Kempton Placepot picks: Maddy Playle with her perm for the £50,000 guaranteed pool

It is risky to start with a banker with only two places on offer but it's hard to see the improving Goblet Of Fire not filling one of those positions in the first leg (6.00).

Russian Crescendo stayed on once she got the hang of things on her debut over a furlong shy of the 1m3f novice (6.30) trip last time. She is the choice of Tom Marquand and first preference, but add in her stablemate Dramatic Quest too in the hope to get Perrine beaten.

I Maximus showed lots of talent on his debut at Newbury in July, making rapid headway and finishing off nicely after rearing at the start, and he looks tough to oppose in the third leg (7.00).

Experience is taken over pedigree in the following contest (7.30), in which Sheikh Raj is picked after finishing an eyecatching second over this course and distance to the capable Yaroogh last time. It was a decent maiden Havana Whisper ran in at Newbury first time up and he is also included.

Crimson Angel looks on an attractive enough mark in the 6f handicap for fillies (8.00), and she is chosen alongside the consistent Incrimination in a bid to knock out some of the more fancied runners.

Ashariba is a strong fancy in the 1m3f handicap (8.30) and should be able to confirm her earlier Chelmsford form with Historic City.
