Chelmsford City Race 3 - Tattersalls 40,000 EBF Novice Stakes (GBB Race)
I'LL BE BACK (2) Fresh after a spell. Flew home to win last run at Doncaster and having second career run. Shows good early pace. Massive hope. SPIRIT OF SAXONY (4) Placed 2nd last run at Kempton and matched against lesser competition. Should be swooping on the field late. Should be competitive in this race at a bit of odds. WIELD (6) Nice run when 3rd last start at the track and stepping down to a lower level. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Has a good draw. Respect in this event. AIGEAS (1) First up from a break of 20 weeks and was all too good winning by 1 1/4L first up last preparation at Deauville. Will be positive in the run early. Keep in mind.

First up from a break of 20 weeks and did a good job when winning by 1 1/4L first up last preparation at Deauville. Should muster plenty of early speed. Looks like solid value.

First up from a break of 22 weeks and solid effort when placing 2nd first up last preparation at Kempton. Likely to settle back in the field. Hard to recommend.

Came in 2nd last run at Kempton and competing at a lower level of competition. Will be hitting the line strongly. Can figure in the finish.

First up and competitive effort when 2nd first up last preparation at Curragh. Shows very good finishing speed. William T Buick rates highly and matched against less formidable competition. Stands out as good value.

Looked good when 3rd last start at this track and facing less formidable opponents. Expecting to settle positively. Will try to take advantage of the stall. Definite claims for punters.
