6.30 Kempton: Harry Hurricane @ 5/2 PP
Looks quite a good Handicap with some useful sorts. That says Blue Aegean is a very short favourite, despite winning really well at Chelmsford last weekend. Stepping up to 6f shouldn't pose a problem for him and turned out under penalty today means he can race off lower than he has to once the handicapper has assessed his mark, but of top weight in this field, it is not a given that he romps home. Recent CD maiden winner Volunteer Point looks a very useful filly and her opening mark is more than fair. She ought to go very close. But I feel Harry Hurricane is clearly the one to beat. He got finally off the mark in a Wolverhampton maiden over 7f earlier this month, which looks useful form with the runner-up winning a maiden subsequently. The drop in trip today is fine I think and his maiden form as a juvenile when he finished runner-up in a Kempton 5f maiden as well as 3rd in a Newmarket maiden is very strong, given what the horses in front of him did. His current looks open to explore further.
