14/1
In flying form in the summer of 2015 but well-being has to be taken on trust after four very disappointing runs.

33/1
Finished last on final three starts and another who's well being has to be questioned. Doesn't look particularly well-handicapped even if returning to her best and inexperienced claimer booked.

Started the year with a bang but has been poor since. Didn't show much on debut for this yard last time out so others preferred.

Ran well at Wolverhampton on Wednesday, with a fast finishing second. Every chance if he turns up here.

7/2
C&D winner who bounced back to form with a win at Newcastle last time out. Top class jockey booked and ought to make his presence felt around here.

50/1
Has developed starting stalls issues and hasn't placed on his last ten starts so hard to fancy on that basis.

In good form around Chelmsford of late but handicapper appears to have caught with himi and Baker appears to have chosen Steelriver.

Out of form this year and probably better over the minimum distance.

Not won in 32 starts and finished last on debut for this yard so plenty to prove now.

Just one win from 18 starts and finishing nearer last than first in recent claimer makes him tough to fancy.

Forecasts

Steelriver (2/1), Florencio (7/2), Consulting (7/2), Dutch Golden Age (8/1), Mullionheir (14/1), September Issue (16/1), Masamah (25/1), Oeil De Tigre (33/1), Illegally Blonde (33/1), Fleckerl (50/1)

Verdict

STEELRIVER was arguably unlucky not to win at Wolverhampton on Thursday and should gain compensation if turning up here. Consulting won last time out and should be able to build on that. Dutch Golden Age has been a consistent performer around Chelmsford recently and there's no reason he won't be able to back that up at this track on the same surface. 1. Steelriver 2. Consulting 3. Dutch Golden Age
