UK Horse Racing Tips: Chelmsford City

DORS TOYBOY has been raised just 1lb for his win at Lingfield over 7f and Harry Burns' 3lb claim could aid his cause further. The four-year-old was only beaten a nose at this track in May, but the nature of his latest win suggests a step up to 1m should suit. Katie's Kitten and Hellavapace have recently been progressive and cannot be ruled out.
Prediction : 1st Dors Toyboy 2nd Katies Kitten 3rd Hellavapace

C&D winner KARIBANA could prove hard to beat if anywhere near his best. He pulled a length-and-a-half clear on his latest outing last month and a 4lb higher mark does not look likely to stop him. Inigo Jones could be better back on the all-weather following a disappointing run at Sandown, while Melody Of Life is another to note having run well at Leicester and Goodwood recently.
Prediction : 1st Karibana 2nd Inigo Jones 3rd Melody Of Life

Mobadra justified favouritism when scoring at Kempton last November, but he has gone up 6lb for that win and, although has shown he can run well fresh, he might not be able to catch BILLY MILL. Rod Milman's charge was only a length behind the winner at Kempton last month, and recorded a good second on his sole outing at this track last October. Final Watch also merits consideration on his return.
Prediction : 1st Billy Mill 2nd Mobadra 3rd Final Watch

In a competitive contest marginal preference is for VULCAN, who won well at Newcastle late last month and that form was boosted when the second finished fourth in the John Smith's Cup at York on Saturday. Based on that evidence, a 6lb rise may underestimate the five-year-old. Boss Power was not disgraced in a valuable event at Epsom last time, while Bad Company and Anythingtoday are others who are capable of going well.
Prediction : 1st Vulcan 2nd Boss Power 3rd Bad Company

LISEO arrives here having made the frame in all three of his previous starts and this appears to be an ideal opportunity for the son of Lope De Vega to get off the mark. Storm Castle has improved with every start to date and he is an obvious threat to the selection. Swashbuckler has shown promise on a couple of occasions and he completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Liseo 2nd Storm Castle 3rd Swashbuckler

Arabian Warrior won well enough at Newcastle last time, but that was taking advantage of a falling handicap mark and he's up 5lb for this, so NAPPER TANDY gets the vote. Andrew Balding's charge was beaten less than a length into third at Lingfield when last seen, shaping as though this longer trip might suit, and a recent gelding operation could mean he's less keen in the early stages. Trinity Girl ran well for second over two miles here last time and is interesting down in trip.
Prediction : 1st Napper Tandy 2nd Arabian Warrior 3rd Trinity Girl

THE NAIL GUNNER has won a pair of races on the Tapeta at Wolverhampton recently, with a close-up fifth on Polytrack at Kempton in between. Ivan Furtado's gelding likes to get on with things from the off so could prove ideally suited to this venue. Amasova has claims if producing her consistent turf form on the all-weather, while Bomb Squad is consistent enough to have a say in the outcome.
Prediction : 1st The Nail Gunner 2nd Bomb Squad 3rd Amasova
