1st (1) Liseo (3.33/1 +17%)
Liseo

3.33
3.33/1(+17%)
(1) Liseo 3.33/1, Ran up to best when second of 3 in maiden at Lingfield (9f, good) 18 days ago, having run of race. Good second from this mark on last handicap outing and he's not ruled out.
Losing sequence now 11 but consistent and threatened off this mark before.

2nd (2) Tessy Lad (8.5/1 -6%)
Tessy Lad

8.5
8.5/1(-6%)
(2) Tessy Lad 8.5/1, Likeable sort got back to winning ways (dead-heated) when at Newbury in June but found life tougher back up in trip when seventh of 9 in handicap at Epsom (12f, good) 59 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.
Dead-heated at Newbury and perhaps Epsom didn't suit him last time.

3rd (10) Kodiman (7/1 -27%)
Kodiman

7
7/1(-27%)
(10) Kodiman 7/1, Best effort when third at Lingfield (10f, good to firm) on penultimate start. Had blindfold removed late when sixth of 10 in handicap at Newmarket (10f, good to soft) 42 days ago. Remains with potential and is expected to be bang there.
The best of his seven runs was on debut when runner-up on Tapeta; unconvincing.

Masqool

11/1(+31%)
(3) Masqool 11/1, Won under this pilot at Nottingham in May. Bit below form sixth of 14 in handicap (10/1) at Kempton (8f) 80 days ago. Back up in trip. Not ruled out if able to bounce back.
Never dangerous back over 1m at Kempton but that's readily forgiven.

5th (5) At Liberty (16/1 -78%)
At Liberty

16
16/1(-78%)
(5) At Liberty 16/1, Latest win at Haydock in June. 9/2, creditable sixth of 10 in handicap at Beverley (9.9f, good to firm) 17 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.
Close to June's winning mark and didn't enjoy the clearest of runs last time at Beverley.
6
6th (6) Red Treasure (6/1 -50%)
Red Treasure

6
6/1(-50%)
(6) Red Treasure 6/1, Made winning start in handicaps at Yarmouth. 13/2, looked rusty when sixth of 10 at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm) 16 days ago, merely closing up late. Yet to fully prove herself at the trip, so others make more appeal.
Reasonable to excuse her two defeats since a successful return at Yarmouth.
7
7th (7) Centre Court (12/1 +0%)
Centre Court

12
12/1(+0%)
(7) Centre Court 12/1, Latest win at Newcastle in April. Patchy form since, only sixth of 7 in handicap at Hamilton (9.2f, good to soft) 8 days ago. Now below last winning mark.
Good and bad since making all off 1lb higher at Newcastle back in the spring (1m).

8th (4) Lion's Dream (4.5/1 +44%)
Lion's Dream

4.5
4.5/1(+44%)
(4) Lion's Dream 4.5/1, Unreliable type. C&D winner. 16/1, bit below form eighth of 13 in handicap at Thirsk (8f, good to soft) 15 days ago, carrying head awkwardly. Up in trip. Chance on old form but recent efforts have been underwhelming.
Has pulled or hung on all starts this turf season and isn't the easiest of rides.

9th (8) Bravura (6.5/1 +7%)
Bravura

6.5
6.5/1(+7%)
(8) Bravura 6.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Went with little fluenct when last of 4 in handicap (11/8) at Bath (13f, firm) 66 days ago. Down in trip. Others have achieved more.
Comfortably held in two small-field handicaps (1m4f/1m5f) when favourite for both.
9
10th (9) One For The Frog (40/1 +20%)
One For The Frog

40
40/1(+20%)
(9) One For The Frog 40/1, Winner at Wolverhampton in April. 50/1, ninth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 12 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Struggling for form at present and others are more persuasive.
Novice winner; hasn't progressed in handicaps and more new headgear tried now.
LTO Selection:

17:15 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

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

A very competitive event but a chance is taken on Sir Mark Prescott's BRAVURA, who has been a beaten favourite on his last two starts but this drop in trip could be the perfect tonic. The three-year-old is now 2lb lower in the ratings than when last seen and that could bring out some improvement. Liseo is feared most after back-to-back seconds, while Red Treasure and Tessy Lad head the remainder.

KODIMAN is in better heart than recent form figures suggest and is fancied to get off the mark with further improvement still a distinct possibility for Roger Varian's 3yo. Liseo arrives after a pair of decent efforts in defeat, albeit in a 3-runner race last time, and can get involved, whilst Tessy Lad is the type to bounce back to form quickly after a poor effort at Epsom last time.

A chance is taken on RED TREASURE who hasn't had everything go her way since winning first time back.

(2) Kurimu 20/1, Twice-raced maiden. 20/1, sixth of 12 in minor event at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 20 days ago. Yard also saddles Clueless.
Two runs have both offered hope of better but such progress is necessary on AW debut.

(6) Unico 8/1, Once-raced maiden. Sixth of 13 in maiden at Windsor (6f, good, 18/1) on debut 26 days ago. That experience won't be wasted on her and better expected here.
Behind a couple of these at Windsor on debut; can do better but she needs to.

2.5/1(+9%)
(5) Miss Anya 2.5/1, Twice-raced maiden. 7/1, second of 13 in maiden at Windsor (6f, good) 26 days ago, suited by drop in trip. Should be in the mix.
Improved 2nd at Windsor last time (closely matched with May); solid form contender.

Kandoo

1.38
1.38/1(+15%)
(1) Kandoo 1.38/1, Fair filly. 9/4 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 12-runner maiden at Bath (5.7f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Likely to make a bold bid, provided she's able to back that up now returned to the AW for the first time since her debut in March.
Ready front-running win at Bath two weeks ago (5.5f); well drawn to attack; solid claims.
4
4th (4) May (3.5/1 +13%)
May

3.5
3.5/1(+13%)
(4) May 3.5/1, 16/1, third of 13 in maiden at Windsor (6f, good) on debut 26 days ago, running on. Open to progress and one to consider with top apprentice Billy Loughnane booked.
Encouraging 3rd at Windsor on debut; should be capable of better; good apprentice booked.

Majorelle Blue

50
50/1(-100%)
(3) Majorelle Blue 50/1, Foaled April 28. 30,000 gns yearling, Camacho filly. Half-sister to winners abroad by Pour Moi and Mukhadram. Yard isn't a frequent source of winning newcomers but interesting to see what the market has to say.
30,000gns half-sister to two winners; drawn widest; likely best watched.

6th (11) Twilight Melody (66/1 -32%)
Twilight Melody

66
66/1(-32%)
(11) Twilight Melody 66/1, Foaled April 5. Outstrip filly. Dam maiden (stayed 6f). Entitled to come on for the run.
Some good sprinters in the family and she's worth a market check at this level.

Someone Like You

50
50/1(+0%)
(9) Someone Like You 50/1, Twice-raced maiden. 150/1, sixth of 11 in minor event at Windsor (6f, good) 19 days ago. Probably more one for handicaps in due course.
Second run better than her first but she'll need another jolt of improvement to win.
7
8th (7) Bella Grazia (20/1 -25%)
Bella Grazia

20
20/1(-25%)
(7) Bella Grazia 20/1, Foaled March 21. 10,000 gns yearling, Sea The Moon filly. Half-sister to winners abroad by Toronado and Zoffany. Dam, 1½m winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 12.5f (stayed 14.6f) Ventura Storm. Will probably need more time and distance.
Half-sister to a 6f winner but her pedigree indicates middle distances will suit in time.
10
9th (10) Tara Atacama (80/1 -142%)
Tara Atacama

80
80/1(-142%)
(10) Tara Atacama 80/1, Once-raced maiden. 20/1, 16½ lengths tenth of 12 to Kandoo in maiden at Bath (5.7f, good to soft) on debut 14 days ago. Sizeable step forward needed here.
20-1, slowly away and never threatened behind Kandoo on her debut two weeks ago.
LTO Selection:

17:45 Chelmsford Stakes (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

KANDOO was a comfortable winner over an extended 5f at Bath last month and she is likely to offer another bold bid here. Archie Watson's charge shaped as if this extra yardage wouldn't be an issue when scoring by three lengths on that occasion. Miss Anya could be the main threat after a very good second over 6f at Windsor and she appears likely to improve as a result of that experience, while May should also be thereabouts.

MAY shaped well when third on debut at Windsor last month and may find the necessary improvement to emerge on top here with top apprentice Billy Loughnane claiming 3 lb. She was around 3 lengths adrift of the re-opposing runner-up, Miss Anya, but that rival had the benefit of previous experience whereas it'll be more of a level playing field this time. Kandoo opened her account in good style at Bath and rates the main danger ahead of Miss Anya and probable improver Unico.

No match for winner when second in recent 5f novice; up in trip for nursery/AW debut.
LTO Selection:

18:15 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

MONKS MEAD has made a very pleasing start to his handicap career and this looks like a good opportunity to get his head back in front. Mark Usher's charge was only beaten half a length last time over 6f at Windsor and he can defy a 3lb rise. Goldmine Girl appears to be the biggest danger on her nursery debut, while Mist Of Lir and Lucy Lockett could also feature.

MONKS MEAD proved that his Lingfield success was no fluke when finding just one too strong at Windsor where he had a handful of these rivals behind. Mark Usher's charge is marginally preferred to Goldmine Girl, who took a step forward when second at Pontefract and has been handed a fair-looking opening mark. Mist of Lir is best of the rest.

The most obvious answer is MONKS MEAD, who followed his huge-odds 7f win in July with a good 6f second last month.

(4) Call Glory 3/1, Goodwood winner (5f) in June who resumed progress when ¾-length second of 10 to Two Tribes in nursery at Sandown (5f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Likely to make presence felt on polytrack debut.

5/1(-166%)
(3) Grey Gray 5/1, Arrives in top form, winning 3 of her last 4 starts, latest a 5-runner nursery over C&D (13/8) 25 days ago, readily. 5 lb higher mark may not prevent further success.
Three wins from last four starts, including C&D nursery 25 days ago; up in grade today.
LTO Selection:

18:45 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

GREY GRAY has been in outstanding form of late, winning twice last month, and a 5lb rise for her most recent win over course and distance may not be enough to prevent her from landing the hat-trick. Ed Dunlop's filly may have to much for Two Tribes, who got the better of Call Glory when they met at Sandown last month. Cuban Secret should not be underestimated either.

This can go to GREY GRAY, who left the impression there was more to come when registering her third victory here last month. Two Tribes is feared most in a very open contest.

Course specialist who returns to the track on a fair mark; hood added; tricky draw.
LTO Selection:

19:15 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

MUSICAL TRIBUTE has been knocking on the door of late and this looks like a good opportunity to get off the mark at the seventh time of asking. The daughter of Acclamation may improve for the application of first-time blinkers and she may have too much for the likes of Flying Kiss and Shot, who has been a revelation since joining the Jack Jones stable. Others to note are Rhythmic Acclaim and American Rose.

MUSICAL TRIBUTE has few miles on the clock and she's bred to be better than she's shown to date, so she's worth chancing back down in trip with blinkers applied. Song of Success was doing some good late work at Yarmouth last time and she's considered the main danger ahead of Fifty Year Storm.

Shot can go well for an in-form yard but MUSICAL TRIBUTE has been threatening and the new blinkers can spark something extra.

(6) Who Loves You Baby 4/1, Good second of 9 in handicap at Yarmouth (11.5f, good to firm, 13/2) 23 days ago, suited by strong pace. Makes polytrack debut. Can make presence felt.
Ran well in defeat on turf last month; upped in trip for AW debut; a possible.

1.38/1(-15%)
(2) Club Manager 1.38/1, Well-bred sort who left previous form well behind when running out an easy winner at Kempton last time. Should go on improving for a while, so well capable of following up.
Stayed on well for 1m4f Kempton win last month and has scope for further progress.

(7) Expert Bear 28/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 250/1, tenth of 13 in maiden at this course (8f) 39 days ago. Upped to a trip that she's bred to be suited by on handicap debut, so well worth a market check.
Well beaten in her three qualifying runs but today's longer trip can unlock improvement.

19:45 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 13f Race Class Flow

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

CLUB MANAGER kept on strongly over 1m4f to record his first career success on his handicap bow at Kempton last month. The son of Nathaniel could improve further and a 4lb rise in the ratings may underestimate him. Artisan Dancer struck by a length at Southwell last time and should be considered off a 4lb higher rating, while any market support for Gino's Girl on her first time in a handicap would be interesting.

CLUB MANAGER had loads in hand when off the mark at Kempton last time and he's bred to go on progressing for a good while, so he's a confident choice to follow up at the likely expense of Artisan Dancer. Who Loves You Baby should also be on the premises having returned to form at Yarmouth recently.

Yet to shine for new yard after an absence; revival likely to be predicted by the betting.
LTO Selection:

20:15 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

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

TAHITIAN PRINCE did well in the circumstances to finish third over 7f at Kempton last time, as he met with trouble in running, and the son of Siyouni looks ready to capitalise on his 1lb lower mark here. Finery had Last Hoorah (third) behind when victorious by a length and half over C&D last time and she can confirm that form. Shoot To Kill edges out Roman Dynasty to best of the rest.

None of these can be safely ruled out but TAHITIAN PRINCE has slipped to a handy mark and signalled he is ready to go in again when a good Kempton third last time so edges the vote. Finery is feared most in her attempt to bag a fifth C&D success, with Super Den and Roman Dynasty also in the mix.

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.
