Fergal O'Brien has had a couple of winners in the past week or so and will be hoping I’M STILL WAITING provides him with another one at Kempton this afternoon.
He's a five year old making his handicap debut and last time at Market Rasen he showed quite a bit of promise. A keen sort, he has a hood applied for the first time and a track like Kempton should suit. He’s been backed this morning but 7/1 remains fair.
Mab Dab won on his handicap debut last time, he stays well but may be vulnerable to a speedier type today.
Quarenta is zesty and ran okay over course and distance on his last start. He remains on the same mark and has solid claims.
Schnabel should enjoy today's sharper conditions and it will be interesting to see if there is money for Magic Bullet on his handicap debut.
The horse taking a drop in class who I expect to take all the beating is TOVIERE. He ran a solid race at Stratford in October after a long summer break, then seemingly didn't quite get home on his next two starts over three miles.
Last time out on handicap debut I thought he was an interesting runner dropping back in trip and he ran a really good race despite some sketchy jumping early. The winner of that race hacked up last week which gives the form a bit of substance.
Today he has his optimum conditions off a 2lb lower mark and he represents fair value at 5/2 against horses with a few questions marks.

The only horse I didn't mention in yesterday's preview was Festive Affair and he did really well to win having had a pace dual with Deadly Approach for much of the race.
Noche de Reyes arguably had the run of the race but couldn't quite get to the winner. UN BEAU ROMAN was very weak in the market and was never sighted, eventually pulling up, while NICOLAS CHAUVIN didn't jump very well and could never get going.

The opening race at Killarney produced what looked like a smart winner in LE RICHEBOURG. With decent bumper form in the book he was making his hurdling debut and won in effortless fashion. Travelling and jumping with efficiency, he looks a real smart prospect for the summer ahead.
