Thursday cards on the all-weather from Chelmsford CRC and Newcastle.
At Newcastle, Phoenix Star should go close at wipes yer face prices (20.30). A tad unlucky on last two runs meeting up with the progressive Bonito Cavallo and the well handicapped Man On A Mission. Nothing of that ilk here, and, with favourite Elzaal having to do it off the far side Jess Macey's charge should be thereabouts under Tommy Jakes.
A bit underwhelming so far this week after those three winners last week. We'll look to get back amongst the returns with a selection from each today.
Back in the morning around 8.30 am.
BOL (Best Of Luck!) with any of your betting selections today.

Today's Selections
Chelmsford 16.05
6f sprint at CRC where low drawn prominent types have a strong bias.
Come On Girl a long term tracker who hasn't won since 2022 a consideration but 8-0-2 at the track.
Will look to Simon Hodgson's THANK THE LORD to maintain early promise and a dual winner here.
Will pass over that poor run at Lingfield LTO, over the 5f, and look for some 'bouncebackability' here where he hacked up ahead of Kitbag who won NTO.
Finlay Marsh does the steering and widely on at 8's with the regulation THREE paying places.
Chelmsford 16.05 - Thank The Lord (Full Stakes Challenge)
Newcastle 19.00
Flash The Dash being made favourite but easy to take on drawn box 1 on the far side.
Jedd O'Keeffe's Dream Together one to be taking out and soon to be looking at with this prep run for an early turf bid.
Will opt for the old time ATHOLLBAIR BOY who should be capable of following up with just 3lb added for that last success.
Gets on well with Faye McManoman and looks to have the sign over current market mover Thaki on 3 previous H2H's this year.
There's a best 6's with the regulation THREE paying places with Hills, Victor & Corals.
Newcastle 19.00 - Athollblair Boy (Full Stakes Challenge)

Double boom!
Very rare that I didn't put the double on too, that would've been a nice bonus
