16.50 Kempton: Song Light @ 14/1 Paddy Power - 1pt win
Song Light was a good deal beaten back in 3rd place lto but I felt he ran a much better race than the bare result suggested. He took a keen hold for most parts of the first half to the race but then appeared to travell like a dream in rear approaching home turn. He hit a bit of aflat spot for a moment around 2f out, but this was pretty much down to the fact that the pace was slow more most parts of the race and that the leading horses were able to kick on and sustain their effort without tiring. The first two + 4th placed horse travelled prominent.y or from the front. Song Ligh ran on really strongly though, in fact finishing strongly as the only one from off the pace. Considering all of that it has to be said that this was an excellent performance actually. He still didn't have too many races under his belt and is potentially on a good mark.
17.20 Kempton: Russian Ice @ 11/2 Paddy Power - 3pts win
Russian Ice was pretty unlucky three weeks ago here at Kempton when she had to overcome the widest draw but most importantly got badly hampered over 3f out by a shifting horse, She clearly lost momentum at a crucial stage of the race and had to find her rhythm again, what she did eventually when she finished strongly in 3rd in the end, which makes this a really good performance. She can race off the same mark again tomorrow, which is 4lb below her last winning mark and with four course and distance wins so far here she should go really well again, with a better draw and hopefully a clear run. It wouldn't take to much to win this.
