Chelmsford City Race 5 - Betfair Ebf Restricted Novice Stakes (Gbb Race) (Div 2)
ACCLAIMED FREEDOM (1) was not disgraced debuting with a 5L fourth contesting a small field 1200m soft ground novice event at Ascot. Progress expected. Serious player. MICK FROM TIPP (2) shaped with credit first up recording a 3L fifth in a 1400m maiden at Lingfield AW. Makes appeal. ATHENA'S WAR (7) holds claims on paper. The two-year-old filly Catholic Boy from Sky Garden provides debut. Interesting. MR NIPPY (3) might feature.

At debut, got back early in a small field at Ascot on September 5 over 1200m, on a slow track; 5 len behind Watcha Snoop with 58.5kg at $13. Improver who looks ideally placed here. Can go on with it here.

Having third race start. At big odds at debut, led to the turn then faded 5th of 12 at Kempton Park All Weather on August 11 over 1400m, 5.5 len behind Miss Pretty carrying 57kg at $29. Last start ran last of 8 at Lingfield All Weather on August 26 over 1400m, 44 len behind Lyra Lea with 58kg at $26. Needs to lift.
