Chelmsford City Race 8 - Watch Live Racing At Bet365 Handicap
LIGHTENING MANN (1) can defy top weight stepping up to 2000m on handicap debut. The Jack Channon trained gelding hit the line strongly among maiden company tackling 1600m at Lingfield and could be suited by this AW track. A stiffer stamina test might also bring out improvement from GLENRIDDING (8) who ran on willingly over 1600m on soft ground at Bath in October. Remains unexposed off this rating. RULING MASTER (4) is well-drawn in stall three and needs to be considered racing off 0.5kg lower than when third at Wolverhampton during December. Each-way claims go the way of LADY CHARTWELL (2).

Resuming after a seven months break. Finished off last preparation fourth of 11 at Salisbury August 15 over 1400m, 3.5 len behind Dear Cat carrying 58kg at $4. On debut second in a small field at Carlisle July 11 over 1400m, 0.8 len behind Serving With Style carrying 58kg at $3.30. Minor placing first-up so expect she will be thereabouts.

Second run back. First-up after five months 3rd of 8 at this track on March 8 over 2000m, 3 len behind Pantile Warrior with 60.5kg at $13. Previously second-up 2nd of 10 at Kempton Park All Weather on August 20 over 1600m, nose behind Notimeforchitchat with 60.5kg at $67. Should run well again and is definitely in the mix.

Resumes from a spell. Finished off last preparation seventh of 9 at Southwell All Weather November 21 over 1600m, 13 len behind Hallelujah U carrying 60.5kg at $12. On debut 12th of 14 at Curragh September 29 over 1800m, 10 len behind Shackleton with 60.5kg at $67. Hasn't shown much in short career to date and is hard to have.

Resumes from a spell. Finished off last preparation second last in a small field at Nottingham October 9 over 2000m, on heavy track; 38 len behind Gentle Warrior carrying 55kg at $7.50. On debut second of 11 at Redcar July 21 over 1400m, 1.5 len behind Brastias with 60.5kg at $7.50. Doubt he will have much to offer first up.
