robertob Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Re: NAP of the day | Sunday 1st Feb 13.50 Chelmsford: Class 4 Handicap, 1 mile - Bow And Arrow: Back after half year absence. Won maiden back in August nicely, drawing clear. Should take to new trip. Fair opening mark. - Thanksgiving Day: Consistent miler. Neck beaten last month at Lingfield, won well off 8lb lower at Kempton good Nursery. Wants to lead. - Golden Highway: Fair debut winner over CD ten days ago. Probably wants further in time. Will enjoy good pace. - Logorrheic: Good maiden winner at Kempton in November. Off since. Interesting little race which does evolve around the odds-on favourite. Bow And Arrow won well a 7f Kempton maiden back in August last year, a form that works out fairly well. He looked that day not the speediest but drew clear in the final furlong, suggesting that a step up in trip will suit, so does his pedigree. So up in trip today must be a plus. Question mark is obviously fitness and if he has trained on over the winter. Also while his opening mark looks fair, it is not a given that he is really up to, as the maiden he won, was a rather dismal one. Potentially this will be a pretty fast ride, which most of the four runners enjoying to be up with the pace if not making it all. Thanksgiving Day has excellent form in his book and was just narrowly denied at Lingfield recently. Another 2lb up for that, but he is likely to give another good account and at least is one who is trusted to be up to his current mark. Golden Highway and Logorrheic both won maiden races, while the later one has been off since Novembr after his Kempton win, when he enjoyed very much the run of the race. An opening mark may not beyond him, but doesn’t look overly generous either. Same applies for Golden Highway, who has been allotted a mark off 78 for his recent course and distance success. However he’s the least exposed and showed good attitude here last time. A race probably not quite run to suit him from a pace perspective, he battled hard and drew clear eventually. He may need further fairly soon, should however enjoy the likely good pace today. If he is up to his opening remains to be seen as he didn’t beat much here last time. In this rather open looking race, he’s the 6/1 outsider of the field, and that looks too big. Selection: Golden Highway @ 6/1 VC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arsenalfh Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Re: NAP of the day | Sunday 1st Feb 2:50 Chelmsford With the backing of Russian millionaires John Best has better facilities to work with including a new 5f AW gallop. Stone of Folca was a classy horse in the past and is now racing off a very low mark of 78. I'm hoping with the new gallop and Kirby booked this we will see a return to form here and I reckon he should go very close in a class 4 event.
