TEN MEETINGS in Britain today could leave punters feeling similar to Billy Hardy after Naseem Hamed's blitz on Saturday night. The key is to concentrate on a handful of races and Kempton's televised card is the obvious target.

In the highlight £25,000-added Jubilee Handicap, the question is whether to give Alhawa another chance after he failed to deliver the goods at Sandown 10 days ago.

Sent off 9 to 4 favourite on his first run for Peg Akehurst, the four-year-old didn't enjoy the best of runs before finishing around two lengths fourth to Star Talent. He may well reverse the form with the winner and third-placed Star Manager but will be poor value.

Gold Spats is a more interesting proposition. From the bang in-form yard of Michael Stoute, the four-year-old is the type to go on and make an impact this year.

Unraced at two, Gold Spats won his maiden in good style, beating subsequent winner Wlmi Elmak two lengths at Kempton in June.

After missing most of the summer, he came back to contest hot handicaps at York and Ascot, where he failed to make an impact without being disgraced. Gold Spats has been given time to develop and could be the blot on the handicap here.

Renzo is suggested in the Saxon House Handicap. Amanda Perrett's four-year-old has a very solid piece of form to his name, namely when under four lengths third to Time Allowed at Kempton in July, with Canon Can back in fourth.

He didn't quite live up to that subsequently although he was rather fortuitously awarded a race at Redcar on his final start. However, Renzo has the potential to progress this year if he takes his thinking cap off.

The Godolphin bandwagon is rolling again and Bint Baladee can gain a deserved success in division two of the Stanley Racing Maiden Fillies' Stakes.

Henry Cecil's Shaheen, who shaped well on his Nottingham debut, should open his account in the Windsor Park Maiden Stakes.
