Kempton Park Racecourse

"Pale Orchid is a well-bred filly who has improved for the switch to David Evans..."

Another blank day for jumps racing means the race of the day is the seven-furlong handicp at Kempton...

Right Devine has been big prices all starts but off the mark at third attempt in 7f Redcar maiden in October. Found a Group 3 too hot later that month, and opening mark stiff enough on return to action.

Adranian's strike rate is very hard to knock since the autumn, winning 5 times at Wolverhampton. Further 5 lb rise against better opposition clearly demands even more.

Pale Orchid is a well-bred filly who has improved for the switch to David Evans, backing up her ready maiden success at Lingfield when fending off a well-treated sort here (6f) last time. Type to go on progressing.

Key Ambition - NR

Discoverer Dddn't need to match debut second (dead-heated) at Lingfield (7f) to go one better over same C&D a month ago. Will get further in time, but in excellent hands and one to take seriously.

Fairway To Heaven is a €57,000 purchase who landed a bit of a touch on debut over C&D 2 weeks ago. Greenness masked his superiority that day, so open to plenty of improvement now handicapping.

Mr Knightley improved since tried blinkered on AW, bagging 3 claimers, including on debut for Jim Boyle in November. Not disgraced since, but mark sums him up, and he meets some unexposed sorts here.

Timeform 1-2-3:
1. Pale Orchid
2. Discoverer
3. Fairway To Heaven

Timeform View: Both Discoverer and Fairway To Heaven are open to plenty of improvement now handicapping, but the likeable Pale Orchid will relish the return to 7f and she's preferred.
