2 year old filly sired by Lucky Vega is having her 5th race and 2nd handicap run. She is having a step up in trip and on breeding this should suit along with the soft going. Good run expected.

5 year old Mare Sired by Poet's Word is a course and distance winner here. Seems versatile regarding ground and has been dropping down the weights to a very workable mark. Change of jockey may also perk her up a bit. Decent price for an each way tickle from me.

3-year-old gelding sired by Sea the Stars has yet to get his head in front but has run some decent races. Two good runs since being gelded should have brought him back to peak fitness, and his first run here at Lingfield, where he has been dropped back a little in trip, may bring his first win. There is market confidence, and he may well try to make all.

4-year-old filly sired by Awtaad last won in January when down to this handicap mark of 67. Same jockey again today, and although she hasn't run here at Chelmsford before, on breeding she should handle it without problem. Has run a decent 3rd at Southwell and Newmarket over the mile trip, so no problem with the distance. Price is generous enough for me to go each way today. Hopeful of a big run.

4-year-old Havana Grey filly hasn't managed to get her head in front since January 24, although she has run well here on a couple of occasions, including going close 3 runs back. She has a decent draw today and has come down in the weights due to some lacklustre performances. Breeding suggests she will be fine with the good to soft going, although she hasn't run on it much. Maybe today, from this draw, she can put her best hoof forward.

4 year old Gelding Sired by Due Diligence has only the one win in his 17 race career but it was over course and distance. Breeding suggests this course suits and he is 1lb below that win. He has a decent draw for one that can front run. I like the jockey booking and he should go close.

3-year-old filly sired by Cracksman has yet to win in any of her 6 races to date. However, she has placed 3 times, including in one of her handicap outings, and she has dropped a few lbs in the handicap. Probably her best race to date was when on soft going on turf, and she has that today. Breeding suggests she will be better for this surface and going, so today could be her first win.

Much going for this 3-year-old gelding sired by Aclaim. He is a course and distance winner, actually winning all his 3 wins over this distance. He has won on today's soft going. Has a decent draw and won under this jockey. The price pretty much reflects his chance but worth a bet in my eyes.

9-year-old gelding sired by Most Improved is having only his outing over fences. He has come down the weights significantly of late and ran a decent race over further here early last month. The reduced distance may just help him stay out the race that bit better, and he should go close.

4-year-old gelding sired by Havana Grey seems to like the soft going he has today and also winning all his 3 races over this distance. Dropped a notch in the handicap, and he has run well carrying a big weight before, so today's top weight under ideal conditions puts him up with every chance.

3-year-old gelding sired by Ten Sovereigns is yet to get his head in front but has run some decent races. One of them was here back in June when fading late on. Dropped further in the handicap today, better drawn and in a lower grade. It shouldn't be long before he gets his head in front. I'm thinking it could be today. Price allows each way.

4-year-old filly sired by Havana Gold is carrying top weight here even though she has been dropped a couple of lbs in the handicap. The reason being she is down in class to where she has done her winning to date. She seems to like Chelmsford, and the jockey gets on well with her, having ridden her before.

4-year-old filly sired by Shamardal has won her only race to date here over the 7 furlongs. She also ran well last time out here over 6 furlongs under this jockey, so evidently likes the surface. Same handicap mark today, so should go close now the jockey knows her better.

2 year old Filly Sired by Pinatubo ran very well winning by over 4 lengths last time out in a novice event. She has yet to run on ground this firm but on breeding there is no reason she will have a problem with it. Her speed figure was good in her last run and I think we have a fair price to take a chance with here.

2-year-old filly sired by No Nay Never has been in the first two in all 5 starts, winning 2 Group 2s and coming 2nd in a Group 1, being beaten by a horse she had previously beaten comfortably. We all have off days, and I'm hoping the 2nd was just that, and she will bounce back to her brilliant self in this tough Group 1.

4-year-old filly sired by Rajasinghe has won a few races on the all-weather and recently over 6 furlongs on good to firm here. She ran a decent race over 7 furlongs last time out before fading towards the end. Back to 6 furlongs today, down a lb in the handicap, and seems versatile on ground. Decent chance, decent price.

3-year-old gelding sired by Aclaim has been running consistently without quite getting his head in front. He has a decent draw today for one that can front run. The ground should suit him more than some others, and sometimes you have to just keep knocking on the door. Maybe today he will be let into the winner's enclosure.

4-year-old gelding sired by Aclaim has been the model of consistency of late. Ran a good race last time out on today's good to soft going, and the winner has come out and won again since. This course suits a front runner, and the change of jockey may just help as Jason rides this course well.

5-year-old gelding sired by Camacho. His form seems to have been improving over the last couple of races, including a good run in a class 2 last time out. It's been over 2 years since he got his head in front, and the handicapper is relenting with a drop in mark. That win was on soft ground, and he has won previously at Goodwood. I think a good draw, the ground, and improved form all give me encouragement a win will come soon. A tough race to win, but the price reflects that, so we may get value.

3-year-old gelding sired by Inns Of Court has had just 2 wins so far in his career, but both on soft ground and both under today's jockey. He has been coming down the weights to a winnable mark and can front from which may well suit from a decent draw today.

3-year-old gelding sired by Kodiac has yet to get his head in front but probably ran his best race on soft going at Catterick on October 24, coming a close 2nd and running on. He has similar conditions today and can front run, so if he gets away on terms, he could get a good position and have good use made of him. This 5 furlongs suits a front runner, and this horse stays 6 furlongs, so I think this tactic may be adopted and work well.
