Charging Thunder looks the one to beat in this Chelmsford staying contest, with our rating of 94 putting him a significant seven pounds clear of Brosna Town and well ahead of the remainder, and that gap should tell over the 14 furlongs on the all-weather. Brosna Town, on 87, is the chief danger and the only rival who really gets close on our figures, while Gemmari and Lady Ridgewood, rated 79 and 78, would need to improve to make it a contest. Mother Dear and Big Bear Hug look to have plenty to find at this level. Charging Thunder is the selection.
