UK Horse Racing Tips: Chelmsford City

BOLD STYLE hit the woodwork on his racecourse debut and natural progression might be enough to see Charlie Appleby's colt come home in front. Hutchence attracted market support at Newmarket last month but was perhaps unsuited by the testing conditions. The son of Frankel could well fare better here, while Space Legend, Mimasusa and Ville Natale are all interesting newcomers.
Prediction : 1st Bold Style 2nd Hutchence 3rd Space Legend

A lofty weight proved to be no problem for ALFRED when taking his record on the all-weather to 2-3 at Wolverhampton three weeks ago and a subsequent 9lb hike might not be enough to stop George Boughey's progressive gelding. Habrdi (winner) is now 8lb worse off with Gaiden (second) for their recent clash, but the son of Calyx is expected to confirm that form. Handicap debutant Sun God is no back number, nor is C&D winner Monks Mead.
Prediction : 1st Alfred 2nd Habrdi 3rd Sun God

LORD NORMANDY shaped with promise over 1m here on his racecourse bow. The son of Le Havre ought to appreciate a step up in trip and, from his low draw, might be worth siding with. Claxton Bay has been running with credit in handicap company of late and he merits consideration, along with the consistent Prometeo, who could improve for the application of first-time cheekpieces.
Prediction : 1st Lord Normandy 2nd Claxton Bay 3rd Prometeo

Turned out again quickly after an impressive success over C&D last week, PENZANCE should be able to handle a 6lb penalty as he looks to follow up on just his third start for new connections. Storm Catcher has been in fine form of late and he can give the selection most to think about, while Polling Day may improve on his most recent effort at Lingfield.
Prediction : 1st Penzance 2nd Storm Catcher 3rd Polling Day

Narrowly denied on his last two starts, MR TRICK deserves a change in luck and he can get that on this occasion. The five-year-old has dropped 4lb below his last winning mark and he gets the vote ahead of the likes of Headingley and Cavalluccio, who was a determined winner over C&D on his penultimate outing. Coolree and Nikki's Girl are entitled to be thereabouts as well.
Prediction : 1st Mr Trick 2nd Cavalluccio 3rd Nikkis Girl

FANTASTIC FOX made the most of a handy mark to notch a brace of wins on his last two starts and is hard to resist in his bid to complete the hat-tirck, despite going up 4lb after his latest success. Desert Order is noteworthy with his attempt to complete the same feat after wins at York and Newmarket. Gelded since, he commands respect on his all-weather debut, while Tacarib Bay completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Fantastic Fox 2nd Desert Order 3rd Tacarib Bay

KYLE OF LOCHALSH finished with a storming run to score over this course and distance last month and is hard to oppose on the back of that comfortable success, despite the imposition of a 6lb higher mark. Fellow last-time-out winner Chase The Dollar is respected making his course debut, while Tradesman is another must for the shortlist as he chases a four-timer.
Prediction : 1st Kyle Of Lochalsh 2nd Chase The Dollar 3rd Tradesman
