Verdict

With Kieren Fallon a positive jockey booking Tapau is expected to land this feature race with Middleton Grey, Climate and Dayglow Dancer fighting out the minor honours. The selection put in a career best performance last time out at Leicester and having shown his liking for this trip in the past is expected to score here for his in-form trainer. Climate is due a handicap win having run well in some decent races of late without winning. He still looks on the upgrade and his stable is just waiting to burst forth with winners. Middleton Grey does not seem to know how to run a bad race and would win this easily on the all-weather. However this is on turf for the time being at Kempton and it is significant Kieren Fallon who rode him last time out has abandoned the popular grey. If Dayglow Dancer has recaptured the form he showed last season he should go very close but although he ran well in victory last time out he still has a lot to prove as regards consistency. So, to sum up, Tapau is the selection with Climate and Dayglow Dancer the biggest dangers.
