Medici all set for four-timer at Kempton

RACING: Clever placement by Sir Mark Prescott, with Luke Morris in the plate

- The FERRET

Sir Mark Prescott is renowned for his horses running up rapid sequences of wins, and ANNA MEDICI is just such a runner in the Smarter Bets With Matchbook Betting Exchange Handicap at Kempton

She opened her account with victory in an apprentice heat at Chelmsford at the end of last month and has since scored twice more, most recently at Wolverhamp­ton just over a week ago.

Slowly away in another apprentice event, Anna Medici found plenty for pressure to eventually edge home by a short head, showing a very likeable attitude.

The daughter of Sir Percy avoids a penalty for that success and, with Luke Morris in the plate now, Prescott seems to have made a clever bit of placing.

SIR TITAN appears to have really hit his stride this term and can keep up the good work with a third victory this year in the Matchbook Traders Conference Handicap.

Out of the reckoning in two juvenile starts, Sir Titan was gelded over the winter.

That operation seems to have worked wonders this term, with Marcus Tregoning’s colt boasting two wins and a second in three starts.

WOLFCATCHE­RJACK can make it a double for Prescott and Morris in the Better Odds With Matchbook Betting Exchange Handicap.

Meanwhile, QUANTUM DOT is worth following in the Good People Recruitmen­t Handicap at Brighton. SELECTIONS: BRIGHTON: 2.00 Quantum Dot, 2.30 Al Ozzdi, 3.00 Hallingham, 3.30 Prosecutio­n, 4.00 Buxted Dream, 4.30 The Bear Can Fly, 5.00 Papou Tony.

KEMPTON: 2.15 Silver Bullet, 2.45 Great Shot Sam, 3.15 Ambrosia, 3.45 ANNA MEDICI (NAP), 4.15 Sir Titan, 4.45 Hackney Road, 5.15 Wolfcatche­rjack.

DOUBLE: Anna Medici and Sir Titan.
