\"Kempton<\/p>\n

The Kempton racing continues the day after Boxing Day with another six-race card. Headlining the action from the Sunbury-on-Thames venue is a must-see edition of the Grade 2 Wayward Lad Novices’ Chase on Friday, 27 December.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This sees Irish raider Ballyburn battle bright British hope Sir Gino over an easy two miles. Also on the second day of the Christmas Festival, there’s the Grade 2 Desert Orchid Handicap Chase for those more experienced over fences.<\/p>\n

Supporting races include a mares’ handicap hurdle and handicap chase over the King George course and distance. We keep our experts busy of the festive period as they look at horse racing betting sites<\/a> and all the form in search of value selections. Let’s see their race by race analysis for the best of the action from the Greater London track:<\/p>\n

Kempton Racing Preview for Friday, 27 December<\/h2>\n

1:20 – 3m 121y Class 2 Mares’ Handicap Hurdle<\/h3>\n

The 2023 Lanzarote heroine\u00a0West Balboa<\/strong> will be popular here despite still being 11lb higher in the weights. Dan Skelton turns to amateur Heidi Palin for the ride as she takes 7lb off with her claim. Others appeal more, however, including DELLA CASA LUNGA <\/strong>after her Listed second at the track last month.<\/p>\n

Although disappointing 12 months ago when she could only finish eighth, she should confirm form with\u00a0Pawapuri<\/strong>. Della Casa Lunga is clearly better than her performance in this race last year suggests and she proved her stamina subsequently with victory around Ludlow. Quicker going is the only concern.<\/p>\n

The likes of\u00a0Larchmont Lass\u00a0<\/strong>and The Lord Maid\u00a0<\/strong>must show they stay this far, meanwhile. Royale Margaux <\/strong>has run well on her last couple of starts, so Tom Symonds’ mare looks a big price based on her Ascot second off 4lb lower. The drop back in trip at Cheltenham may have been against her the last day, yet she stayed on into fourth off her current mark. As for the others, they all run from out of the handicap.<\/p>\n
