12:45 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

STAY SMART ran with credit when third at Wolverhampton last month and the handicapper has dropped him 1lb for that effort. The five-year-old makes only his second start for the Mark Loughnane stable and could get his head back in front. Triple Jaye has hit the frame on each of her last two outings and could go well once again, while Josies Kid is another to consider after his third over C&D last time.

If the cards call kinder for STAY SMART than at Wolverhampton last month he looks capable of striking at the second time of asking for his new stable. Josies Kid arrives in good form and is second choice ahead of Street Parade.

13:20 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

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

THANK THE LORD (second) had Mehmo (third) two lengths behind over 5f here earlier in the month and a 2lb rise for that display may not be enough to prevent him from going one better. As for the latter, he could get closer on this occasion on slightly better terms, while Phoenix Star completes the shortlist after his runner-up effort at Newcastle last time.

PHOENIX STAR and Tommie Jakes combined to score twice at Newcastle in September and might be up to landing another win together here with the Jessica Macey team continuing in form. Thank The Lord went close over 5f here last week and should go well again. Northern-raider Langholm is making a very belated AW debut but he is more than capable off his current mark.

13:55 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Ravenglass was touched off by just under a length when second over 7f at Wolverhampton on his latest outing and it would be no surprise to see him figure off the same mark. However, preference is for WADACRE GRACE, who is in good form at present and hit the frame over an extended mile at Wolverhampton earlier in the week. Semser makes his return to the all-weather and is another to note.

HEADINGLEY showed plenty on his comeback at Wolverhampton and this 3-time C&D winner is sure to go well if building on that. Ravenglass looks the big danger.

14:30 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Cryptos Dream won more cosily than the winning distance of a neck might suggest over 1m2f at Brighton last time but, having been raised 4lb in the ratings for that success, she may be susceptible to MENG TIAN. Sean Woods' charge has been dropped 1lb after a close third over C&D last time and he can get his head in front for the first time since March 2022. Hellavapace heads the remainder.

MENG TIAN has edged down to a workable mark and returned to form when third in a slightly-stronger handicap over C&D a fortnight ago. He gets the vote over Brighton-winner Cryptos Dream and Hellavapace.

The one heading in the right direction is CRYPTOS DREAM, who has done well since joining Jack Jones.

15:03 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

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

An open field sees plenty arrive here with solid claims but the most compelling case is made by BROAD APPEAL. The nine-year-old was beaten under a length over 1m4f at Brighton last time and, having been dropped 1lb in the ratings, he could be a tough nut to crack. Sunset In Paris also appears primed to offer a bold bid after an encouraging effort over C&D last time, while Star For A Day can also go well.

SUNSET IN PARIS continues to shape as if he's got more ability than he's been able to show thus far so John Jenkins' 5-y-o gets the nod to break his duck with Kieran Shoemark on board for the first time. Silver Bubble has dropped to a career-low mark so she could be the one to give the selection most to think about, with Crazy Maisie and Broad Appeal another couple fancied to go well.

15:37 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 14f Race Class Flow

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

PERIPETEIA finished a creditable third over an extended 1m4f at Newcastle last time, having won over this distance on her penultimate outing. Philip Kirby's charge is fancied to regain the winning thread back over further, while Big Jimbo, who kept on into second at Kempton last month, could improve for the fitting of first-time cheekpieces. Manyana has been consistent in her most recent starts and is another to consider.

A tightly-knit handicap in which Gary Moore's BIG JUMBO edges the vote given he can race off the same mark as when a very good recent Kempton second. Peripeteia arrives in good nick and can boast a course win too so rates the chief threat ahead of in-form duo Manyana and Shadowfax.

16:08 Chelmsford Maiden (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Soft ground might not have suited WONDER KID, who was well found in the market ahead of his racecourse debut last month. A half-brother to the multiple all-weather winner Bavardages, he may improve now switched to an artificial surface and the son of Belardo shades preference. Super Saiyan makes plenty of appeal on paper and he warrants a market check, while Duke's Command and Dubawi Time are also worth considering.

DUKE'S COMMAND is bred in the purple and showed plenty of ability on his Newmarket debut in September. He should have learnt plenty from that and can open his account here. The chief threat may well come from the newcomers with Super Saiyan and Parkland both making appeal on pedigree.

It was a much improved effort from MAGNUM OPUS at Salisbury and he's better drawn than Duke's Command and Dubawi Time.
