Chelmsford City Race 3

Watch Live Racing At Bet365 Handicap

Prize Money: $12,915

This all revolves around IT'S TIM (1) who won at Bath before scoring again in fine style at Brighton earlier this week. Looks well-treated under the penalty and can complete a hat-trick up in trip. DROUTHY NEEBOR (3) rates next best on his first start since finishing second tackling 2800m at Nottingham in November. FORGLEN (5) could go well after a decent third-place finish over course and distance a week ago. FOINIX (2) heads the remainder.

Recent form sound. Most recently 3rd of 8 at this track on April 24 over 2800m, 1.3 len behind Smokey Malone with 57kg at $3.80. The run before that 4th of 10 at Southwell All Weather on April 8 over 2400m, 1.75 len behind Ana Emaraaty carrying 51.5kg at $12. Capable of building on that performance and he looks one of the main chances.
