Chelmsford City Race 2 - Club Restaurant & Lounge Selling Stakes
CRISTO (1) disappointed on most recent appearance finishing eighth in a Lingfield Park AW handicap over 2000m. Holds winning form at this venue and lower in distance improvement is expected. HITCHED (2) was racing consistently with one win and three runner-up efforts in four starts before finishing fifth last time out at Lingfield Park AW a fortnight ago. Can rediscover winning ways. ZOFFANDIA (4) was an impressive 4.5L winner providing latest outing attempting a Kempton Park AW handicap eight days ago. Receiving the same handicap mark could double up. EPICTETUS (6) will improve after finishing eleventh at Lingfield Park AW previously.
