3 all-weather meetings today

after yesterday´s successful "jumpers bumpers" meeting at Kempton, Southwell stage a similar meeting this afternoon, although at a rather low level. The trainers to follow here should be Donald McCain and Alan Swinbank, although in the race at 14.50 CET we like the chances of German-bred Quartano, whose trainer Warren Greatrex saddled two winners at Kempton yesterday. Otherwise our selections are: Inthesettlement (McCain/ Jason Maguire) at 13.50, Firstrock at 14.20, Bivouac at 15.20, Alfie Flits at 15.50 and Priceless Art at 16.20, the last 4 all trained by Swinbank and partnered by Barry Keniry.
The cards at Lingfield and Kempton (early evening) are more conventional. The best race is the mile handicap at 15.05 at Lingfield, with several in-form performers. We like the two bottom weights, Fantasy Gladiator (Robert Cowell/ Jimmy Quinn) and Final Drive (John Ryan/ Stephen Donohoe), who have both been in excellent form but are now moving up in grade.Later, Andrew Balding and David Probert could possibly land a double in the 6 furlong handicaps at 15.35 and 16.05 with Perfect Act and Laser Ruby respectively, while CD specialist Chjimes (Conor Dore/ Kirsty Milczarek) can also score over this trip at 16.35.
Conor Dore also has prospects at Kempton, where he saddles 3 runners in the 5 furlongs handicap at 17.25. Our choice of them is Efistorm with Amy Ryan, whose father Kevin has booked Kieren Fallon to partner Breathless Kiss, just beaten here last time over 6 furlongs. Love you Louis (John Jenkins/ Fergus Sweeney), runner-up over this CD last time, is another possibility in a very open race. Sweeney can also take the 3yo handicap over 1 1/2 miles at 18.25 on Gary Moore´s top weight New Code, while the other 3yo handicap, over a mile at 19.25 should go to John Gosden´ s lightly-raced but well-bred Private Joke (Nicky Mackay).
