UK Horse Racing Tips: Chelmsford City

TODAY POWER is edging ever closer towards the winner's enclosure and even though he has let favourite-backers down the last twice and is 3lb higher than for his latest Lingfield second, he can break his duck. The drop from 1m2f will help him and he can confirm his superiority over Golden Fountain, who was behind him at Lingfield but has since gone agonisingly close at Wolverhampton. Union Spirit is interesting on his handicap debut.
Prediction : 1st Today Power 2nd Golden Fountain 3rd Union Spirit

The money poured in for STORMY MOUNTAIN ahead of her Kempton introduction and even though she was turned over, there was lots of encouragement to take from her second to an opponent with experience. Natural improvement is anticipated from the Godolphin filly, and she should make it second time lucky. Cuckoo Clock also filled the runner-up berth on her debut and is the logical danger, although Dame Joan did show promise at Kempton.
Prediction : 1st Stormy Mountain 2nd Cuckoo Clock 3rd Dame Joan

Arctic Sound was the best part of three lengths in front of Pivoine when they took minor honours behind the impressive Global Giant in a conditions event at Wolverhampton, and should confirm that superiority on 5lb better terms. He was well beaten at Newcastle on his last start in handicap company, though, so perhaps VICTORY BOND is the better option because he seldom runs a bad race and will appreciate the slight rise in distance. Furzig isn't out of it either.
Prediction : 1st Victory Bond 2nd Arctic Sound 3rd Pivoine

WINDSORLOT made it two wins in his last three when running on well late on to score at Wolverhampton earlier this month and Tony Carroll's seven-year-old rates as the one to beat here. Course-and-distance winner Cash N Carrie wasn't beaten far here when last seen and has to come into calculations, while Irish raider Newgirlintown makes plenty of appeal having placed when stepping up in trip at Dundalk last time. Kempton third Officer Drivel and Castelo are others to note.
Prediction : 1st Windsorlot 2nd Cash N Carrie 3rd Newgirlintown

TIME TO STRIKE opened her account with a comfortable victory over C&D and David Simcock's 70,000gns Muhaarar filly could have plenty more to come now joining the handicap ranks, with Jamie Spencer returning to the saddle. Batchelor Boy arrives following back-to-back Wolverhampton victories, while Waddat is another hat-trick seeker to keep onside. It'smabirthday and recent winner Mount Mogan are handicap newcomers to keep an eye on in a trappy little affair.
Prediction : 1st Time To Strike 2nd Batchelor Boy 3rd Mount Mogan

Restless Rose got the better of VERNE CASTLE when they met over C&D last month but with the latter getting on the scoresheet himself since, Michael Wigham's seven-year-old looks primed to turn the tables here. The consistent Six Strings commands plenty of respect dropping back to the minimum distance, while it is foolish to rule out track-and-trip winner You're Cool on his first start for Derek Shaw.
Prediction : 1st Verne Castle 2nd Restless Rose 3rd Six Strings
