Chelmsford City Race 3 - Bet365 Bet Boost Handicap (Div 1)

Market could prove a useful guide. Changing stables and first-time hood could bring about improvement from the unexposed TOP STAR (5) who ran well when a close fourth over 1000m at Wolverhampton in September. Will appreciate going back up 200m. DARK SORCERESS (6) must be respected on her first outing since filling the runner-up spot over course and distance in October. Other likely dangers include handicap newcomer OLYMPIC MELODY (3) showing ability in three qualifying runs last season and fellow stable debutant WATKINS (4).
