Analyis of the race

A low grade handicap, but reasonably competitive of its type. The pace was far from strong and nothing got involved from off it. Indeed the first five at the finish were the first five into the straight.

OUR KES is being kept busy and she came with a strong run in the final furlong to lead close home, recording her first Kempton win in the process. She should continue paying her way at this sort of level.

Alexander Guru has been running well in similar races since his Wolverhampton success and did so again. He, too, was staying on at the finish, but the winner was staying on a shade more strongly.

Follow The Colours shaped all right in the lead on his return to action, while Constant Cheers ran respectably after a slightly longer absence.

Dinner Date goes well here, but he was left with too much to do after getting shuffled back a bit at the end of the back straight.

Dane O'Neill reported Convallaria hung right.
