BIG COUNTRY (7.00) may not be the serious force of old but he retains enough ability to land the Class 4 handicap at Chelmsford City.

The seven-year-old went close here in August when trained by Jamie Osborne and has since re-joined previous trainer Mick Appleby. Connections would have been happy with Big Country's first run for the yard at Kempton when finding 1m 3f exposing his stamina limitations under the burden of 10-stone. He was still bang there over a furlong out before fading into a close-up fourth to No Nay Bella.

Favourite Power Of States has reeled off three straight  course and distance victories (dead-heat on last occasion) but it is only a matter of time before he is nailed by the handicapper. Meantime, he should remain competitive under a 5lb penalty.

Dense fog deprived KYLLA LOOKS (5.00) of a winning opportunity on her last intended start here but quick compensation awaits. Mike Murphy’s decision to fit cheek-pieces at Wolverhampton ten days ago was rewarded with a wide-margin victory and the filly can defy a penalty.

Alezan, a Bath winner in the summer, ran Fly The Nest close at Kempton over a mile eight days ago and should handle the drop in trip under Georgia Dobie.

      hopefully not a daft question?

      why have these (silly) off times started to creep in on uk racecards?

      understand for us but uk ?
      1.27 etc etc

      i thought it was to avoid races being run at the same time, giving the punters more time to bet between races, avoiding split screens etc. but looking at the times (12:20, 12:22…) i’m not sure the adjustments work for that idea so, bit pointless it seems.

    Plenty of aircraft journeys I notice for some people I noticed apart from the footballers

    Just saw that Hollie Doyle ,Ryan Moore and William Buick where all over in Hong Kong for the happy valley meeting!

    Hard life I’m thinking!

      Mark drakeford doesn’t like sport bus stop, still no fans allowed at any sport in Wales.
      If you fancy going to races I think Ludlow, haydock and maybe uttoxeter are in tier 2 and are taking in punterst, they are not too far from you.

    Good day without Jonjo anyway few winners have been had. Waiting on Glanjou for 20/1 treble

    Only €3 on but 20/1 is 20/1 , haha

    Never mind on Glanjou. At least Cobden gave it a decent ride, a little shorter distance next time probably do the trick

    • Avatar of Elvis Parsley

      Aye, usually find nicholls horses at small courses outside the weekend probably not his best.
      It won easy last time though but his lesser lights maybe not consistent.
