Couple of tough draws since switched to a visor from cheekpieces, finishing second on his side of the course at Lingfield back on turf last time; that was a decent effort in the circumstances and he should go well. |

9st 8lb |
Not straightforward and was tailed off after missing the break at Ffos Las last month but he won by 4l there (6f, heavy) on his penultimate start; has claims if he can recapture that form and he has won off a higher mark in the past. |

9st 5lb |
Not straightforward but he has more ability than his mark and his last two wins have been emphatic ones, latterly a near-5l success over 6f here 19 days ago (heavy; first time accessories); that form has been boosted by the reopposing Diamondsinthesand and a 5lb rise still leaves him lower than when running away with an Epsom handicap last summer (7f, good to soft); 5f asks a different question of him but his stamina will be an asset and they are likely to go hard. |

Didn't see out 8.7f here from a wide stall last time (switched from cheekpieces to blinkers); he's landed stall 12 again, though, and is an exposed maiden. |

14-race maiden although placed on five occasions including last time when a close second over 7f at Chepstow (good to firm); now tried in blinkers (no improvement when cheekpieces fitted); each-way chance. |

20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Yet to win on turf (0-17) and his 'most recent' AW win was at Wolverhampton (6f) in December 2023; nothing positive to take from his last four starts, including when weakening quickly at Musselburgh (7f; 40-1) three weeks ago. |

All three wins came on AW in 2023 when trained by Richard Fahey; only narrowly denied by The Gay Blade over 6f at Newcastle in February but hasn't been in same form since, including behind that reopposing rival there last week. |

3-36; back to winning ways, clinging on in a similar C&D apprentices' handicap (0-65) on Saturday; the promising Conor Whiteley retains the ride, and she'll be a threat to all if taking her chance again 48 hours on from that success. |

Easy winner of a 1m handicap at Southwell last September when 9lb lower; up and down since and needs to be at her best to take this after 108 days off. |

Still seeking his first win (0-13) and underwhelming since finishing third at Brighton (5.5f classified; 12-1) in June; beaten a neck over this trip on sole previous visit to Chelmsford in January, which does offer hope. |

23rd Jul 2024 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

12-race maiden; kept on well for close second in 5f Chelmsford handicap in January and was placed in this grade at Brighton (5.2f, good to firm) last month, but he was soundly beaten on his last two appearances and can't be supported with much confidence. |

Regressive maiden who's often pulled hard and is having his first run at shy of 1m; was among the favourites here a fortnight ago and is better drawn if the first-time headgear helps. |

0-4, most recently down the field in 7f handicap at this course; seemed to show some promise over C&D in July and is bred to do better yet, being a half-sister to a winner for her owners. |

Triple-figure prices for three runs to date, pulling hard a couple of times despite the hood; is a half-sister to a three-time Tapeta winner and this is easier but would want to see good support back from two months off before considering her. |

Won a Chelmsford novice (7f, Polytrack) for Richard Spencer a year ago and looked to be on the way back on her second start for this yard when third of eight at Chepstow (7f, good) last month, but her two efforts since have been moderate; others appeal more. |

Soft ground may have been behind her latest modest effort; possible to make a case on her two Tapeta runs for Richard Spencer now back in headgear off this mark and a better showing wouldn't surprise. |

Well beaten in a handicap on reappearance in May, before winning a Thirsk seller (6f, good to firm) next time; left Kevin Ryan after being well beaten in a Pontefract handicap next time and was last of seven in a Wolverhampton claimer latest; handy mark if she can be revived. |
