Fly True can bounce back to form at Chelmsford

Racing at Chelmsford under lights tonight
Fly True runs at ChelmsfordCredit: Edward Whitaker

Newmarket: Anthony Burke

Prefontaine (3.45 Newmarket, nap)

The step up in trip seemed to suit at Nottingham where he opened his account on handicap debut. He stayed on strongly to land the spoils, there looked to be plenty left in the locker and he could still be ahead of the assessor.

Others to follow
Chelmsford 4.50 Astrofire 5.25 So Hi Class 6.00 Islay Mist 6.30 Windy Guest 7.00 Trade Mission 7.30 Strictly Carter 8.00 Plucky Dip 8.30 Our Kim.
Newcastle 5.15 Praeceps 5.45 Duneflower 7.15 Spring Holly 7.45 Trolius 8.45 Stealth Fighter.
Newmarket 1.30 Filles de Fleur 2.00 Fleursals 2.35 Light And Dark 3.10 Travel On 4.20 Contrive 4.55 Faylaq 5.30 Tribal Commander.

Colin Russell: North

Fly True (7.30 Chelmsford, nap)

Ran her best race for a while when a close fifth at Kempton last time. Well handicapped on her best form and though not ideally drawn, the step back up to 6f should suit and fancied to go well on her third start for her current trainer.

Others to follow
Chelmsford 4.50 Bob's Girl, 5.25 Lieutenant Silver, 6.00 Staycation, 6.30 Magical Duchess, 7.00 Matterhorn, 8.00 Mr Potter, 8.30 Outlaw Torn.
Newcastle 5.15 Airton, 5.45 Freed From Desire, 6.15 Lady Mayhem, 6.45 Palazzo, 7.15 Champagne On Rocks, 7.45 Archies Lad, 8.15 Strategic, 8.45 Kingdom Brunel.
Newmarket 3.10 Mind The Crack, 3.45 Nayef Road, 4.20 Crotchet, 4.55 Summer Moon.
Worcester 4.10 Lucky Robin.

Lambourn: James Burn

Just Hubert (3.45 Newmarket, nap)

There was talk of a Group 1 bid after this stoutly bred juvenile was a commanding winner at Pontefract two weeks ago, so a mark of 87 makes him an attractive on nursery debut.

Others to follow
Chelmsford 4.50 Townie Mac, 6.00 Sylvia's Mother, 6.30 Shaffire.
Fontwell 4.35 Morney Wing.
Newcastle 5.45 Stagehand, 6.15 Burning Lake, 8.45 Raincall.
Newmarket 2.00 Petits Fours, 2.35 Eligible, 3.10 The Olympian, 4.20 Ortiz, 5.30 Four Mile Bridge.
Worcester 1.50 Marienstar, 3.00 Baden, 4.10 Captain Peacock.

West Country: Tim Mitchell

Whitley Neill (4.10 Worcester, nap)

Shaped with promise on return from wind surgery in August and is fancied to make his presence felt now fitted with a tongue-tie and cheekpieces. He is also back up in distance on handicap debut.

Others to follow
Fontwell 1.40 Black Anthem, 2.15 New Millenium, 2.50 G For Ginger, 3.25 Never Learn, 5.10 Milano's Melody.
Worcester 3.00 Overland Flyer, 3.35 Enrilo, 4.45 Dr Sanderson, 5.20 Tomorrow Mystery.

Ireland: Tony O'Hehir

Miss Power (3.15 Navan)

Without a win since the summer of 2017, this daughter of Zebedee is a three-time winner over the minimum trip and her most recent effort when finishing well for third over today's course and distance suggests she can return to winning ways.

Racing Post Ratings: Simon Turner

Tomshalfbrother (6.00 Chelmsford)

No luck on last visit here but looks well in on best of this year's form. Worth chancing can make the most of this drop in class.

Topspeed: Dave Edwards

Extreme Force (5.30 Newmarket)

Has posted an improved effort on the clock on each of his four runs and could gain a belated first success.

Longshot: Ben Harris

Victarion (4.10 Worcester)

Beaten favourite last time out, but travelled well for a long way before finishing third. That form has worked out well, suggesting he might be on a lenient mark on handicap debut.

The Raceform Interactive nugget

Gunfleet (3.00 Worcester)

Emma Lavelle has won with five of her last 15 runners (33 per cent, +£19) in handicap chases at Worcester and another five placed. That bodes well for Gunfleet in the 3.00.
