Horse racing predictions: Leicester, Wincanton and Chelmsford

Racing on Thursday is on the turf at Market Rasen, Leicester, Wincanton, Thurles, Chelmsford and on all-weather at Chelmmsfied. Venetia Williams is looking to score for the first time in the UK at Leicester.

Enda McElhinney's horse racing predictions for Thursday are below. He predicts Leicester, Wincanton and Chelmsford.

Georges Saint has not won in the UK in four attempts. He finished second at Bangor-on-Dee in November. Venetia Williams' horses are running well at the moment. If rain falls before the meeting at Leicester, it will help Georges St. to improve.

Hiway One O Three recorded a hat-trick of wins over hurdles at the back end of last season. He scored at Carlisle, Fakenham and Plumpton. This will be the Chris Gordon runner’s second appearance over fences. Alice Stevens can claim 3lb off his back.

Ellie Piper needs to bounce back from a disappointing performance at Wolverhampton on the all-weather last month. Ellie Piper finished last of 11 runners in a 5f contest. The filly scored for the second time in 2022 when she landed a handicap contest over this distance at Wolverampton back in September.
