Timeform Rating

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.

You must be 18 or over to place a bet You may be asked to provide proof of your age when placing a bet If you cannot produce this your bet will not be accepted

Our Commitment to Horse Welfare At Chelmsford City Racecourse, the welfare of our horses is our highest priority, and this commitment is most visible in the continuous improvements made to our All-Weather racing surface. The surface has been expertly rewaxed and enhanced with added fibre to reduce kickback and improve safety. Additionally, the pedestrian crossing over the track was replaced early on with an underpass from the ticket office to the concourse, ensuring a safer experience for both horses and racegoers.

Every raceday, three qualified equine vets are on duty, closely monitoring the action and ready to respond within moments should an incident occur.

We always maintain two equine ambulances and three for jockeys on-site, supported by permanent veterinary boxes and, during major fixtures, on-site X-ray facilities for swift diagnosis and care.

Hydration and recovery are also carefully managed, with ample water and multiple washdown stations available to help horses cool down immediately after racing.

Chelmsford City Racecourse works with the British Horseracing Authority, Great British Racing, RSPCA, World Horse Welfare, and the Horse Welfare Board to champion world-class equine care. British Racing has invested over £56 million since 2000 in veterinary research and education, improving safety for all horses—not just racehorses. We remain committed to the highest standards of welfare, both on and off the track. At Chelmsford City, the horses come first—always.

FOR THE LOVE OF HORSES

Happy New Year!

We look forward to welcoming you back in 2026, with fixtures taking place throughout the year and a calendar of exciting feature days for all to enjoy...

CITY SELECTIONS SIR RODNEYREDBLOOD ran out a decisive winner over 6f here recently and another bold bid is on the cards. The veteran’s 4lb penalty is effectively negated by Liam Wright’s 5lb claim and a return to 5f shouldn’t hamper his bid. Forest Gunner wasn’t beaten all that far when finishing sixth at Southwell and is feared most in a first-time visor, ahead of What What What.

First Race

SIR RODNEYREDBLOOD won comfortably here on Thursday and a 4lb penalty may not stop him if showing up in similar form. Forest Gunner is more than capable in this grade and PLAY SMARTER may follow the selection home. Gogo Yubari could also have a big say if turning out here after/instead of Lingfield on Saturday.

CITY SELECTIONS Having overcome a troubled passage to score over C&D, a 1lb higher mark looks more than workable for EM FOUR. The four-year-old ticks plenty of the right boxes remaining in a 0-75 contest and he edges the vote over Lady Wingalong. David Evans’ mare has been knocking on the door of late and should give another good account of herself. Ziggy’s Condor and Ziggy’s Queen are feasible alternatives.

CITY SELECTIONS Enthused returned to form with a never-nearer third over 1m4f at Lingfield recently and must enter calculations given his falling mark. However, this drop in distance may prove a barrier to success for him, which might leave the door open for SERAPHIC. The six-year-old was narrowly denied at Wolverhampton and compensation could be imminent. Twilight Guest is also worth a second look.

CITY SELECTIONS Revolutionise has to be respected following his success over C&D earlier in the month, but a 4lb rise demands more from him. As a result, preference is for GAIETY MUSICAL, who has run very well in defeat off this mark the last twice and this could be her day. Diamondonthehill edges out Benacre and Monsieur Kodi to be best of the rest.

CITY SELECTIONS KONDRATIEV WAVE has been knocking on the door on his latest starts, with a brace of placed efforts at Lingfield. The most recent of those saw him beaten a head into third over this distance and Tony Carroll’s gelding has a solid opportunity to strike. Despite finishing fifth, Strobelight was beaten less than a length at Newcastle last time and a repeat of that would see him enter calculations. Diligent Henry heads the remainder.
