Looking at the racing left in France today. At Toulouse in the 5.20pm race Carmenna could be the one to side with after a pleasing third on her debut at Craon over 1 mile. She will like this extra two furlongs and can get the better of Wildcatting who could be the main threat on her racecourse bow.

At Kempton this evening, Kind Of Blue in the 7.30 race appeals if he can fend off the challenge of likely chief threat Wise Approach.

More soon.

Looking at the racing in France today, at Compiègne, where it starts early at 10.20am, I like Whymper in the 10.51 race. He arrives here after winning in July on his latest start, and he should get the job done. He is currently around 11/4.

Edamura in the 11.55 is trying fences today, having fallen on his last run over hurdles at Auteuil in mid-May. He has the size and scope to do well over fences and looks tempting at around 100/30 with Bet365.

In the UK at Doncaster this weekend, I have already backed Christmas Day for the St Leger on Saturday. I think he is a bit of value at around 13/8, and any rain will not be an issue.

More soon.
