Chelmsford City Race 3 - Easter Leather Anniversary Cup Maiden Stakes (GBB Race)
SHADOW BOXER (12) was an expensive purchase. Closely related to several pattern performers while stable produced a fine winter all over the world. Finds a good opportunity to make the perfect beginning to his career. PENTONVILLE (10) needed the run on debut. Produced a better performance at Kempton Park four weeks ago and open to improvement sets the standard. POINT OF LAW (11) is first foal from an excellent Royal family. Dam won at listed level and rates a likely chance. KIMBARA (7) was never involved on debut at Newcastle. This trip could suit much better on pedigree and is worth giving another chance.
