KERRERA TO APPRECIATE STEP BACK UP 1M4F

CLASSIC STAR GOOD CHANCE OF MAKING AMENDS
CLASSIC STAR, rather unlucky last time out at Chelmsford when getting no sort of run whatsoever, could bounce back today at Kempton in the 10-runner 7f handicap at 8pm.

RALSTON CLAIM WILL HELP FANTASTIC FLYER
SOPHIE RALSTON rides all three stable runners today at Chelmsford and the 5lbs she takes off Fantastic Flyer’s weight in the 6f handicap at 7.15pm, could be a big help.
