Yearly Archives: 2022

Wynter Wildes has been a remarkable horse this year running consistently and often. She ran a career-best last time out on ground that was too quick and just three days after her previous run. This has been been the aim ever since and she should love the stiff track.

The Mouse King won very nicely at Southwell ten days ago and he was put up 13lb for that in yesterday's new ratings. That looked harsh and it forced us to run here with a 6lb penalty. Sam Feilding claims 7lb again and he will need to win today to justify that big rise.

Fen Tiger has ben running well since he has been stepped up in trip. Ideally he is best on soft turf but that isn't happening anytime soon. He is in great form and this looks a weak race. Ross Birkett riding is a big advantage so he should be thereabouts if he gets this longer…

Czech Her Out has plenty of recent placed form on her card but the latest run here last month behind in-form top-weight Sheila Nash was very disappointing. Hopefully she can get back to the earlier form in which case she would have each-way chances again.

Harbour Vision found in-form Helm Rock too good at Wolverhampton last time but beat the rest well enough. He joins Ebury here and there might not be too much between them at the finish.

Don't Tell Claire has had no luck this season and once again has a tricky draw. She is becoming well handicapped.

Andaleep has been in great form and seeks a hat-trick though this is tougher. He has good course and distance form and should run his race once more.

Done great this season - winning her last two. Up just 2lbs for the last of those and been very versatile in term of trip - winning over 5 1/2f and last time over 1m 1/2f. Over a mile here is fine and should have a decent chance of landing the three-timer.

Atrium ran very well off a slow pace last time in a race that looks hot. He should love Newbury and the softer ground will definitely suit. He is bouncing

Mrs Meader has been waiting for some rain since her hood win at Newbury, Leicester seems to have got the rain which is ideal. She is in great form at home and runs well fresh. Sean Kirrane knows her well and takes off a handy 3lb. She should be thereabouts again.

Delighted with her this season - winning her last three and has improved 13lbs as a result. Up another 6lbs for her Ascot win at the Shergar Cup. But is up to 7f here today (from 6f) so hoping the extra furlong will bring out more improvement. More on her plate, but continues to surprise…

Ran ok off a long break at Newcastle recently, but has been showing more speed at home and I think this drop back in trip will suit him. He is well drawn too so we can be positive. I’m hopeful of a decent run.

6 time winner and a CD winner here at the track too. Faded over this trip here last time (just 4 days ago) but a slightly better draw here in 1 as likes to race up with the pace. Sir Gregory the one to beat but hopeful of a better run than last time, with…

Engrave loves it at Chelmsford and ran surprisingly well last week when we thought she wasn’t fit. She has now dropped to a very good mark by running at other tracks through the Summer. She should have a good ew chance with Dylan Hogan back on board.

Did well at the start of the year but has rather lost his way a bit in last few runs - ran too free two starts ago. First run here at Chelmsford and dropped a few pounds, plus Rhys takes off another 3lbs. Is better than last showings but needs to bounce back so probably…

Has been very consistent but not won as many as I thought she would. Last time she looked like she would have no problem getting further so we have decided to give 12 furlongs a crack. She likes a small field and Wolves will suit well.

Looks our best chance of getting something on the day. Has won three of his 13 starts, including last time out at Lingfield. Did it nicely that day by just over 2 lengths and up just 5lbs for that. Up to 1m4f (from 1m2f) but ran on very well last time to think the extra…

Since returning to action this year Harmonious has been well beaten in all four starts. His mark has come down a long way as a result and back to 1m4f he could suddenly bounce back. That said, the odds suggest otherwise!

The Mouse King has been riunning well on the all-weather and looks like he can win off this handoicap mark. Sam Feilden is on board today and his 7lb claim will be a big help. Good each-way chance.

Helm Rock won well last time under Nicola and while ideally he wants soft ground, we think he should be fine on this surface. He is up 7lb tonight but remains in great form after Carlisle and it's his last chance to run in a 0-75 for a while - we hope!
