In good hands and could improve now handicapping for the first time.
LTO Selection:

16:30 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Rising Force won here when wearing a first-time hood in September and hasn't been disgraced in two starts since, suggesting he could have some say in the finish. Hope Joanna has shown some ability despite failing to handle the heavy ground at Redcar, and she could go well on her nursery debut, but a chance is taken on GREGORINA. Her Newcastle third may be the best form on offer and first-time blinkers may bring her back to that level.

RISING FORCE was unlucky to bump into a big improver on his penultimate start and, having shaped as if still in good form at Kempton since, he remains of interest. Montecristo Gold and Gregorina look most interesting of the opposition.

The way MONTECRISTO GOLD kept on for third over 7f here last time suggested 1m could suit him and he can get off the mark.

Bred for further; likely outsider on debut.
LTO Selection:

17:00 Chelmsford Maiden (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

ROCHELLE failed to justify favouritism on her debut over 7f at Newmarket in September but still shaped with plenty of promise in third and should have learned plenty from that experience. This looks a good opportunity for her to make it second-time lucky, with possibly most to fear from Dusk Dame and Kingmont. Market support for either of those two newcomers would be very interesting, especially the latter whose dam was Listed-placed and won at this venue.

ROCHELLE made a promising start when third in a big-field Newmarket maiden and looks very much the way to go here with improvement on the cards. Newcomers They and Post Rider are interesting and need monitoring in the betting.

This looks a good opportunity for ROCHELLE to build on her promising debut third at Newmarket.

Has trailed home last in a couple of 5f races.
LTO Selection:

17:30 Chelmsford Stakes (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Mick Appleby has been in amongst the winners recently and MARUNA contributed with a Newcastle victory earlier in the month. She travelled well throughout that day so the drop back in trip should not be an issue. David's Diva stayed on strongly when third at Southwell and should go well if getting a strong pace to aim at, though Moon Flight seems a bigger danger on the back of his latest second.

MOON FLIGHT showed the benefit of a hood when runner-up at Newcastle last time and can get off the mark here with the headgear again sported. Tayanna is next on the list on the back of her encouraging debut sixth, with Newcastle scorer Maruna and the returning David's Diva also in the mix.

The wind tweak may well enable ROGUE THUNDER to show some progress and get off the mark. David's Diva is second choice.

Has gained last three wins over 6f; others may see this race out better.
LTO Selection:

18:00 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Revolutionise was a model of consistency earlier in the year, as he hasn't finished out of the top three in his last five starts, and should go well on his return to action. However, the vote goes to HOT CHESNUT, who was a close-up fourth in a class 3 event at Newmarket last month and she was only raised 1lb for that effort. The daughter of Camacho struck over C&D in June and could be the one to beat. G'daay completes the shortlist.

RIOT is on a handy mark and finished to good effect behind Sir Oliver at Lingfield last week, so he's fancied to reverse form with that rival, who is also respected. Engelbert is less exposed than the aforementioned pair, so he warrants interest, too.

Fresh following an absence, this may prove the time to catch REVOLUTIONISE. Riot is feared most.

LTO Selection:

18:30 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Poetic Jack put in a solid effort to hit the frame over C&D last month and he has to be respected off the same mark. However, preference is for BRAZEN ARROW, who was far from disgraced in third over C&D last week and is now competing off a 1lb lower rating. The five-year-old looks ready to strike, while Little Red Dancer was third in a bunched finish at Newcastle recently and is another to note.

INTOXICATA is improving quickly and is taken to make it 3 wins from her last 4 outings. Poetic Jack is still lightly raced enough to think he may have an even bigger effort in his locker, while Last Date is going through a good spell at the moment and ought to remain competitive.

In-form INTOXICATA holds particularly strong claims back over 7f turned out quickly. Poetic Jack is second choice.

LTO Selection:

19:00 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

This looks like an open contest, so marginal preference is for ADACE, who finished a close-up third over a mile here earlier in the month and she has been left on the same mark. The daughter of Adaay ought to go very close. Pontius failed to justify favouritism over C&D in August, but still put in a pleasing display to hit the frame and has to be considered. Outreach and Safe Passage are others to watch out for.

OUTREACH posted his best effort yet when going close at Wolverhampton last month and is taken to open his account off an unchanged mark. Next on the list is Adace, who was beaten less than a length into third over a mile here last time and shouldn't be inconvenienced by this drop back in trip. College Wizard and Fast Flo both make some each-way appeal, while Pontius would be a serious threat if resuming from a 15-month absence in top form.

Having gone close to winning his latest race, OUTREACH may be ready to strike. Indie Skies is feared most.

LTO Selection:

19:30 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

In an open event, a chance can be taken on TYGER BAY. Conrad Allen's charge, who is now 8lb below his last winning mark, was not disgraced in a sprint series qualifier at Kempton last month and must hold solid claims on that form. The unexposed Maxzeno, who is distantly related to smart sprinter Danzeno, ought to prove better than his current mark and must enter calculations. Others to note include Habooba and Impeach.

MAXZENO is leniently treated and shaped well from a poor position at Newmarket 13 days ago, so he's worth chancing having his first go on polytrack (good efforts both outings on tapeta). Belle Fourche is very much of interest on the back of an excusable run and Tyger Bay isn't without hope dropping in grade.

The vote goes the way of MAXZENO who shaped quite well when fourth over 5f at Newmarket recently and is another 2lb lower here.

LTO Selection:

20:00 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

The vote goes to DARLO PRIDE, who has been a model of consistency in recent starts. The son of Outstrip, a course winner on his penultimate outing, is able to compete off an unchanged mark having hit the woodwork at Lingfield last time, and the first-time visor could bring about further improvement. Q Twenty Boy and Lion Ring also arrive in good form and are taken seriously.

Plenty with claims here including DARLO PRIDE, who has upped his game in recent starts and remains on a workable mark. He gets the nod. Sparked and Lion Ring rate the principal dangers.

Solid DARLO PRIDE (nap) hasn't finished out of the first two in his last four runs and may well be able to get his head back in front.

LTO Selection:

20:30 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

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

CRYPTOS DREAM has been in excellent form since coming over from Ireland in August, winning three of her last four starts. Jack Jones' filly has a 5lb penalty to contend with, but that might not be enough to stop her. Egoiste could mount another stern challenge, having struck over C&D in September, though a wide draw is far from ideal. Stintino Sunset, Duveen and Silver Bubble are just a few others to take into consideration.

CRYPTOS DREAM has done really well for her new yard and proved better than ever when winning here last week. She may be able to score again. Silver Bubble and Egoiste head the list of dangers.

Silver Bubble has a strong form chance but her draw could be awkward so she's taken on with the thriving CRYPTOS DREAM.

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.
