We’re going to concentrate on the lanzerotti handicap hurdle 242 make note of that 2 miles five furlongs and imposed twice 7 to2 with coral Nan lion who has been back this week and quite popular 5 to1 son Juno 11-2 and King Alexander 8 to1 14’s Irish

Hill good luck charm is also 14s Mark of gold 16s Amino AA is 16 to1 same with up for parole and Samuel spade and also M Hill 20s and biger the rest we’ll get stuck into this in a moment this is a this is a good card isn’t it Rachel one

That you like going to isn’t it oh it’s one of my it’s one of my favorite cards to go to um Kempton because sort of you have all the rasat Taz and good racing like you do on boxing day but without you know the boxing day massive crowds

Like there’s a very good crowd but you can move around and and it’s just a it’s a it’s a cracking card cor will put a lot of money into it Coral do add a little rasat Taz it’s one of these new premier race meetings or whatever that

Means because so far I haven’t noticed any difference but um they’ll have the previews it’s a really good fun day to go out and it it kicks off with probably we might be seeing one of the best juveniles in the country that we have in

A a n George and amandaa home horse that is French all in new written and owned by David Maxwell so that’s always a bit of fun in the opening contest he actually said when it won at fonton Blue that is basically a steering job and

He’s the only one who could get it beat so we’ll see how that goes but overall it’s a great card and the addition of the Sylvan AO kti chase a couple of years years ago has sort of brings in proper stars as opposed to the lanzera

Which is just a tough puzzle to try and get your head around it is it’s a really good race though this time around we often get big price winners of the contest the last few years if you look at uh previous winners last year 12 to

One 10 to1 the year before 66 to1 the year before that 5 to1 and 16 to1 uh the two years before that so let’s concentrate on the lanzerotti really competitive this time around uh P we’ll start with impose twah uh um who is a very Progressive handicap hurdler who

Won at shelham a couple of starts ago off a mark of 121 went up 10 pounds and then was beaten at aset by Luchia last time probably should have won but fluffed the last two hurdles here’s the chelham win couple of starts ago yeah that’s the the one worry with him is

This was his last run in novice company he last run he was allowed to run a Navas company that he still makes Navy mistakes and he got away with it today but again a lot of this field made NY mistakes and he was able to just outse

The likes of donica who’s going to stay on and he’s done this very very well he went to aset and basically knocked most hurdles out of the ground and the last two yeah had he not he might have been able to get up to his stablemate Luchia

But he at no point really looked like he had the Speed again that was over two we’re now stepping back up to 2 miles and five which he run he won really well around low albeit it was an egg and Spoon novice hurdle but the way that he

Accelerated away under under Nico at chel uh chel chelam cheltam um as opposed to we’re doing Chelmsford um and at asot was sort of slowly building up ahe of steam under John do up the hill that one would suggest on a flat truck going over further will really suit him

But he’s got to be better over his hurdles he’s he can’t knock him out of the ground particularly on lenara day uh Bary Clifford tends to put the last hurdle closer to the Finish Line Between Two out and one out on the chase course so there’s a little bit there’s a longer

Run from two out to one out and then a short run from last hurdle to finish line that he won’t have a stiff Hill to make up any ground if he knocks that one out of the ground so he needs to get his jumping a little bit better in that

Context yeah 134 is marked now he’s been raised three pounds for defeat at as I don’t think that’s necessarily a problem with him because I think he’s a horse of a fair bit of potential for the Nikki Henderson team however I think Rachel’s right he’s jumping could do with

Brushing up a little bit he could do with being a bit Slicker at his hurdle son andho is an interesting runner for Paul Nichols now Harry Cobden will be on board um he’s a strong traveling individual he’s pretty consistent and he beats Prince zalar last time at anry there were six

Lengths between them Prince alar not running uh in the lands zotti but this was a better run than he put up when uh fourth at chelam on his previous start he didn’t run too badly at CH was behind the berry Co Lord but this was an

Improvement it was but he wears a nose band very few horses of Nichols wears a nose band and this is why he jumps this he gets to the front and then he absolutely dogs it furiously I mean is he big bucks in Disguise do you think

Well no he’s not I mean look at his ears he he looks a bit like him though doesn’t just he has no idea what he’s doing going on I mean look at this it’s it’s a bit like was it was it brain power at Sandown like 10 years ago when

He winning in hooks he’s not that bad though is he but the worry is he travels so well if he gets to the front too soon you can’t be doing this at the end of a lens zerati because you will have those horses closing furiously down the

Outside I think he is a massively talented horse who’s just got to get the the the brain and the body sort of in sync I think if the hurdle configur is what will be against the Nikki horse it will be helpful for him because he

Doesn’t want a very long run in which he had at anry he wants pop the last and then deliver I mean this is going to be one where Harry copton is going to have to take pains to sort of follow the right wheel through because he’s one you

Don’t necessarily want to be in front for too too soon then again as we said the last time that Nichols had a winner of this contest it was modus who was another quirky individual who wore a nose band it was a bit of a slow motion

Finish for me he didn’t find he didn’t go any faster off the bridal than he did when he traveled cruised up on it it was Heavy ground yeah it was a bit of an attritional contest it was hard work now the ground is likely given the forecast

And given what we’ve heard from Barney Clifford already this week to be a fair bit quicker it’s going to be proper good Kempton jumping ground which I think will suit because when he he won the last time he won was at Huntington that was a s very similar good ground and um

I mean he’s one that he’s got so much talent it’s just putting it putting it all together and the other interesting thing is in the entirety of the lanera cycle is a race and it changed massively in 2007 when it stepped up to 2 miles 5 from the two miles of lenara

Christmas hurdle winner that it was named after that no horse in any semblance of History has won off 12Stone and he’s lumping top weight along with Langer danan who has so much back class but has hasn’t been able to find it this season no no I mean from handicapping

Point of view w 143 for Solon junor now you probably wouldn’t know quite where he ceiling is because he just he just does what he has to do so it’s quite hard to hard to gauge but he’s definitely he’s definitely a player I just be worried that things will happen

Quicker Kempton on the ground on on a sharper track as well let’s have a look at a horse who’s um Progressive and quite interesting on the back of his win at EXA last time it’s King Alexander for Nikki Henderson Tom Cannon be onard big day for Tom Canon with this ride and

Edwardstone as well of course in the sveno con this was a fasile win wasn’t it it is and even though the ground was officially good soft it looks truly horrendous when we had see the back the back shot uh which we’re going to have to because of the fog um any pay

Attention whenever Nikki Henderson runs a horse in this race he’s won it four times and Tom Cannon he’s won two of nine in his career for Nicky Henderson so not a completely left field jockey booking here but I mean his jumping is very good he he obviously learned from

When he fell at Market raisin back in June he was off for a long time took a while to get back to the races and he’s his jumping at exitor was a lot lot better so that’s that’s definitely a positive he’ll want the top of the ground which he looks which he looks

Like he’s going to be that actually at the prices if you wanted to back Nikki Anderson he’d be the one you probably would back but um the thing to to keep in mind in this in this contest is the last time we’ve had favorites win it was

A long long time ago and it was yala Ani and T for two who off what they did as Chasers were probably incredibly well handicapped as hurdlers uh but I think big prices he’s been backed a bit it’s Mt Hill at 16 to1 for for Neil mahand a

Bit off the back of the Joe Anderson um story that happened at Plumpton on their Premier Race Day on Sunday when he was for all intense of purposes off the horse and then sort of incredible core strength to get back on the horse and he’s been riding that way but this horse

He wants a sort of flat fast Galloping track and he is going to get that his win last time out I know was at Sedgefield on boxing day but he is he is a brute of a horse that actually he will race prominently he won’t get in the

Scrum and Neils horses are running absolutely out of their skin and just a big price because you know we can the 14 serious operator Lucinda Russell going great guns right now this hor is very impressive when winning at D cter last time cuz he beat pentland hills which we

Also notice that he’s not necessarily the greatest marker post for winning but he’s a very high class individual he traveled supremely well he’s another one that flat Galloping tracks he won at the Scottish national meeting um this sort of ground and he’s he is 20 to1 plus

Wherever you want to go and obviously a lot of the bookmakers will go multiple PL beyond your you can get many places in this and if it’s anything like last year although the ground will be a lot different 20 started four finished hopefully hopefully it’s a little bit

Better that ground last last year I’ve never seen ground as bad as it was at Kempton yeah I quite like King Alexander I must admit I think there’s going to be more to come from him and um I’ve always always felt that when a horse falls

Early on in its career over hurdles or over fences it’s not a bad thing because that’s probably when the big bucks are not up for grabs and they learn from that and they’re jumping in so when the big bucks are on the line and that’s the case with King Alexander I think he’ll

He’ll go well and if you were to have a play would it be serious operator or not do you think would you would you back a couple I’d back a couple I’d probably back Mo Hill and serus operator at Double distri prices because I think the favorite is solid particularly up in

Trip but the jumping the jumping is just the worry yeah King Alexander for me that’s the lot it’s fiercely competitive live on racing TV Saturday afternoon 2:42 watch live racing now on racingtv.com
