Timeform highlight two horses of interest at Chelmsford this evening.
ALFRED COVE - 18:30 Chelmsford
Alfred Cove hasn’t won for nearly a year, but he arrives in good form having found only one rival too strong on his last two starts, and he was well backed at Wolverhampton on his latest start in March.
He didn’t get the best of starts that day, but he was rushed up to soon be prominent, and he split two next-time-out winners, so the form has a strong look to it. He is still 3 lb below his last winning mark and seems sure to launch another bold bid.
THE AFRICAN QUEEN - 20:30 Chelmsford
This looks a good three-year-old handicap and one which The African Queen is taken to quickly supplement her Brighton success nine days ago.
She showed improved form to make a winning handicap debut, making it three wins from five starts, and impressing with how strong she was at the finish given the pull she took in the early stages. The return to the all-weather will be no problem and there should be quite a bit more to come from her at this trip.
