Newsboy's racing tips for Thursday's four meetings, including Chelmsford Nap
FANTASTIC FOX can outwit his rivals in the Chelmsford City Racecourse Membership Handicap (8.00) over a mile.
Roger Varian’s five-year-old is on a hat-trick bid after scoring his first win in more than two years over course and distance in October.
The Frankel gelding is clearly in the form of his life, following up that victory with a fine score against 11 rivals at Newcastle 29 days ago, winning going away by a length.
While he may now be up 4lb there was more left in the tank the day and David Egan’s mount has an outstanding chance once again on the Chelmsford City Polytrack.
At Taunton, HEROS looks the part in the Dave Criddle Travel Handicap Chase (3.15) over two and a quarter miles.
The former French bumper and hurdle winner hardly set the world alight over hurdles last term, but appeared rejuvenated on his seasonal bow when making his chasing debut over course and distance 28 days ago.
Venetia Williams’ charge won by two and three-quarter lengths from Non Stop, while the third, Dr T J Eckleburg, who was more than seven lengths back, has delivered since.
The six-year-old can improve further and defy a 6lb penalty for his in-form yard.
