ALLEMANDE
Win
Well bred and makes handicap debut after a string of placed efforts. Should step up on efforts.
L’ECLUME
Each way
course and distance winner top weight.
——————————————–
* L’ENCLUME wasn’t a course winner. previous win was at Kempton but was on a career low mark. Well backed and placed third @ 12/1
ALLEMANDE did not enjoy the step up in trip or the switch to open age, or handicaps and did not run to ability. The two runners either side of her at the weights were first and second.Fairyhouse 1220
CAST IRON
POLITICISE
Both each way
Two outsiders who will likely run well.
The former a Joseph O’Brien inmate who has been well backed the last twice. The latter a regular placer who has three good wins in the locker on the flat and over hurdles. Good placed run last time and due a big win soon.
The favourite ridden by Racheal Blackmore is sure to go well but looked well held when falling in a handicap at the last recently.Huntingdon 1.37
FLAN W/O THUNDERSOCKSSUNDAE @ 3/1
THUNDERSOCKSSUNDAE
Win
This horse certainly Like’s this course having raced here five times already this year.
Thundersockssundae has placed and won twice over these fences and continues on the up. The waters are muddied by having stablemate flann in this lineup and a cautious win without stake is taken as that one has shown real ability over hurdles…..5pm
ChelmsfordOTTOMAN PRINCE
Win
Was impressive when a suprise winner on debut and can defy the rise in the weights.
Unusual for a Prescott runner not to be stepped up in trip after a run. So may well be confident of going in again. Those that have already run look exposed.5.30
JUMBLEAU
win
5th in the Windsor castle and 3rd in a listed class 1 at York sets the standard.
Suprise if this race is not an easy race for Jumbeau to land.7.30
Chelmsford
CHICHESTER
Win.
UNITED FRONT
Each way
Record here 1122
UNITED FRONT was a Three length winner in this grade under a penalty and clearly loves chelmsford.
Arguably best performance behind champs Elysees in Ireland when with Aidan O’Brien.
Drawn badly this time in stall 10 but plenty of time over this trip to get a better position. Well held in meetings with Chichester.8.30
Mustaffiz
Each way
French maiden winner nice low draw very hard to evaluate.
———————————————-
CHICHESTER showed the value of collaborative form (And the draw) at Chelmsford when getting home, sticking to the rail until the home straight.
Politicise 13/2- 6/1 ew was a runner up at fairyhouse, and a couple were “chinned”.Bangor
1250
A case can be made for all of the runners and some drop in class, some change trip and several are back to winning marks.
The selections for a combination tricast all come from the middle of the handicap and are flanked in the main body of horses by those coming out of the race.
two horses are isolated at the top and were out of form at close of last season. As a result the defacto top weight is
DUC DE BEAUCHENE
YGGDRASIL
HOLLYWOODIEN
NOT AVAILABLE
This combination represents last year’s winner and some collaborative form.
The pipe horse gets the each way vote.
A winner and a second yesterday from two runners for the Socerer’s apprentice….
DUC DE BEAUCHENE
Each way
4 places with a firm.SAM’S CHOICE is the likely winner of ayrs maiden hurdle at 1.15
But there is no wriggle room at all in either the price or the price of the winning margin. So the race is a watch.1.40
Dundalk
ALJADY
Win
Has his second run for Dennis Hogan and made a good start in a heavy ground big field race at the Curragh when sixth.
This ordinary claimer although always keenly contested looks a good place to start off for a horse rated 20 lb clear of most of these. A 107 rated winner in England rated 90 here and shares same weight as half the field.
Comes out of stall 9 in a race won by 10 and 8 the last two years.
Joint yard James Macaulay also has a few and between them they run half a dozen.
1.45
Happy valley
CLASSIC UNICORN
EACH WAY
Won on last run here. Been to Sha tin twice since and still well below previous winning marks.has stall 1 to help.
WHIZZ KID
Win
Classy runner on the up grade and should run well on reappearance.Dundalk 2.45
CYCLAMEN , a 325,000gns buy for Aidan O’Brien has been expensive to follow and must be giving connections sleepless nights.
But he has a lot of experience and having fallen well short on reappearance on heavy ground has been found an opportunity to relaunch his career. Rated 83 was 87 placed in a good maiden last year.
No headgear and has an outside chance of getting on top here.
Small stakes win but this is a step down in the quality of race for him.
