18:30 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Megan Jordan rode the winner of a similar race at Salisbury last weekend and, with her confidence likely to be high, there could be more success on the horizon if Q TWENTY BOY continues to flourish on the back of last month's return to form at Wolverhampton. Due Date and Amaysmont can also go well, but Alfred Cove might pose a bigger threat off 3lb below his last winning mark.

ALFRED COVE looks ready to strike having split a pair of subsequent winners when second at Wolverhampton last time. Amaysmont can fill the runner-up spot again with Due Date and Q Twenty Boy best of the others.

This can go to ALFRED COVE, who ran well at Wolverhampton last time. That form has been franked and he's taken to beat Q Twenty Boy

19:00 Chelmsford Maiden (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Lakota Spirit has displayed promise on each of her two previous starts and is one to monitor closely in the betting for an in-form yard. However, D FLAWLESS, whose dam won a Listed race over this trip, wasn't beaten far by a rival now rated 83 on her debut at Kempton in December and that run sets a decent standard. Highland Lil and Spook are a couple of others to bear in mind.

D FLAWLESS pulled clear of the rest when only just edged out by one with previous experience at Kempton in December so looks the one to beat. Lakota Spirit confirmed debut promise when second at Kempton on her return and is the obvious threat, while Kinematica offered something to work on at Wolverhampton and will be suited by this extra furlong.

Kinematica can improve but this is probably between Lakota Spirit and D FLAWLESS, both of them second on the Kempton Polytrack.

(6) Further Measure 11/4, Course winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2023. 7/2, shaped as if still in form when seventh of 11 in handicap at Southwell (14.1f) 27 days ago. Not the easiest to win with.
Better than bare facts of last run (met trouble) and worth another try over 2m.

19:30 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Wannabe Brave won with something in hand at Wolverhampton 12 days ago and is high on the shortlist off just 4lb higher. Nevertheless, this is a deeper race and, as he has never previously raced at this venue, James Fanshawe's gelding is taken on with proven course winner SMOKEY MALONE. The selection is unexposed over this trip and carrying top-weight might not be enough to prevent a first C&D success. Easy Equation completes the shortlist.

WANNABE BRAVE responded well to capitalise on a reduced mark at Wolverhampton last time and he's still leniently treated on past exploits, so he's preferred to Easy Equation, who was runner-up at Southwell last time. Smokey Malone should also be thereabouts.

There are a few to consider but this could go to WANNABE BRAVE, who returned to winning ways at Wolverhampton last time

Hajara

11/4(+45%)

20:00 Chelmsford Maiden (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

SANT ALESSIO presumably shows plenty at home because he has been sent off favourite on both starts, having to settle for the runner-up spot twice. There has been nothing wrong with his attitude on either occasion, but being gelded should help harness his potential and he can get off the mark on his return. Tabletalk was only beaten a length into third by a good winner on his Kempton debut and has more scope for improvement than Belcamo. Mycoloursoryours is worth a look, while Hajara is an interesting newcomer.

TABLETALK shaped well when third in a novice at Kempton on debut and the form is working out, so he's fancied to open his account at the possible expense of Sant Alessio. Hajara is a noteworthy newcomer for a top yard.

The step up to 1m2f seems sure to suit SANT ALESSIO and David Simcock's runner is taken to beat Tabletalk, who shaped well on debut

20:30 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 4) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Last week's Brighton winner The African Queen is an obvious contender under her penalty, while Marefuori has been knocking on the door. They come up against some interesting handicap debutants, though, not least REACHING HIGH, whose comeback sixth at Windsor gives him an edge in match practice over Crimson Road. Blessed Boy and Primo Lara also have a run under their belts and look fairly treated now into handicap company.

THE AFRICAN QUEEN improved a chunk to make a successful handicap debut at Brighton 9 days ago and, for all that this looks a better race, she's worth a chance to make all. Blessed Boy remains with potential and Reaching High is another one of a few interesting handicap debutants.

It's worth going with MIDNIGHT RUMBLE, who showed improved form on his AW debut in a race that worked out well. This trip should suit

21:00 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

CONQUEST OF POWER has been hit with a 9lb hike for last week's Lingfield triumph so is 4lb well-in under his penalty. He isn't absolutely guaranteed to perform to the same level, but won with so much up his sleeve that he must be stuck with. Heerathetrack and Alexander James took minor honours over C&D recently and are capable of getting involved again. Thomas Equinas excelled at this venue towards the end of his last campaign so has to be considered closely too.

ALEXANDER JAMES shaped well from too far back here last time and he's potentially thrown in on old form, so he's worth taking a chance on in a hope that they go quick enough up front. Mark Usher-trained pair Conquest of Power and Heerathetrack are both formidable opponents.

Mark Usher has a strong hand and can score with recent Lingfield winner CONQUEST OF POWER (nap), who is 4lb well in, despite a penalty

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
