None of Rizzel's selections were able to win on Tuesday but I think he can feel a bit hard done by in not coming away with at least one winner.
My Kiwi Girl was backed into favourite throughout the day and when entering the home straight looked as if she was going to run away with things. Unfortunately, the gas tank emptied and emptied fast as her effort dwindled out before finishing 6L back in second place.
Rizzel's other selection was Gaillimh A Stor who was off the bridle a fair way from home but stayed on strongly when entering the last couple of furlongs. Gaillimh A Stor went through the gaps but was beaten by a neck on the line which was unfortunate as I felt at the time he was going to power through and get up on the line.

Kiniro 2/1 – Kempton 7.30
There are only three meetings on offer for punters on Wednesday throughout the UK and Ireland, with two of them coming on the AW at Lingfield and Kempton and the other being a jumps meeting at Catterick.
Little caught my eye from Lingfield and Catterick so I opted for the evening meeting at Kempton in which Harry Charlton's Kiniro looks a decent bet at 2/1.
If you are a long-term follower of this thread you'll know I'm more of a flat man than jumps, and if you followed during last year's flat season you'll know I was a big follower of the Harry Charlton yard. They did me a good turn on multiple occasions when tipping up on their horses and I hoping their handicap debutant Kiniro can get the job done for us on Wednesday evening.
Harry Charlton hasn't had many runners this month ( 4 in total ) and Kiniro was the only horse to win for him during that time. My selection was last seen turning over Richard Hannons 1/6 shot Left Over Love at Lingfield two weeks ago. It was A shock result in regards to how the market was priced out but it was certainly no fluke as Kiniro ran on strongly to get up on the line by a neck.
Kiniro makes his handicap debut in this contest with a mark of 79 which I think potentially underestimates his ability. Kiniro has only raced three times during his career and despite being underwhelming on his first two outings I think his win over Left Over Love is only the start of this gelding improving. I thought he had a bit in hand over Left Over Love on that occasion, which may sound a bit silly given the winning margin was only a neck but it took a while for the penny to drop and he looked a tad awkward in running. Connections have opted to up Kiniro in trip from 6f to 7f, which I think is the right move and could potentially ease out more from this unexposed three year old.
