Chelmsford City Race 6

Betfair Plays Different Handicap

Stake: $14,723

JUNO STAR (6) shed the maiden tag on fourteenth career attempt in latest outing scoring by 0.5L at Southwell AW last week. Remains on the same winning mark and can double up. SHALAA ASKER (5) placed previous two occasions over course and distance including a third two starts back before finishing runner-up in latest seven days ago. May go one better. SIR RODNEYREDBLOOD (2) also brings consistent form with two placed efforts. Third on most recent appearance tackling 1200m at this track last time and will be thereabouts. DARK SIDE PRINCE (3) cannot be discounted holding winning form at this venue.
