4:38 Chester Tips

Has two good wins on the all??'weather, and lately ran poorly at Newmarket back on turf, so does need to bounce back. This tight track may well suit better. Has won from the front, so we may see a forceful tactic again that will suit this track.

Chased the leader at Newmarket for the win and Folk Pageant is not exposed off 3 lb rise and looks capable of more.

Arrives in good form, having finished 2nd at Epsom in April and winning at Salisbury last week. A similar performance should see her there or thereabouts today.

Trainer's favourite track and he has had a lot of success here. Upped in trip on handicap debut here and has been gelded since last seen. Decent fancy.

Timber Twelve missed out on his treble last time but can make amends here with Tom jockey Billy Loughnane taking the ride to encourage a strong finish.

Yet to win but ran a few decent races last year. Tamely ridden last time out after being badly hampered and is 2 lbs lower today. This step up in trip can suit.

Was a winner on debut at Southwell in January but followed that with a last-place finish at Yarmouth in April. Has been gelded since and is on a competitive mark for handicap debut. Holds an each-way chance.

Carwyns' mark is edging down to where he has placed on this going before, so he’s not completely out of it. He has been below form recently, but to me he looks suited by this 1m2f, and he does run well on both heavy and good, which gives him some wiggle room here.
