5/1, improved on recent efforts to win 7-runner handicap at this course (7f) 7 days ago. Carries penalty. Should remain competitive.

10/1, respectable ninth of 16 in handicap at York (7.9f, good to firm) 46 days ago. Seemingly just going through the motions of late but is becoming attractively handicapped in this lower grade.

Lightly-raced maiden. 13/2, very good second of 13 in handicap at this course (10f) 21 days ago. Visor on 1st time. Has to be taken seriously dropped back in trip.

9/2, third of 4 in seller at this course (10f) 35 days ago. Visor on 1st time. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

100/1, first run since leaving Harry Eustace when eleventh of 12 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 22 days ago. Needs to leave that form well behind to figure.

Thrice-raced maiden. 7/4, first run since leaving Raphael Freire when fourth of 7 in novice at Southwell (7.1f) 24 days ago. Opening mark looks stiff but she was well backed last time, so any further market support would be of note.

Beauty By My Sidep117
Age: 3|  Weight: 9-7| J: Cieren Fallon| T: J Parr| OR:  71
Looked to be going the wrong way before getting back on track with third of 9 in handicap at Kempton Park (22/1) last month. Not at same level when seventh of 13 in handicap at Yarmouth (8f, good to firm) 17 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Good second of 9 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good) last month but found his run of good form coming to a halt in first-time blinkers when eighth of 10 in handicap at Brighton (8f, good, 3/1) 24 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Good second over C&D on penultimate start but not the most consistent type and was only ninth of 12 in handicap (9/1) at Newcastle (8f) 21 days ago. Others preferred.

Forecasts

Waiting All Night (3/1), Summer Heat (4/1), Sheikh Raj (9/2), Luminoso (8/1), Theme Park (8/1), Dalmally (8/1), Divine Legacy (10/1), Pacifist (16/1), Beauty By My Side (20/1), Penfolds Grange (25/1)

19:15 Chelmsford City - 23 October 2025 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

SUMMER HEAT bumped into a thriving sort over 10f here earlier in the month and gets the nod dropped back to 1m with the eye-catching booking of Murphy. Sheikh Raj produced an encouraging effort from a long way back at Ayr last time and is also shortlisted alongside Waiting All Night, who remains potentially well treated under a penalty.
