Chelmsford City Race 5 - Austin Super Handicap
CHAMPION AGAIN OLE (2) turned a corner this winter on the all weather gaining 1400m wins at Kempton Park and Wolverhampton three weeks ago. This test could be fine for him and looks hard to oppose. SILVER TRUMPET (3) provided fair form in better races than this on turf last season. Market will guide towards his chances returning to action. Veteran TIGER CRUSADE (1) has been busy this winter. Will find the drop in standard may help in getting back to form. Worth giving another chance. SHIMMERING SPIN (4) shed the maiden tag contesting a 1600m event here during September. Will have more of a chance now back down in trip.

Second-up. First-up after six months favourite; won by 1.0 len at Wolverhampton March 9 over 1400m defeating Pressure's On carrying 60.5kg at $2.80. Previously second-up 3rd in a small field at Catterick on May 24 over 1400m, 3.5 len behind Watch And Shoot carrying 59.5kg at $2.20. Clearly the one to beat again. Improver who can measure up again.
