Chelmsford Placepot tips: Paul Kealy's perm for the £50,000 guaranteed pool on Thursday

We've reached the stage of the year when the Tote picks a competitive low-grade all-weather meeting over small-field jumps action for their Placepot guarantee, so it's off to Chelmsford for the perm.

Magic Glow has the best form in the opener (5.00) and Mrs Dowley showed promise on her debut three days ago, so they look the safest options.

It's hard to know what to expect in the next (5.30) from Needlepoint, but her win 511 days ago in France is miles better than anything in this small field can offer, so she should be a banker for the first two.

The next (6.00) is a deal tougher, but Ultramarine was a big eyecatcher dropped to 6f last time and will appreciate going back up to 7f, while Riot won this last year and is back to his best all-weather track having run well at a huge price at Wolverhampton last time.

I won't pretend to have a big opinion on a dreadfully trappy nursery (6.30), so will go with three: Respiro Solitario (who went well for Jack Doughty last time), Flaine and Advertorial.

The in-form Kessaar Power is first pick in the mile handicap (7.00). I'll add Elterwater, who looks worth a try dropped in trip after a break.

There's another tricky heat to finish (7.30), with Flying Fletcher and She's Centimental the two who appeal most.
