Horse of the Day

Chelmsford hosts Thursday's Horse of the Day, where we fancy Foie Gras to run a well measured race in the 6:10pm.

It's a venue that this 8-year-old gelding has enjoyed in the past - winning three times and placing seven times from 19 outings, and it's worth noting that all three of those wins cames at this distance as well, so he is a three times Course+Distance winner - all at standard going.

Going today off just 1lb looks a very fair mark, and being back on the all-weather is another bonus, with all his success being achieved away from turf.

Trainer Chris Dwyer has an excellent record in all weather handicaps - 91 wins from 571 starters since 2013 for a healthy +163pts at Betfair SP. The majoritiy of that profit has been banked at this venue (+121pts)

With a bit of a market slide this morning, the 9/2 on offered with SportingBet ooks well worth backing (with BOG of course).

1pt Foie Gras to win the 6:10pm at Chelmsford at 9/2 with Sporting Bet.
