Kempton Racing Tips: Escape Free can strike

NAP: Escape Free can open her account

Escape Free - 20:00 Kempton

Escape Free is the least exposed runner in this field and she makes plenty of appeal now making her handicap debut. She has showed plenty to work on in all three of her starts so far, notably when fourth over this course and distance last month, and she wasn't knocked about dropped to a mile on her qualifying run at Lingfield 19 days ago. She is bred to be useful, especially at this sort of trip, and an opening mark of 67 looks very workable with David Probert back in the saddle.

NEXT BEST: Bibulous a player back on all-weather

Bibulous - 20:30 Kempton

Bibulous' sole win came over this course and distance just under a year ago, but his consistency on turf this year is hard to argue with, and he will remain of interest from this sort of mark. He was only beaten a neck in second by a course specialist at Chepstow last time and they both pulled well clear of the remainder, so the form has a solid look. The handicapper has raised Bibulous 3 lb since, but that is fair enough, and he represents a yard that are enjoying a good finish to the season.
