Chelmsford City Race 4 - Fairwood Brasserie Handicap
SPENDMORE LANE (5) produced a dominant display when scoring by 5L over 1000m at Wolverhampton. He is full of confidence and can continue to win. WHENTHEDEALINSDONE (4) settled near the rear before finishing seventh contesting a 1200m event at Kempton Park last start. This looks more suitable. May bounce back from a poor effort. ARARAT (1) showed pace and was leading when turning for home tackling this trip at Wolverhampton before fading to be beaten 4.5L. Capable of better and is a definite winning hope. THURSO (2) finished fifth attempting 1200m here beaten 3.5L three weeks ago. Would not surprise to see in the mix.

Most recently faded in the straight 6th of 8 at Wolverhampton on February 16 over 1200m, 4.5 len behind Silky Wilkie carrying 56kg at $10. The start before that sat on the speed throughout before fading to run last of 10 at Southwell All Weather on January 20 over 1200m, 8 len behind Hundred Caps with 61kg at $8. Better than the last run and worth another chance.

Last start second last in a small field at this track on February 12 over 1200m, 3.5 len behind Dyrholaey carrying 57.5kg at $13. The race before that ran last of 8 at Wolverhampton on January 6 over 1400m, 6 len behind Echalar carrying 58kg at $15. Hard to fault if at his best.

Second run back. First-up after two months ran last of 7 at Kempton Park All Weather on February 25 over 1200m, 5 len behind Combustion with 61kg at $15. Previously second-up won by 0.5 len at Kempton Park All Weather July 3 over 1200m defeating Hierarchy carrying 59.5kg at $8.50. Hard to make a case in this line-up.

Chasing a hat-trick. Most recently favourite; scored a big 5 len win at Wolverhampton March 2 over 1000m defeating Gustav Graves with 58kg at $4. The race before that favourite; tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 1.5 len at this track February 21 over 1000m defeating Buraback carrying 56kg at $4. In great form and should be right in the thick of things again.
