Chelmsford City Racecard - Thursday 25th April

Evening Racing

Thursday 25th April 2024

Welcome to Chelmsford City Racecourse

This evening marks the beginning of the summer racing period, which means that the last race is now at 9.00 pm and, as a result of all the turf racing, the BHA have allocated us six races tonight rather than the more usual seven that we have during the winter.

The racing looks competitive across the card with large fields, so finding winners will not be easy, but we look forward to an exciting evening of racing and I wish you luck in finding some winners.

Have a lovely evening.

Neil Graham Racing Director

OFFICIAL BHA RATINGS

The BHA Handicappers allot ratings to horses once they have taken part in a sufficient number of races to enable the Handicappers to make a numerical assessment of each horse’s ability.

The principal purpose of the ratings is to determine the weight to be carried by each runner in handicap races, with the Handicappers aiming to provide each participant with an equal chance based on its best recent form under its optimum conditions. A horse rated 100, for example, would be set to carry 1lb more than a horse rated 99 (ignoring any penalties or allowances).

The ratings published in the racecard for handicap races are the ratings that were used to calculate the weight to be carried by each horse, whilst in non-handicaps races the rating shown is that of each runner at the time that the entries for the race were confirmed. Any subsequently published change to a rating, either up or down, is shown in brackets following the rating.

CITY SELECTIONS

In an open event marginal preference is for MISS SUNSET STRIP, who has hit the crossbar on both starts so far this year and the application of first-time cheekpieces could help her to go one better here Thanks Dad put in a promising display on his debut over C&D recently and is an obvious threat to the selection, while Royal Praise and Dusk Dame also merit places on the shortlist.

CITY SELECTIONS

No News has to be of interest given his most recent performances but the vote just goes to ROSE FANDANGO, who bounced back to form when winning over this trip at Wolverhampton earlier in the month. The six-year-old is only 2lb higher here and has to be respected as a result. Heerathetrack is more than capable of making the frame at this level, while So Chic should not be underestimated.

ROSE FANDANGO No News

Weightwatcher: SO CHIC won off a handicap mark of 65, her rating is now down 8lb to 57.

SO CHIC had been shaping up well prior to an excusable run (poor position) at Lingfield last time and, if the race is run to suit, she might be able to pick them up with a strong late challenge. No News is an obvious player following a good second at Kempton and Heerathetrack is another one who should bounce back having not been seen to best effect last time.

CITY SELECTIONS

SANDY PARADISE was an eye-catching second behind Noodle Mission two starts ago and also hit the crossbar on his most recent outing at Lingfield. A reproduction of either of those efforts would give the five-year-old a big chance once again. The aforementioned Noodle Mission has to be noted off just 2lb higher, while Epic Express edges out Revolutionise and Mr Squires to be the pick of the remainder

A few with chances but SANDY PARADISE is knocking on the door and can gain a deserved victory at the chief expense of Overnight Oats. Mr Squires is another who can have a say on the back of his Southwell victory. The handily-weighted Signcastle City completes the shortlist.

CITY SELECTIONS

DAARIS didn’t enjoy the best of passages when a close-up second here earlier this month and, granted some better luck, compensation could be on the horizon. The biggest threat may emerge from Devizes, who posted a solid third over 1m4f at Kempton recently and stepping back up in trip is likely to aid his cause. Any market support would make Fictional of interest on his handicap debut.

FICTIONAL: Following its run on 16/10/2023 it was reported that the horse slipped leaving the stalls.

BASCINET: Following its run on 14/4/2023 it was reported that the horse hung right in home straight.

Probable S.P’s: 2-1 Daaris (IRE), 7-2 Devizes (IRE), 5-1 Fictional (IRE), 9-1 Bascinet (GB), 10-1 Golden Dove (GB), 11-1 Beggarman (GB), 28-1 Bakersboy (GB)

DAARIS arrives in top form and probably would have won at this course last time with a clear run, so he’s worth a chance to gain compensation in a weak race. Fictional is one to note on handicap debut for an in-form stable and Devizes should give his running again.

Braintree Mews Care Home in Braintree is opening soon to provide a safe and supportive environment where residents can flourish, make new friends, remain part of their local community and live a life of possibility.

CITY SELECTIONS

Dual course winner Zachary showed some improvement when tried in a hood here a fortnight ago and, having finished second to a horse that has subsequently gone in again, another bold bid is likely However, the less-exposed PANNONICA also arrives on the back of a more encouraging display when fourth at Wolverhampton and, given he was rated 11lb higher last October, shades the vote off an attractive mark. It’s Showtime appeals most of the remainder

ZACHARY returned to his best in a first-time hood when second at this C&D a fortnight ago, form boosted by the winner scoring again since, so he is taken to add a third course victory to his name. Big Blue Boy also ran well here on his latest outing and is feared most, ahead of Quantum Force.

CITY SELECTIONS

ISLE OF SARK deserves a change of fortune after a string of near misses and this might finally be the day the consistent six-year-old gets off the mark for his current connections. Saffie Osborne knows the selection well and, with the drop back in trip being a positive, everything is in place for a big run. Ludo’s Landing and Cavalluccio are also considered, with the former feared most off 4lb below his last winning mark.

ISLE OF SARK Ludo’s Landing

Leading course trainer (19-24): S C Williams (54 wins from 428 runners, 13%) runs WYVERN

Trainer-in-form (last 14 days): A Haynes (4 wins from 28 runners, 14%) runs CAVALLUCCIO

Weightwatcher: WYVERN won off a handicap mark of 81, his rating is now down 8lb to 73.

A tight-knit handicap in which marginal preference is for CAVALLUCCIO who has an excellent record round here and arrives on the back of a good Kempton third. In-form duo Ludo’s Landing and Isle of Sark are next on the list and can chase home Alice Haynes’ likeable sort in that order
