SEASIDE ROCK won a shade cosily when beating today's rival and previous Kempton winner Royal Caper at the same track last week. An apprentice's claim negates a big chunk of a 6lb penalty and Richard Hannon's colt can follow-up. Bubbly Bailey passed the post first over C&D a week ago but was demoted to second having hampered Roman Order. He'll need to keep a straighter line today while recent 6f winner My Sweet Lord should stay today's extra distance and makes more appeal than both Blazeofenchantment and Darkest Night. The latter pair filled the places at Wolverhampton last time without either looking like winning.
