Chelmsford City Race 2 - Bet365 Best Odds Guaranteed Handicap

PAYMENT PLAN (3) had barely put a foot wrong in recent starts until blowing out at Newcastle last time. Finished first-past the post before being demoted to second (caused interference) at Wolverhampton prior. Might have what it takes for a return to winning ways in first-time cheekpieces. STAR LEGEND (1) was denied a head tackling this trip at Southwell recently. Will go close if bouncing back from a lesser effort. Similar comments apply to BLUE SKY BOY (2) who may get involved adopting cheekpieces and leaving behind a below-par run at Southwell. THE COLORIST (4) cannot be dismissed.
