2.47 Stratford – GRANDEUR D’AME (2pt win – 11/4 bet365, Paddy Power, 888sport, 5/2 generally)
BE AWARE’s patient running style is likely to leave him vulnerable on this pace-favouring track and it’s guesswork as to how he’ll react to the first-time hood. Take on the favourite with Alan King’s GRANDEUR D’AME, one of only a couple of prominent racers in this 2m3.5f Class 3 handicap chase. The nine-year-old has a great record when fresh, recording form figures on his racecourse debut or when rested for at least 150 days of 11131 (4-5) for a profit of £14.57 to a £1 level stake at SP. The sole reverse came in his reappearance in the 2022/23 season when a 6-1 third to Saint Segal at Chepstow (the 121-rated winner is now on a handicap mark of 148). He made all to scored by 17 lengths on his sole previous course outing and drops to Class 3 level for the first time since his 25-length romp at Wetherby in November 2023. RANGE also races prominently and looks the biggest threat.
7.15 Chelmsford – DARKSIDE PRINCE (1pt win – 100/30 bet365, 3/1 generally)
DARK SIDE PRINCE has gone almost 18 months since his last win, but he wasn’t beaten by far when fourth over course and distance last time and his stall 1 draw could swing it. Jessica Macey’s veteran can usually be relied upon to run his race granted a 5f trip in Class 6 company on the all-weather, recording form figures under such conditions of 231721111341164 (7-15) for a profit of £11.08 to a £1 level stake at SP, improving to 11111 (5-5) when drawn in stall 1, with three of the wins coming here at Chelmsford.
