Verdict

Low numbers are historically favoured in Kempton sprints and we will take our chance with Secret Pride. Barry Hills filly is well related to a number of decent sprinters and while we have not seen too much of her on the racecourse - she did well to finish third to Circuit Dancer after a very tardy start at Chester. Compensation surely awaits. Litewska scarcely runs two races alike. She has definite ability but alas a somewhat suspicious temperament. She did not run well on a previous visit to the track and could be worth opposing from a high draw. Caught In The Dark is often well backed in similar events and is now back to six furlongs. She has work to do off this mark although headgear is donned in order to try and extract the necessary improvement. Sprint king Roger Charlton sends out Domirati. He finished second to a well-fancied runner at Sandown last week and is now upped in trip to six furlongs. Of the remainder, Maddie's A Jem may be worth a look in the market. Although we are not truly convinced about her abilities to stay six furlongs - she is well drawn and is trained by a shrewd handler. We will stick with Secret Pride to add to Barry Hills' recent run of good form.
