Tip for this race
All today's tips ›Jenson Benson looks the one to side with in this wide-open 14-runner Class 6 contest over ten furlongs at Chelmsford, where his progressive profile gets the nod over the top-rated runner. He sits only four pounds behind Saahir on our figures, so the gap is small enough for improvement to overturn it. Saahir is the obvious danger as the highest-rated runner, while Far Far Out and Muy Muy Loco are also feasible, and confidence is low in such a competitive field. Jenson Benson is the selection.

Jenson Benson arrives in cracking nick, second last time out and a winner two starts back, with a second three starts back to boot. He has run over today's trip and on the going, and a 30-day break is the only minor query from draw 3.

Fresh from a run ten days ago, Saahir has run over today's trip and going, and our rating has him top of the 14 runners, though he's yet to win in his last five starts and has finished unplaced in his last two.

Poke The Bear has been consistent without troubling the judge, finishing fifth last time out and a fourth two starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going. A 132-day layoff and 134 lb from draw 9 temper enthusiasm, and he is yet to win in his last six.

Harry Davies
Simon Dow 0/7
Muy Muy Loco has run over today's trip and going and returns fresh after 21 days, while our rating of 58 ranks him fourth of 14 and sits above his official 52. The risk is a winless run in recent starts, including an eighth last time out.

Gifts Differing was fifth last time out, 23 days ago, and bagged a second three starts back, but she is winless in her last six and has run over today's trip and going before. Carrying 131 lb from draw 4, she looks a mid-pack type on our 56 rating.

Celtic Spirit arrives in good heart after finishing second last time out and second two starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going, but he is yet to win in his last six starts. Our rating of 53 ranks him ninth of 14, and 130 lb from stall five leaves little margin.

William Carson
Tony Carroll 1/37
Far Far Out arrives fresh from a second last time out just eight days ago, has run over today's trip and going, and his 59 rating ranks third of 14 against an official mark of 52. The main risk is a yard that is out of form at 1/37 over the last fortnight, with him still winless in his last six.

Jim Boyle 0/9
Bennyworth is winless in his last six, though a sixth last time out, nine days ago, and fourths three and five starts back show he's rarely disgraced; he has run over today's trip and going. A 127 lb burden from stall two and a run of eighths keep the ceiling modest.

Liberty Bird showed a little more when fourth last time out 21 days ago, and she has run over today's trip and going, but she's winless in her last six and was a seventh and a ninth in the runs before. Our rating of 52 ranks her tenth of 14, off 127 lb from stall 11.

James Owen 15/57
Labiche has been consistent without breaking through, finishing fourth last time out and a third five starts back, and he has run on today's going before, though he is winless in his last five and turns out again just three days later. A sharp yard (15/57 in the last fortnight) helps, while our rating of 54 puts him eighth of 14.

Mrs Ilka Gansera-Leveque 1/1
Lady Aiyana is winless in her last five, though a fourth last time out and a second two starts back show some promise; a 70-day break and a lowly 13th-of-14 ranking on our figures make her hard to fancy, even with experience of today's trip and going.

This Rib is winless in his last six, finishing fourth last time out but no better than fourth in that spell, and he's ranked 12 of 14 on our figures. In his favour, he has run on today's going and had a 34-day break, while he lines up from stall 1.

Echo That is hard to fancy, beaten in all five recent starts including a ninth last time out and a seventh three starts back, and she is rated bottom of the 14 on our figures. She has run over today's trip and going, and is back after 24 days, but little else stands out.
