Chelmsford City Race 2 - All Weather Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
BEAGLE BAY (1) shaped with plenty of promise on debut when beaten a head over 1600m at Newbury. That experience will stand him in good stead. Natural improvement makes him the one to beat. DIFFERENT OPINIONS (4) delivers his first appearance for the Karl Burke yard. The three year old colt by Dandy Man out of Betsey Trotter profiles nicely. Market strength would heighten confidence. BUMAAN (3) is another debutant. By New Bay. Trained by George Boughey. Monitor closely in the betting. WIELD (6) returns after finishing last in a small field debuting over 1400m at Salisbury. Will need to show more.
