UK Horse Racing Tips: Chelmsford City

Runner-up on his debut in August, ANTONIN DVORAK made no mistake when going one place better at the expense of a subsequent winner over 7f at Musselburgh last month. With further improvement forecast, he gets the vote to land the spoils for the in-form Karl Burke team. Master Technician was a fine second over a mile at Bath recently and he can emerge as the main danger to the selection, while Gilet has been running consistently well of late and shouldn't be underestimated.
Prediction : 1st Antonin Dvorak 2nd Master Technician 3rd Gilet

Habitual prominent-racer TWITCH is well drawn to attack here and he gets the tentative vote in what looks a trappy affair. He showed a likeable attitude when scoring gamely to bring up a C&D double last month and, nudged up 2lb, a bold bid for the hat-trick is expected. Lady Wingalong found only one rival too good over 7f at Wolverhampton recently and a 1lb rise doesn't discount another prominent showing, while the application of blinkers (retained) produced a better display from Dumfries over that same track and trip last month and he is also respected.
Prediction : 1st Twitch 2nd Lady Wingalong 3rd Dumfries

BARAQ impressed when bringing up the double over this trip at Newcastle earlier in the month, setting strong fractions before coming clear of his rivals in the closing stages. Racing off a 4lb higher mark, the suspicion is that this progressive son of Frankel can rate higher still. Dutch Decoy doubtless has the ability to play a hand in a race of this nature and, after being outclassed in the Cambridgeshire at Newmarket recently, he merits respect with his sights lowered on the comeback trail. Eagle Day is another to consider in what looks a competitive affair.
Prediction : 1st Baraq 2nd Dutch Decoy 3rd Eagle Day

From a handy draw, the lightly-weighted BOLD SUITOR has a lot going for him in this company and, having fended off the persistent H Key Lails to edge a tight finish over track and trip on his penultimate start, the son of Brazen Beau can cement his authority off the same mark as when runner-up back here a fortnight ago. Thomas Equinas and fellow C&D winner Absolutely Buzzing also have solid chances.
Prediction : 1st Bold Suitor 2nd H Key Lails 3rd Thomas Equinas

From just 2lb above his last winning mark on turf, REGAL ENVOY appeals on these terms with little to fear from reverting to Polytrack. Brandon Wilkie pitching in with his 3lb claim is a further boost for the selection at the weights and he is taken to hold sway over all-weather debutant Chief Mankato and previous C&D winner Princess Shabnam, who is attractively-weighted as a result of a lengthy winless sequence.
Prediction : 1st Regal Envoy 2nd Chief Mankato 3rd Princess Shabnam

NEMOV seemed to appreciate dropping back to 6f when he scored comfortably at Kempton at the back-end of August and, still unexposed in handicaps, the son of Blue Point should be progressive enough to cope with a 9lb higher mark based on that eye-catching effort. Fellow last-time-out winner American Bay is feared most on just his second start on a synthetic surface. Bowman and Spring Bloom are a couple of others to monitor in the betting market.
Prediction : 1st Nemov 2nd American Bay 3rd Bowman

Having scored in good style over 6f at Wolverhampton last Saturday, DOVES OF PEACE appears primed to strike while the iron is hot. Joe Bradnam's 7lb claim can help him overcome a 4lb rise. Time Patrol rates the biggest danger off just 1lb higher than a head defeat over 6f at Wolverhampton last month, while Araifjan was also narrowly beaten last time and another bold bid can be expected.
Prediction : 1st Doves Of Peace 2nd Time Patrol 3rd Araifjan

After a bloodless success over an extended 5f at Brighton on Tuesday, this represents a good opportunity for MARCHING MAC to follow up. Phil McEntee's charge scored by eight lengths on that occasion and, despite having a modest all-weather record, a 2lb rise appears lenient. Colors Of Freedom scored over 5f at Wolverhampton last month and she is feared most, while Kento is also of interest.
Prediction : 1st Marching Mac 2nd Colors Of Freedom 3rd Kento

An open contest sees a chance taken on CURTIZ, who was narrowly denied when second over 1m2f at Windsor in May. The seven-year-old was only beaten a short-head on that occasion and, with a win at this venue earlier in the year, he can defy a 2lb rise. Sunset In Paris scored in good style over C&D in August and a repeat of that effort would see him offer a bold bid, while Mc'ted isn't easily discounted either.
Prediction : 1st Curtiz 2nd Sunset In Paris 3rd Mcted
