(2) Aqwaam 6/4, 5/1, good 2 lengths second of 8 to Sharp Distinction in handicap at Lingfield (13f, AW) 12 days ago, nearest finish. Not out of things. Sharp Distinction had gone by the time he found his stride at Lingfield; same mark.

10/3(+0%)
(1) Sharp Distinction 10/3, Career best when winning 8-runner handicap (13/2) at Lingfield (13f, AW) 12 days ago by 2 lengths from Aqwaam. 5 lb higher now but another bold bid anticipated. Showed a good turn of foot to readily account for Aqwaam at Lingfield; up 5lb.

3rd (4) (6/1 +8%) De Vega's Warrior
6
6/1(+8%)
(4) De Vega's Warrior 6/1, Below par on heavy at Haydock latest but ran well on his last visit here and has been given a chance by the handicapper. Well handicapped if returning to his best form and the ground was desperate last time.

4th (6) (28/1 -56%) Sindri
28
28/1(-56%)
(6) Sindri 28/1, 18/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (14f) 5 days ago. Still looking for first success. Didn't convince with her stamina for this far when only fifth at Wolverhampton last week.

5th (5) (3/1 +25%) Lunar Shadow

3/1(+25%)
(5) Lunar Shadow 3/1, Proved admirably consistent this year and recorded her third victory from 7 starts when taking C&D handicap 33 days ago. Remains fairly treated and looks sure to go well again. Latest win over C&D when allowed to dictate matters from some way out.

6th (3) (18/1 -64%) Candy Shack
18
18/1(-64%)
(3) Candy Shack 18/1, 9/1 and hooded for 1st time, ninth of 10 in handicap at Haydock (11.6f, good to firm). Off 124 days. Back up in trip. Others preferred. Last season was better than this but returns from a break with yard in sizzling form.
LTO Selection:
12:20 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 5) 14f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
LUNAR SHADOW arrives here having won her last two starts on the Flat and a 4lb rise for her latest victory, which came over this course and distance, may not be enough to stop her. Sharp Distinction readily accounted for Aqwaam over 1m5f at Lingfield a couple of weeks ago and he could confirm that form, despite a 5lb swing in the weights.
LUNAR SHADOW added to her solid record in 2023 when scoring over C&D last month and hasn't been harshly treated by the handicapper for that success. She can follow up. Sharp Distinction and De Vega's Warrior rate the principal dangers.
(1) Daysofourlives 5/2, Back to winning ways at Ascot (8f) in September and backed that up with creditable third of 8 in minor event over same C&D 32 days ago. Worth a crack at this longer trip and merits consideration. Some excuses when third at Ascot and still progressing; this new trip should help.

4
2nd (4) (3/1 +25%) Queen Regent
3
3/1(+25%)
(4) Queen Regent 3/1, Lightly-raced winner. Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap (14/1) at Newmarket (10f, good to firm) 31 days ago. Not discounted. First and second in AW novices earlier in year but hasn't looked well treated in handicaps.

3rd (3) (15/2 +25%) Tony Montana
7.5
15/2(+25%)
(3) Tony Montana 15/2, First run since leaving John & Thady Gosden when tenth of 11 in handicap at York (13.8f, heavy, 28/1) 25 days ago. Back down in trip. Makes polytrack debut. Needs a couple of these to falter. Hasn't progressed since his odds-on success in a Newbury novice in July.

4th (2) (28/1 -155%) Silver Gunn
28
28/1(-155%)
(2) Silver Gunn 28/1, Latest win at Windsor in July. Creditable fourth of 9 in handicap at Sandown (10f, good, 15/2) 79 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Respected on polytrack debut. Capable off this mark but light on AW experience and will need a solid pace to chase.
5th

5th (5) (9/4 -20%) Lucky Fifteen
2.25
9/4(-20%)
(5) Lucky Fifteen 9/4, 3 wins from 5 runs this year (including over C&D in June). Only fifth of 7 in handicap in the mud at Goodwood (9.9f) when last seen in August. Better expected here His C&D win in June was the opening leg of a hat-trick; soft ground an excuse last time.
6th
7
6th (7) (9/1 -157%) Man Of Monaco
9
9/1(-157%)
(7) Man Of Monaco 9/1, Off the mark at Beverley (9.9f) in September and improved on that when fourth of 13 in minor event over C&D (5/1) 10 days ago, not ideally placed. May have more to offer on handicap debut. Hard to call him well handicapped but open to further improvement.

|RR| (6) (28/1 +30%) Double March
28
28/1(+30%)
(6) Double March 28/1, Unreliable type. Latest win at Ascot in May. Refused to race in handicap at Leicester (10f, soft, 18/1) 56 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. Comes with risks attached. All gone pear-shaped since winning over this far at Ascot in May.
LTO Selection:
12:55 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 3) 10f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Soft ground appears to be a valid excuse for LUCKY FIFTEEN's disappointing effort at Goodwood last time. Ralph Beckett's gelding had been highly progressive prior to that defeat and it would be no surprise to see him bounce back over a course and distance that he won over in June. Queen Regent was not disgraced in a valuable event at Newmarket last time and she edges out Man Of Monaco and Silver Gunn to be best of the rest.
LUCKY FIFTEEN was going the right way before seemingly bogged down by the conditions at Goodwood last time and can resume winning ways. Daysofourlives and Man of Monaco are feared most.
(3) Inverlochy 9/4, Lightly-raced maiden. Back from 4 months off when creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 33 days ago, running on. Could have more to offer yet. Fair run at Lingfield last month after a break; low mileage; contender dropped in class.

2nd (1) (10/1 +9%) Clipsham Gold
10
10/1(+9%)
(1) Clipsham Gold 10/1, Latest win at Kempton in May. 40/1, good seventh of 12 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 13 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. More promise at Kempton last time & dropping into a Class 6 can help; one to consider.
3
6
3rd (6) (13/2 -30%) High Court Judge
6.5
13/2(-30%)
(6) High Court Judge 13/2, C&D winner earlier this year and followed up at Kempton (8f) In March. Not been in same form since, though. C&D winner; on dangerous mark and a revival wouldn't be a total bolt from the blue.
4
7
4th (7) (28/1 +44%) Channel Packet
28
28/1(+44%)
(7) Channel Packet 28/1, 3-time C&D winner. Tenth of 12 in handicap at this C&D (66/1) 19 days ago. Makes limited appeal. 1 lb out of the weights. Three-time C&D winner but current wellbeing has to be taken on trust.
5th
5
5th (5) (9/4 +10%) Cariad
2.25
9/4(+10%)
(5) Cariad 9/4, Career best when winning 9-runner handicap over C&D (9/2) 3 days ago, readily. Carries 6 lb penalty for that success but holds strong follow-up claims nonetheless. Easy winner over C&D on Saturday; penalty not insurmountable but this will demand more.
6th
2
6th (2) (9/2 +31%) Uncle Dick
4.5
9/2(+31%)
(2) Uncle Dick 9/2, 3 wins from 6 runs this year. Latest win at Brighton (8f) in September. Not seen to best effect when fifth at Wolverhampton latest and must enter calculations. Three Brighton wins this year (1m); had an excuse latest; inexperienced apprentice booked.
7th

7th (4) (10/1 +0%) Tribal Wisdom
10
10/1(+0%)
(4) Tribal Wisdom 10/1, 20/1, sixth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 12 days ago. Still looking for first success. Clear signs he retains ability at Lingfield 12 days ago; one to note for market confidence.
LTO Selection:
13:30 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
CARIAD appeared to have plenty in hand when scoring over this course and distance on Saturday and she is very hard to oppose under a 6lb penalty. Uncle Dick has won three of his last five starts and was badly hampered at a crucial time when fifth at Wolverhampton most recently. With a clear run, he could prove to be the main threat to the selection ahead of Inverlochy and Tribal Wisdom.
CARIAD is turned out quickly after her decisive C&D victory last week and remains feasibly treated, despite a 6lb penalty. She can score again. Inverlochy and Uncle Dick should also go well.
Inverlochy, Cariad and Clipsham Gold have claims but TRIBAL WISDOM caught the eye last time and may be primed to strike.
(3) Jeanne D'Arc 5/6, Promising sort. Second of 12 in maiden (10/3) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) on debut 15 days ago, not ideally placed. Obvious claims here with that experience to draw upon. Eyecatching second at Wolverhampton and smacks of a sure-fire improver.
2
5
2nd (5) (66/1 -230%) Madame De Sevigne
66
66/1(-230%)
(5) Madame De Sevigne 66/1, Twice-raced filly. Seventh of 17 in maiden (100/1) at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) 38 days ago. Probably more one for handicaps further down the line. Improved second time out to finish seventh of 17 at Newmarket (7f).
3
2
3rd (2) (7/2 +0%) Shakeela
3.5
7/2(+0%)
(2) Shakeela 7/2, Twice-raced winner. 15/8, won 9-runner maiden at Southwell (7.1f) 28 days ago, kept up to work. Open to improvement and should make her presence felt. Caught the eye on debut and then ran on well to justify favouritism at Southwell (7f).
4
7
4th (7) (125/1 +0%) Nancy P
125
125/1(+0%)
(7) Nancy P 125/1, Once-raced filly. Fifth of 7 in maiden (25/1) at Newmarket (7f, good to soft) on debut 25 days ago. Readily passed over. 25-1 chance when beaten 12l into fifth (of seven) at Newmarket in October (7f, soft).
5th

5th (8) (50/1 +0%) Rockymountainway
50
50/1(+0%)
(8) Rockymountainway 50/1, Foaled April 23. Lope De Vega filly. Dam, 5f/6f winner (including at 2 yrs), sister to very smart 7f/1m winner Tabarrak. Worth a second look in the betting. Dam Listed-placed 5f/6f winner (RPR 102), sister to 7f/1m Listed winner Tabarrak.
6th

6th (6) (14/1 +44%) Nakheel
14
14/1(+44%)
(6) Nakheel 14/1, Foaled April 5. Dubawi filly. Sister to 1¼m winner Elraaed. Likely type on paper and it'll be interesting to see what the market has to say. Third foal; sister to 1m2f winner Elraaed (RPR 87); needs a market check.
7th
1
7th (1) (11/4 -22%) Panarea
2.75
11/4(-22%)
(1) Panarea 11/4, 8/11, won 5-runner minor event at Ascot (6f, good to soft) on debut in July. That form is no more than fair, but as a well-bred filly representing powerful connections, she is likely to improve. Major player. Odds-on and did well to reel in the front-runner on debut at Ascot in July (6f); promising.
LTO Selection:
14:05 Chelmsford Stakes (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
PANAREA made the perfect start to her career at Ascot in July and the half-sister to champion juvenile Pinatubo is expected to back that performance up, despite giving 7lb to all of her rivals barring Shakeela. Roger Varian's filly stepped forward from her debut to win at Southwell and she enters calculations. Jeanne d'Arc is another with valid form credentials based on her runner-up effort at Wolverhampton.
JEANNE D'ARC shaped like a ready-made future winner when going close in a Wolverhampton maiden recently and, with improvement on the cards, she is taken to go one better here. The form of the Ascot novice won by Panarea during the summer is nothing to get too excited about, but she has to be feared nevertheless and is second choice ahead of Southwell scorer Shakeela.
In receipt of weight from the penalised winners this may go the way of JEANNE D'ARC, who was a big eyecatcher at Wolverhampton.
(3) Musical Mystery 13/8, Two wins from 6 runs this year. 7/4, career best when winning 11-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 35 days ago. 5 lb rise tolerable and he has to enter calculations. Has won two of his three races since joining Ed Dunlop and the AW looks his scene.
2
4
2nd (4) (3/1 +33%) Rich Rhythm
3
3/1(+33%)
(4) Rich Rhythm 3/1, 17/2 and blinkered for 1st time, bit below form sixth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 41 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Ralph Beckett and capable of a bold show. His novice win came over 5f but he stays 7f and has placed form in handicaps; new yard.
3
6
3rd (6) (7/1 -56%) Legende D'Art
7
7/1(-56%)
(6) Legende D'Art 7/1, C&D winner. 20/1, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 17 days ago. Yard saddles a stronger candidate in Kodias Sangarius. Excuses last time and that after an encouraging return; has won over C&D.
4
5
4th (5) (4/1 -78%) Kodias Sangarius
4
4/1(-78%)
(5) Kodias Sangarius 4/1, Won 8-runner handicap at this course (6f, 14/1) 24 days ago, readily. Now 3-11 on the AW and, with a 5 lb rise fair enough, she looks sure to be involved in the finish. Rated higher in the past and impressed last time; that was over 6f but 7f worth another go.
5th
1
5th (1) (12/1 +33%) Arranmore
12
12/1(+33%)
(1) Arranmore 12/1, Twenty runs since last win in 2021. Eighth of 10 in handicap at Carlisle (9f, good, 5/1) 68 days ago. Down in trip on debut for new yard and probably best watched on first AW start for quite some time. Has flopped the last twice and recently changed hands for £1,000.
6th
2
6th (2) (12/1 -20%) Inanna
12
12/1(-20%)
(2) Inanna 12/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Bit below form fifth of 10 in handicap at this course (6f, 100/1) 19 days ago. Has work to do. 0-13 since her debut win and has twice disappointed since going close over 6f at Yarmouth.
LTO Selection:
14:40 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
MUSICAL MYSTERY appears to have turned a corner recently, winning two of his last three starts with both coming on the all-weather, and Ed Dunlop's gelding may well have more to offer stepping back up to 7f. Kodias Sangarius went up 5lb for her recent victory here and is entitled to be competitive once again, while Rich Rhythm shaped with promise for Ralph Beckett and is respected on his debut for new connections.
KODIAS SANGARIUS duly returned to form back on the all-weather when landing a 6f handicap in ready fashion here last month. She remains feasibly treated up 5 lb and is taken to strike again, with another crack at this trip well worth exploring. Musical Mystery has won 2 of his last 3 starts and looks a big danger, while Rich Rhythm could also have a part to play on debut for his new yard.
Henry Spiller's KODIAS SANGARIUS has shown all her form at 6f but this might not be too demanding a test over 7f.
(2) Smart Deal Evens, Modest over hurdles but posted fair form both starts on Flat, latest when fourth of 10 in minor event at Southwell (8.1f, 11/1) 40 days ago. Enters calculations. Not beaten far into fourth in two Flat races (1m2f/1m) for new yard; bang there.

1
2nd (1) (Evens +28%) Cosmos Raj
0
Evens(+28%)
(1) Cosmos Raj Evens, Notched a third career win at Ripon when successful there (8f) in July. Below par over 10f next time, but has been holding his form well back down in trip since, creditable fifth of 16 at Pontefract (good to soft) last time. Holds strong claims. Hasn't been running badly in 1m handicaps; strong form claims in this company.

3rd (3) (25/1 -194%) Art Of Romance
25
25/1(-194%)
(3) Art Of Romance 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 16/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at Bath (8f, good to firm) 55 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Brian Meehan. Others preferred. Decent debut for former yard but it all went downhill afterwards.
4
5
4th (5) (125/1 -279%) Withy Rock
125
125/1(-279%)
(5) Withy Rock 125/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 80/1, creditable third of 8 in seller at Leicester (7f, heavy) 21 days ago. Work to do. Five defeats include two sellers and her third at Leicester last month was remote.
5th
4
5th (4) (12/1 -140%) Groove Nation
12
12/1(-140%)
(4) Groove Nation 12/1, 92,000 gns foal, 200,000 gns yearling, 9,000 gns 3-y-o, Siyouni gelding. Half-brother to 2-y-o 5f/6f winner Atomic Lady and 7f winner Undertheboardwalk. Wears cheekpieces.- Market check advised on debut. Nicely bred but has been gelded, goes in cheekpieces and kicks off in a seller.
LTO Selection:
15:15 Chelmsford Seller (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
According to the official ratings, Art Of Romance should go well at these weights but he hasn't gone forward from his debut second and needs to do more to win here. COSMOS RAJ does have to give weight to all of his rivals, but his short-head second in an Ayr handicap in September is form which reads well. Newcomer Groove Nation has to be of some interest too.
This can go to COSMOS RAJ, who will appreciate the drop in grade after acquitting himself well in competitive handicaps of late. Smart Deal may provide the chief threat.
(7) Monks Mead 5/1, Winner at Lingfield in July. Creditable second of 10 in nursery at Bath (8f, good to firm, 17/2) 55 days ago. Likely to give another good account. 7f win on turf in July; runner-up twice since; unexposed at 1m but needs further progress.

2nd (1) (9/1 +0%) Sneaky Blinder
9
9/1(+0%)
(1) Sneaky Blinder 9/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Sixth of 13 in minor event (100/1) at this course (7f) 26 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time for this handicap debut. Gelded. Latest run (7f here) was better; gelded since; more to come now handicapping in headgear.
3
4
3rd (4) (3/1 +14%) St Lukes Chelsea
3
3/1(+14%)
(4) St Lukes Chelsea 3/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Good fourth of 12 in nursery at Kempton (8f, 11/4) 22 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently. Blinkers on 1st time and he's one to consider. 0-5 but promise at Kempton last time and the addition of blinkers could give him a lift.
4
3
4th (3) (33/1 +0%) Battleofbaltimore
33
33/1(+0%)
(3) Battleofbaltimore 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 28/1, last of 18 in nursery at Leicester (6f, good) 28 days ago. Significantly up in trip now switched to polytrack. Others more persuasive. Promise on first two starts but harder to recommend on last three efforts; up in trip now.
5th
5
5th (5) (16/1 -14%) Makuri
16
16/1(-14%)
(5) Makuri 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 22/1, last of 6 in nursery at Windsor (10f, good to firm) 29 days ago. Makes polytrack debut and needs to raise her game. Beaten just one rival home in her four starts; AW may help but she's not a solid option.
6th

6th (2) (11/2 +39%) Beach Point
5.5
11/2(+39%)
(2) Beach Point 11/2, Thrice-raced maiden. 100/1, seventh of 9 in minor event at Yarmouth (6f, soft) 22 days ago. Significantly up in trip for this handicap debut. Uphill task. Down the field in 3 novices over shorter; makes nursery debut at a low level; more to come.
7th

7th (9) (250/1 -213%) First Encounter
250
250/1(-213%)
(9) First Encounter 250/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Last of 7 in minor event at Goodwood (9f, soft, 150/1) 23 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time now pitched into a handicap. BHA-rated 10 after three tailed-off efforts; cheekpieces not enough to tempt.
8th
6
8th (6) (9/2 -100%) Serendipitous Lady
4.5
9/2(-100%)
(6) Serendipitous Lady 9/2, Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 8-runner nursery (3/1) at Yarmouth (7f, soft) 22 days ago, overcoming pace bias. 5 lb rise by no means harsh and she's a big player. Improved for a visor/nurseries, winning well on turf latest; 1m should suit; more to come.
9th
8
9th (8) (4/1 +11%) Likleman
4
4/1(+11%)
(8) Likleman 4/1, 13/2, very good second of 10 in nursery at Leicester (8.2f, heavy) 21 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. Enters calculations. Best run when 2nd at Leicester three weeks ago (1m, soft); more needed but that's possible.
LTO Selection:
15:50 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
SERENDIPITOUS LADY stayed on well to win by a couple of lengths last month at Yarmouth and, although she has been put up 5lb for that success, she may have more to offer now the penny has dropped. Her third here in September suggests the surface is not an issue and she could get the better of the blinkered St Lukes Chelsea and Bath second Monks Mead.
The one who appeals most is SERENDIPITOUS LADY, who was a close third on her handicap bow here in September and subsequently improved again when opening her account at Yarmouth. She may well have more to offer now upped to a mile. Likleman produced his best effort yet when runner-up at Leicester 3 weeks ago and he is likely to emerge as the main danger. St Lukes Chelsea and Monks Mead are others to consider.

About U.K Horse Racing
Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.
There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.
The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.
Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.
In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.
Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
