Plenty of racing today.  The meetings at Newcastle and Chelmsford on the all weather have plenty of declared runners today.  Lots of trainers make use of the all weather tracks,  plenty of trainers from all over the UK, and a number of trainers from Ireland also use the all weather tracks in the UK,  as well as Dundalk in Ireland.

As the heatwave continues, small fields are very relevant.  I have always believed racehorses do not really like very fast ground on the turf, the same rule applies when the ground is very soft/heavy in mid winter. It can be a slog sometimes when it is heavy, it is usually a case of acting on it better than others, rather than enjoying it.

I like the look of one today at Chelmsford.  With no ground change issues, hopefully it can win for my subscribers and give another day of profit.
