Chelmsford City Race 3 - Betfair Plays Different Nursery
THANH NAM (7) bids to turn a pair of runner-up efforts into a win after placing second in a 2000m contest at this venue before filling the same spot at Southwell AW. May go one better. DIAMOND ALI (5) recorded a career best when second on fifth and latest appearance in a 1400m contest at Leicester last month losing out by 0.75L. Expected to challenge once again. MALI STAR (2) is yet to place in four career outings. Finished fifth on most recent appearance tackling a Southwell AW handicap. Possibilities. LAPIDARIST (1) rounds out the shortlist after failing to place in four career attempts. Might have a chance with a claiming jockey on board.

At the latest run second last in a small field at Newmarket (Rowley) on November 1 over 1800m, 11 len behind Gaspacho carrying 51.5kg at $21. The race before that 6th of 9 at Great Yarmouth on October 6 over 1400m, 4.5 len behind Stay Sharp with 61kg at $8.50. Better than recent form suggests and she can improve sharply.

Recent form sound. Returns from a 30-day let-up. Last start 2nd of 8 at Leicester on October 28 over 1400m, slow going 0.8 len behind Hear The Drums with 58.5kg at $4. The run before that made ground from midfield; 4th of 14 at Leicester on October 7 over 1200m, 2.5 len behind Arry Up carrying 56kg at $9.50. Heading in the right direction and looks hard to beat.
