All eyes will be on the Kempton going report ahead of their Lanzarote Hurdle Day fixture on Saturday 13th January, where the card also features the Silviniaco Conti Chase and will showcase three races shown LIVE on ITV4.
Kempton Going Currently Described as ‘Good-to-Soft’ Ahead Of Lanzarote Hurdle Day
It’s Lanzarote Hurdle day at Kempton Park this Saturday and with a lot of cold, wet and freezing weather sweeping the country at the moment track officials will be keeping a close eye on the weather – especially with Sandown Park called off last weekend.
Good news at the moment is that the track are reporting no problems, with the colder weather expected next week.
The seven-race card will also feature the Grade 2 Silviniaco Conti Chase and a must-see matchup between the former Arkle Chase winner Edwardstone and the Paul Nicholls-trained Pic D’Orhy, who was last seen winning the 1965 Chase at Ascot.
ITV4 will show three of the seven races on the Kempton card, with the New Bet-in-Race with Coral Handicap Chase the other contest making up the trio of ITV races.
