UK Horse Racing Tips: Chelmsford City

EM FOUR is the only C&D winner in this field having taken his maiden here in January last year. He arguably needs a career best off this mark but if he can build on last weekend's two-length third at Southwell, he has every chance. The Andrew Balding horses are running to form, suggesting Express Train could bounce back to his peak, although the first-time-visored Nazron might be the bigger danger.
Prediction : 1st Em Four 2nd Nazron 3rd Express Train

Gemmari was strongly fancied over 2m here last time out but, in a muddling race, he failed to give his best before finishing last of five. He can do better off 1lb lower over this trip, but may have to give way to D DAY ARVALENREEVA. A three-time winner over hurdles, she finished a length-and-a-quarter third in the same race and should confirm the form off the same mark. Cardinal Point is ultra-consistent but may have to settle for another place.
Prediction : 1st D Day Arvalenreeva 2nd Gemmari 3rd Cardinal Point

THECOFFEEPODDOTCO has run well recently and was only beaten half a length into second over 6f at Lingfield. If she can break smartly once more over this trip, she may try to make every post a winning one. Mad Dash has room for improvement after only two starts and might be the one to follow the suggestion home. Mayflyer is a newcomer of note and could well get involved in the battle for the places.
Prediction : 1st Thecoffeepoddotco 2nd Mad Dash 3rd Mayflyer

Runner-up at Southwell a fortnight ago, Chola Empire won when last seen at this venue in October. He holds every chance, but it could be the turn of REVOLUTIONISE once again. Second over C&D last time, the veteran grey has won off higher marks on the all-weather in the past and Jack Dace's 5lb allowance further helps his cause. Me Tarzan just got the better of Arantes Nascimento when scoring at Lingfield and that pair are hard to separate.
Prediction : 1st Revolutionise 2nd Chola Empire 3rd Me Tarzan

THANH NAM followed a C&D success with a convincing victory at Wolverhampton. The son of Without Parole is taken to continue on his upward curve, despite the switch of headgear, and defy a 4lb rise. Urban Law must be taken seriously now sent handicapping for the first time for a top yard, while Reason's Power could take a step forward in first-time cheekpieces.
Prediction : 1st Thanh Nam 2nd Urban Law 3rd Reasons Power

ARTHUR ROSE has flourished since joining Brian Toomey and is hard to overlook in her bid to complete a hat-trick. Her two wins at Lingfield were gained in a pleasing enough manner to suggest a 4lb higher mark is manageable while she is on a roll. Nebula Stars and Gladiadora fought out a finish at the same track and warrant close inspection. Rising Force and recent Kempton winner Adace are solid each-way options.
Prediction : 1st Arthur Rose 2nd Gladiadora 3rd Nebula Stars

TIME TESTED appears best when caught fresh and is an attractive proposition resuming from a 64-day break. A cosy winner over this C&D when last seen, the Michael Bell-trained gelding is 2-2 at this venue and his case is boosted further with the in-form Hector Crouch retaining the ride. Knockbrex's last two efforts read well and he is a must for consideration. Sheriff's Court and Epictetus complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Time Tested 2nd Knockbrex 3rd Sheriffs Court
