Side with Loxley at Kempton | Keith Hamer has a tip for every race on Monday


Keith Hamer makes Loxley his best bet of the day at Kempton on Monday - check out his full preview and tips here.


Loxley can strike on his second race following a long break when he lines-up for the Unibet 3 Uniboosts A Day Floodlit Stakes at Kempton on Monday.

Charlie Appleby’s charge found the classy Young Rascal too good in this race 12 months ago, but can go one better having had a pipe-opener at Newmarket five weeks ago.

He was well-beaten in the Listed Godolphin Stakes but ran far too free after being off the track since returning from a spell in Dubai during the winter.

The five-year-old will be a different proposition this time and will be hard to beat if he reproduces the kind of form he showed when beating Defoe in a Group Two at Meydan in March.

Victory Chime looks a good bet in the Try Our New Super Boosts At Unibet Handicap on the back of a smart performance at Pontefract.

The Ralph Beckett-trained five-year-old shrugged aside course specialist Highwaygrey with ease to score by two and a half lengths when making all the running.

The handicapper has had his say, putting him up 6lb, but Victory Chime was really good that day and can take the rise in is stride.

Outrage ran his best race for some time when an eye-catching second to Doc Sportello at Newcastle.

The eight-year-old, trained by Daniel and Claire Kubler, finished with a flourish to get within three-quarters of a length of the winner.

On the evidence of that effort, he can again get his head in front in the Play 4 To Win At Betway Handicap at Wolverhampton.

One Night Stand has been in pretty decent form of late and can take the Betway Casino Handicap for his second success in his last three starts.

William Jarvis’ three-year-old won in good style at Windsor and was not beaten far when sixth to Mokaatil at Nottingham last time.

Medalla De Oro lost nothing in defeat when runner-up to the progressive Cormier at Fakenham and looks the one to beat in the Sky Sports Racing Sky 415 Handicap Hurdle at Plumpton.

That was the third time in a row Medalla De Oro had finished second, but his trainer Harry Whittington has found the right race for that confidence-boosting success.

Wisecracker can make a triumphant return to the scene of his last success in the starsports.bet Watch And Bet For Free Handicap Chase at Hereford.

Ben Case’s gelding took the same race 12 months ago and was runner-up in 2018. He bids for a repeat off an 8lb high mark.

However, Wisecracker was even higher a couple of starts ago, but has now been dropped a couple of pounds. It looks enough to see him put up another bold show.
