Cracking The Puzzle

Harry Wilson tipped two winners on Saturday and returns with his fancies for Sunday's ITV4 action

Our tipster marks your card for the ITV4 action at Chelmsford and Nottingham

Harry Wilson returns with his advice for all seven races on Chelmsford's card - and the four races live on ITV4 from Nottingham . . . 


3.45 Chelmsford
Enter ITV7 For Free Apprentice Handicap, 6f

Harry's tip: Ararat

There are plenty of in-form rivals, but it looks worth taking a chance on Ararat, who has dropped to a good mark. It's easy to forgive his two runs since joining Robert Cowell, given the first came after 163 days off and the second was in a highly competitive Class 2 handicap at Newmarket, and returning to this track could be key, as he recorded his career-best Racing Post Rating on his only visit to Chelmsford. He's on his last winning mark and can take advantage of a big drop in class.

4.00 Nottingham
Sky Bet, For The Fans Fillies' Handicap, 5f

Harry's tip: Angel Shared

Angel Shared was reportedly unsuited by the tight nature of Chester last time and it's worth giving her another chance after her promising reappearance at Beverley, where she finished just a length behind subsequent winner Duran. She's at her best with a bit of cut underfoot and is now just 1lb higher than when winning at Carlisle this time last year.

4.15 Chelmsford
Sky Bet Club Restricted Maiden Stakes, 6f

Harry's tip: Caitrinho

Caitrinho finished third in a Class 2 novice at Newmarket on his debut, doing best of those towards the rear behind two rivals who were disputing the lead throughout. She should come forward for the experience and is related to a couple of all-weather winners, so the surface switch shouldn't be an issue.

4.30 Nottingham
Sky Bet Extra Places Every Day Handicap, 1m6f

Harry's tip: Rock N Roll Pinkie

Rock N Roll Pinkie was a close third in a better race than this on his reappearance at Doncaster two weeks ago, despite the ground being quick enough, and can build on that returned to this track, where he was a comfortable winner over this distance in November. He's been better than ever the last two times and can continue his progress from an unchanged mark.

4.45 Chelmsford
Sky Bet Extra Places Handicap, 1m6f

Harry's tip: Artisan Dancer

Artisan Dancer couldn't back up his fine run in the Chester Plate next time out at Newmarket last time, but he was poorly positioned in that race, given the way it panned out, and is worth another chance now reverting to the all-weather. He has produced his top-four RPRs on synthetics and was beaten just half a length at Kempton last month on his last run on Polytrack. He's 4lb higher than that day, but his only visit here resulted in a win and his mark looks workable.

5.00 Nottingham
Sky Bet Build A Bet Fillies' Handicap, 1m½f

Harry's tip: Supermodel

This is a trappy race, but four of these are happiest on the speed and Treasure is unlikely to be suited by dropping in trip, so Supermodel looks the likeliest winner. She was sent off second favourite for a Listed race on just her second last year after an impressive debut success, but she struggled in very testing conditions. She's well related and could prove a lot better than a mark of 83 on her handicap debut, with the step up in trip promising to suit.

5.15 Chelmsford
Sky Bet Price Boosts Handicap, 7f

Harry's tip: Silver Samurai

Silver Samurai has yet to win on the all-weather, but he's been placed in nine of his 13 starts on synthetics and once again showed his liking for Polytrack (form figures read 24322422) when runner-up to the progressive Al Ameen at Kempton this month, despite having to wait for a run. He was beaten just half a length on his sole course visit and, with the tongue-tie that worked well last time retained, he looks up to taking this off a mark 5lb below his last winning one.

5.30 Nottingham
Sky Bet Club Handicap, 1m½f

Harry's tip: Charencey

Ian Williams has had a couple of runners bounce back from winless spells recently and there's hope the return to turf can benefit Charencey, who has dropped to a mark 9lb than when a close third at Carlisle in August on her last start on grass. Her best effort since came after 88 days off, so the break since February could have done him good, and his last win was achieved on soft ground, so conditions won't faze him either. Everything looks in place for a return to form.

5.45 Chelmsford
Sky Bet For The Fans Handicap, 5f

Harry's tip: Diamond Dreamer

Loads of these like to go forward and it looks likely that there could be a pace collapse, which will suit Diamond Dreamer, who has a far better strike-rate on the all-weather (5-17) than on turf (1-9). He was making his first visit to Chelmsford when winning comfortably in March, recording a joint career-best RPR in the process, and this 6lb higher mark looks workable now returning to synthetics.

6.15 Chelmsford
Sky Bet Build A Bet Fillies' Handicap, 1m2f

Harry's tip: Lady Kameko

Likealot was thought good enough to run in a Listed race last time, having won well over course and distance on her debut, and could be better than an opening mark of 85, but I'll take a chance on Lady Kameko, who is bred to be a lot better than she's showed. By Kameko out of a useful Galileo mare, she's closely related to Saint George, who was second in the 2023 Queen's Vase. She showed promise when beaten less than two lengths in a Goodwood novice in August (winner is rated 100 and the sixth is 96) and could prove her mark of 72 all wrong, with the return to the all-weather a possible source of improvement.

6.45 Chelmsford
Sky Bet Proud To Support ROR Handicap, 1m

Harry's tip: Cephalus

Cephalus rose 31lb in the handicap courtesy of five victories in just over three months, but had been a bit out of sorts before bouncing back to form at Chelmsford in January. That was when the blinkers, which he had form figures of 1114 when wearing, were back on, and he followed that with an easy victory at Southwell in February, when merely needing nudging out to score having travelled powerfully. He wasn't suited by the way the ran panned out on All-Weather Championships finals day last time, but that came after a break anyway and should have left him spot on for this. This is a drop in class and a mark of 82 shouldn't be beyond him.
