UK Horse Racing Tips: Chelmsford City

In an open event marginal preference is for MISS SUNSET STRIP, who has hit the crossbar on both starts so far this year and the application of first-time cheekpieces could help her to go one better here. Thanks Dad put in a promising display on his debut over C&D recently and is an obvious threat to the selection, while Royal Praise and Dusk Dame also merit places on the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Miss Sunset Strip 2nd Thanks Dad 3rd Royal Praise

No News has to be of interest given his most recent performances but the vote just goes to ROSE FANDANGO, who bounced back to form when winning over this trip at Wolverhampton earlier in the month. The six-year-old is only 2lb higher here and has to be respected as a result. Heerathetrack is more than capable of making the frame at this level, while So Chic should not be underestimated.
Prediction : 1st Rose Fandango 2nd No News 3rd Heerathetrack

SANDY PARADISE was an eye-catching second behind Noodle Mission two starts ago and also hit the crossbar on his most recent outing at Lingfield. A reproduction of either of those efforts would give the five-year-old a big chance once again. The aforementioned Noodle Mission has to be noted off just 2lb higher, while Epic Express edges out Revolutionise and Mr Squires to be the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Sandy Paradise 2nd Noodle Mission 3rd Epic Express

DAARIS didn't enjoy the best of passages when a close-up second here earlier this month and, granted some better luck, compensation could be on the horizon. The biggest threat may emerge from Devizes, who posted a solid third over 1m4f at Kempton recently and stepping back up in trip is likely to aid his cause. Any market support would make Fictional of interest on his handicap debut.
Prediction : 1st Daaris 2nd Devizes 3rd Fictional

Dual course winner Zachary showed some improvement when tried in a hood here a fortnight ago and, having finished second to a horse that has subsequently gone in again, another bold bid is likely. However, the less-exposed PANNONICA also arrives on the back of a more encouraging display when fourth at Wolverhampton and, given he was rated 11lb higher last October, shades the vote off an attractive mark. It's Showtime appeals most of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Pannonica 2nd Zachary 3rd Its Showtime

ISLE OF SARK deserves a change of fortune after a string of near misses and this might finally be the day the consistent six-year-old gets off the mark for his current connections. Saffie Osborne knows the selection well and, with the drop back in trip being a positive, everything is in place for a big run. Ludo's Landing and Cavalluccio are also considered, with the former feared most off 4lb below his last winning mark.
Prediction : 1st Isle Of Sark 2nd Ludos Landing 3rd Cavalluccio
