UK Racing,Boxing Day
11 years 5 months ago
Only 11 meetings today in England and Ireland,god help us.
Today's Kempton meeting is the most high profile,ignore the good/soft advertised conditions,after more rain I can assure you it's soft and heavy in places.
By the time the King George is run at 3-10 it will be bottomless ground and a real test of stamina.
In the 3-10 I'm backing Mount Benbullen ew at 14/1,shouldn't really be up to winning this,but it will handle the conditions better than most and will
be plugging on when many have had enough.
Another I like today is Quaddick Lake in 3-45 Kempton,trainer J Scott is in form,the gelding likes soft going and he ran a nice race last time out.
At 12/1 he's worth an ew bet.Also like the top weight,but it's entered at Wincanton as well and I think that's were he will be going.
Good luck.

The King George VI Chase has had only 3 horses win it in the last 9 years...stats show that if you have a French bred horse in the top 2 in the betting then its chances of winning are elevated 

Give everything but up!
