LTO Selection:

17:20 Chelmsford Maiden (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

LADY AVA kept on well for third over this trip at Windsor last month and Ed Dunlop's charge is taken to transfer that form to the all-weather. However, the booking of Oisin Murphy for Persian Phoenix makes her of interest and the daughter of Phoenix Of Spain can give the selection plenty to think about. Vice Captain is another to bear in mind.

A tricky maiden with SCARLET ROSIE chanced first time up for George Boughey before market clues. Lady Ava can build on her first run at Windsor and is respected. Elegant Elloise is another to note for a yard that has enjoyed plenty of success with newcomers this term.

Persian Phoenix can improve on her debut effort but so can LADY AVA and she can make it second time lucky.

33-1, slowly away and offered little short-term promise on last month's Windsor debut (6f).
LTO Selection:

17:50 Chelmsford Maiden (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

This could go the way of GUNS AND FLOWERS, who makes her stable debut for Alice Haynes following a fair fourth at Dundalk when trained by Adrian Murray. She left the impression there would be more to come up in trip and can get the better of the progressive Mistress Teite, who makes her all-weather debut following a creditable fourth at Windsor. Coastal Sunrise is another to consider.

GUNS AND FLOWERS showed enough in 2 runs in Ireland to suggest she could have a small race in her and she's taken to make a winning start for Alice Haynes. Mini Magna and Cigar Five Hundred are a couple of interesting newcomers.

Money for a newcomer would look significant but COASTAL SUNRISE appeals as the type to take a big step forward on her second run.

Queen Of Fairies

4.5
4.5/1(-50%)
(2) Queen Of Fairies 4.5/1, Looked good prospect when winning at Southwell on debut. After 5 months off, only 13¾ lengths fifth of 9 to Running Lion in listed race at Newmarket (10f, soft, 11/4) 32 days ago. Remains with potential.

(5) Cracked Up 100/1, Hooded for debut, went with little fluency when sixth of 7 in minor event at Wetherby (10f, good to soft, 33/1) 39 days ago. Looks one for the longer term.
Made no impact at Wetherby on debut; may need more experience.

28

Showed ability in 1m maidens in April; bred to be suited by this longer trip.
LTO Selection:

18:20 Chelmsford Stakes (Class 2) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Opera Forever sports a first-time hood following a game win at Newbury when last seen in October, but she has to shoulder a 7lb penalty for that success, so CHERRY shades the vote. The daughter of Dubawi is related to several nice types, and her dam was Group 2-placed at Royal Ascot during her career. Red Danielle was only narrowly denied at Goodwood last month and also merits consideration.

Entered in the Ribblesdale at Royal Ascot, RED DANIELLE shaped very encouragingly when runner-up at Goodwood 12 days ago and, with plenty of improvement to come, she can get off the mark at the second attempt. Heading the list of dangers is Queen of Fairies who is worth another chance to build on her debut success, with Cherry and Opera Forever others who merit consideration.

This looks a competitive affair but the filly with the best credentials is RED DANIELLE. Second choice is Queen Of Fairies.

LTO Selection:

18:50 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

MORE THAN A GREY, who swaps cheekpieces for first-time blinkers, appeals at this level and, reunited with Neil Callan, he could provide a bit of value in his bid for a breakthrough success. The handicapper has given the three-year-old every chance from a basement rating and, having acted well on the Polytrack at Kempton last time, the surface holds no fears. Old rival Captain Wentworth is also respected but the improving Inverinate might be more of a threat.

INVERINATE chased home a rejuvenated rival at Lingfield last week and shouldn't need to improve on that effort to get off the mark here. Captain Wentworth didn't get a clear run at Kempton last time but moved through the race smoothly enough and he may well be able to build on that, whilst Midnight Flame boasts the eye-catching booking of Oisin Murphy.

Lingfield runner-up INVERINATE is taken to go one better turned out quickly. Captain Wentworth is second choice.

(11) Lucky Fifteen 4.5/1, Promising individual. 11/4, much improved second of 17 in handicap at Newbury (10f, good) 20 days ago, unlucky to bump into one. 3 lb rise shouldn't prevent a bold showing with further progress on the cards.

Gradual improvement in maiden/novice company; improvement can be expected now up in trip.

Stayed on over 1m on handicap debut; more needed but the longer trip can help.

Won 2 of his last 3, the latest over C&D; up in class but could still have more to come.

Dabbous

18/1(-64%)
(10) Dabbous 18/1, C&D winner in April and quickly dispelled lesser effort on turf when neck second of 8 to You Saw Brigadoon in handicap at this C&D 35 days ago, staying on.
C&D winner in April; close 2nd to You Saw Brigadoon here latest; needs more progress.
LTO Selection:

19:20 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

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

You Saw Brigadoon has done well since upped in trip after joining Stuart Williams and, having won over C&D last month, he is respected off just 3lb higher. However, DABBOUS, who was just a neck away in second that day, looks a good bet to turn that form around on these revised terms. This does looks a slightly deeper race and the likes of Kodiman and Flame Of Kodiac are also taken seriously.

LUCKY FIFTEEN showed much-improved form when runner-up on handicap debut at Newbury (10f) 3 weeks ago, unlucky to bump into one but nicely clear of the remainder. Open to further progress, he earns the vote to open his account from a 3 lb higher mark. Kodiman, another low-mileage sort, shaped well at Wolverhampton recently and is feared, along with Dabbous and You Saw Brigadoon.

Covert Legend and PENZANCE look likely improvers now handicapping over a new trip. The latter is marginally preferred.

2 turf wins over shorter; promising start to 2023 but form dipped latest; O Murphy booked.
LTO Selection:

19:50 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 14f Race Class Flow

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

Savoy Brown exploited a good opportunity to win a classified stakes at Lingfield in March and is highly respected back in a handicap off a competitive mark. However, his two previous visits to this circuit yielded little in return and he may be worth taking on over this longer trip. The more proven stayer DAS KAPITAL is more appealing on these terms, especially with the in-form Oisin Murphy booked for the ride. Dereham is also considered.

Most of these arrive with a question mark against them so SAVOY BROWN is taken to follow up his cosy Lingfield success back in handicap company. Prince Abu is weighted to have a big say if on his A-game, with Dereham another who enters calculations if, as expected, building on his reappearance Pontefract fifth.

Most of these have something to prove but CAPRICORN PRINCE is a regular winner and he's preferred to Prince Abu.

3-7 in France last season; low-key stable/British debut 12 days ago; others look safer.
LTO Selection:

20:20 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 2) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

In an open event, in might be worth taking a chance on SELWAN. A winner on the all-weather when trained in France, he made a low-key stable debut, finishing down the field at Goodwood 12 days ago, but is entitled to take a step forward. The lightly-raced son of Zelzal could be far more potent back on an artificial surface, while Groundbreaker continues to run well in defeat and is considered, along with Misty Dancer.

Having run well in listed company last summer, GROUNDBREAKER made an encouraging return having been gelded when fourth in a Chester handicap in May and he can build on that to get back to winning ways. White Wolf could also still have more to offer in handicaps and is feared most, ahead of Misty Dancer.

The return to AW can see WHITE WOLF resume winning ways. Dangers abound, with Sun King perhaps the one to chase the selection home.

Good strike-rate at this venue and latest form has been franked; sure to run well.
LTO Selection:

20:50 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Anificas Beauty came up short in her hat-trick bid last month, but Gary Moore's filly remains of interest off just 2lb higher. Recent Yarmouth scorer Invested, a course winner on her second start, could find further improvement in first-time cheekpieces and merits the utmost respect, though the vote goes to BELL SONG. The daughter of Saxon Warrior showed a fair level of ability in her three qualifying runs and ought to be capable of better now pitched into handicaps.

INVESTED broke her maiden here in February and got up close home at Yarmouth to make a successful switch to handicaps last time. She is only 1 lb higher in the weights here, so gets the nod ahead of Andrew Balding's handicap newcomer Bell Song. Topo Chico and the thriving Anificas Beauty are also respected.

Preference is for KYNSA (nap), who showed improved form on her second start and looks on a good mark for this handicap debut.

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.
