Verdict
TRUE BELIEF has been thereabouts in handicaps since winning a maiden at Windsor last year and was beaten less than a length over today’s trip at Chelmsford last time. He looks worth another chance given previous winner Classic Star and Phoenix Star both finished behind with Brett Johnson’s charge expected to confirm superiority. The Establishment posted a much better effort at Wolverhampton last month having slowly slid down the weights while Para Mio’s recent second came over a shorter trip at Southwell though he’s back on a winning mark.
