 4yo+ 2-3-19.
- Fate of Favourites: The card statistics show 011.
- Trainer Records (in this race): T J Kent 1-0-1, Tony Carroll 0-1-1.
Assessment of Top Two
- Just Keep Flying:
- Strengths: Lightly raced (three starts total), stands out due to potential. Could easily have more to offer.
- Weaknesses: Has cost favourite backers on her last two starts (failed to win).
- Suitability: High potential.
- Tiger:
- Strengths: AW winner in France; weights are slipping; shown some recent promise.
- Weaknesses: Has a tendency to take a strong hold.
- Suitability: Needs to overcome holding strongly to feature.
