Adam Kirby – rides Villette at Kempton
VILLETTE is one of nine runners today in the 0-85 handicap over 1m3f at Kempton (3.25pm) and the drop back into handicap company from Listed class should suit.
Last time out at Lingfield, she had a hopeless task at the weights and was duly sixth of seven. Today, the five-times winning daughter of Sixties Icon (from just 14 starts) has a much better chance and the 86-rated mare also had the assistance of Adam Kirby for the first time.
She has been supported in the market and is solid at 4/1. It is an open contest with Technological a worthy favourite while other dangers include Red Force One and Wimpole Hall but Villette looks to have sound each-way credentials.
