Strong traveller set to shine in Kempton finale

7.00 Kempton
1pt win at 15-2 generallyThe Lamplighter isn't straightforward, but he does possess a notably high cruising speed for a horse of his rating.

Seven furlongs at Kempton seems to suit him ideally - he finished a career-best second to the unexposed three-year-old Enthaar over course and distance last month in lower grade - and he confirmed himself still in good form with a close Chelmsford seventh last Thursday.

Well drawn in stall two, it's not difficult to envisage him still on the bridle at the furlong pole under his low weight and, if that proves to be the case, he will have strong claims of opening his account.
