0.83
0.83/1(-14%)
(3) Razeyna 0.83/1, Taking winning debut at Newbury in April. Third of 9 in minor event at Newcastle (7.1f, 11/10) 18 days ago, conceding first run. That run can be excused and she remains with potential.

4th (6) (6/1 +14%) Postwick
6
6/1(+14%)
(6) Postwick 6/1, Promising type. Fifth of 11 in minor event (12/1) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 29 days ago, nearest finish. Very much the type to progress with experience.
(1) Aqwaam 40/1, Left Roger Varian's stable for 45,000 gns after a fair debut and not at that level on reappearance 12 days ago.

2
8th (2) (22/1 -57%) Glory And Honour
22
22/1(-57%)
(2) Glory And Honour 22/1, Bumper winner and fairly useful handicap hurdler forTom Lacey, leaving that yard for £30,000 in May 2022. Trip could be sharp-enough on this Falt debut but he clearly possesses share of ability.
8
9th (8) (80/1 +0%) Highland Lass
80
80/1(+0%)
(8) Highland Lass 80/1, 1,000 gns 2-y-o, Highland Reel filly. Half-sister to winner up to 1¾m Fragrant Belle. Dam 1m winner out of winner up to 9f (2-y-o 1m winner) Queen of Norway.
LTO Selection:
14:01 Chester Stakes (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(4) Origintrail 1.62/1, Improving well, winning 6f Ripon maiden in good style 3 weeks ago despite still looking rough around the edges. Can go on progressing now handicapping.
1
2nd (1) (8/1 +20%) Princess Shabnam
8
8/1(+20%)
(1) Princess Shabnam 8/1, Dual winner last year and better performance on second run back this term. Needs a bit more from this draw here, however.
6
3rd (6) (16/1 -14%) Russellinthebushes
16
16/1(-14%)
(6) Russellinthebushes 16/1, Won 5f nursery here in September. Ridden patiently and well held in C&D handicap on return and could do better this time.
9
4th (9) (14/1 -27%) Pepper Streak
14
14/1(-27%)
(9) Pepper Streak 14/1, Off the mark at Newcastle (5f) in February and good second at Nottingham next time. Down the field there next time though and work to do back up in trip here.
8
5th (8) (3/1 -9%) Esken Rose
3
3/1(-9%)
(8) Esken Rose 3/1, Impressive when making all in 6f Pontefract novice on debut in September. Better for run on return there behind Origintrail and could last longer on handicap debut.
5
6th (5) (16/1 -60%) Red Showgirl
16
16/1(-60%)
(5) Red Showgirl 16/1, Dual AW winner. Well held in hot Lingfield contest on Good Friday and this is potentially easier, although she must prove effectiveness on turf.
2
7th (2) (20/1 +0%) Silken Petals
20
20/1(+0%)
(2) Silken Petals 20/1, Did well over sprint trips last term, winning twice. Highest draw to overcome on return but has Franny Norton up.
7
8th (7) (6.5/1 +7%) Fabiosa
6.5
6.5/1(+7%)
(7) Fabiosa 6.5/1, Won at Nottingham early on last season and some good runs since, including at Windsor 19 days ago. Should go forward from stall 1 and she's not discounted.
3
9th (3) (25/1 -79%) Torvi
25
25/1(-79%)
(3) Torvi 25/1, Won 5.7f Bath maiden in July. Struggled at Goodwood next time and work to do now handicapping back from 9 months off.
LTO Selection:
14:35 Chester Handicap (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(2) Spirit Mixer 1.75/1, Son of Frankel who resumed winning ways at Salisbury (14f) at the start of the month and emphatically followed up at Chelmsford (13.3f) 9 days ago, leading on bridle 1f out and staying on strongly. Not ruled out for all the handicapper has had his say.
8
2nd (8) (8/1 +43%) Chase The Dollar
8
8/1(+43%)
(8) Chase The Dollar 8/1, Made a sound start on AW for new yard, going in again over 2m at Kempton in March. Didn't last home (made rapid headway early final circuit) in the Chester Plate subsequently and this drop back in trip will hold no fears.
5
3rd (5) (5.5/1 +8%) Fox Vardy
5.5
5.5/1(+8%)
(5) Fox Vardy 5.5/1, Hasn't tasted success since bolting up on his respective return almost 2 years ago but did shape as if retaining all his ability when third on return/yard debut at Lingfield (13f) 3 weeks ago. On a handy mark if building on that. Cheekpieces reached for.
3
4th (3) (7/1 +50%) Wise Eagle
7
7/1(+50%)
(3) Wise Eagle 7/1, Enjoyed a smashing 2021, winning six times in bumpers/on Flat. Back on the scoreboard at Newcastle (12.5f) in March but not scaled same heights more recently.
4
5th (4) (6/1 +20%) Old Port
6
6/1(+20%)
(4) Old Port 6/1, Most progressive following switch to handicaps on AW, making it 4 wins from last 5 starts at Wolverhampton (12.2f) last month. Third boosted that form since and he's interesting from 2 lb higher now stamina is drawn out further. Turf debut.
9
6th (9) (20/1 +20%) Mancini
20
20/1(+20%)
(9) Mancini 20/1, Has the ability to defy this sliding mark but he's not threatened in a trio of starts so far this year and others arrive with more compelling claims. One of 3 from this yard.
6
7th (6) (6.5/1 -44%) Heart Of Soul
6.5
6.5/1(-44%)
(6) Heart Of Soul 6.5/1, Better signs when fourth in a refitted visor here (12.3f) 3 weeks ago and similar form to land handicaps at Hamilton/Kempton (both at 12f) subsequently. Clearly in fine fettle and longer trip is within reach. Visor goes back on.
1
8th (1) (12/1 +14%) Speedo Boy
12
12/1(+14%)
(1) Speedo Boy 12/1, Deservedly back to winning ways at Ascot (2m) in July prior to creditable placed efforts in handicaps at Nottingham/Newmarket. Ended last term below best but interesting what the market makes of him on return.
LTO Selection:
15:10 Chester Handicap (Class 3) 13f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
(7) Boardman 1.38/1, Completed hat-trick in this race last season and 2 wins from 4 runs this year, career best when winning 7-runner handicap at Thirsk (7f, good to firm, 13/8) 14 days ago with more in hand than the bare margin suggests. In terrific form so has to be taken seriously from low draw.
9
2nd (9) (6.5/1 +46%) Mykonos St John
6.5
6.5/1(+46%)
(9) Mykonos St John 6.5/1, Kept busy at York this month and not disgraced when seventh of 20 last week. This sharper track may not be ideal.
4
3rd (4) (25/1 -56%) Spirit Of Light
25
25/1(-56%)
(4) Spirit Of Light 25/1, Useful gelding in the UAE who scored over 7f at Abu Dhabi in November. However, cut little ice on yard debut at Ascot 3 weeks ago.
8
4th (8) (7/1 -17%) Oh This Is Us
7
7/1(-17%)
(8) Oh This Is Us 7/1, Veteran who bagged a Listed and Group 3 event in the first half of 2021. Signs of decline since, though showed he can still be competitive from this sort of mark when third at Haydock on penultimate start and is a dual C&D winner.
6
5th (6) (5.5/1 -57%) Fools Rush In
5.5
5.5/1(-57%)
(6) Fools Rush In 5.5/1, Enjoyed a fruitful campaign last season, scoring 4 times, including over C&D in August. Shaped well when fourth here on return and entitled to build on that.
5
6th (5) (8/1 -7%) Tomfre
8
8/1(-7%)
(5) Tomfre 8/1, Seven wins from 26 Flat runs. All the better for return when seventh of 13 in handicap at York (7f, good to soft) 7 days ago and could build on that again eased 2 lb.
11
7th (11) (22/1 +33%) Devilwala
22
22/1(+33%)
(11) Devilwala 22/1, Ended last term out of sorts for David Loughnane and not much encouragement for new yard this season.
2
8th (2) (50/1 -127%) Pensiero D'amore
50
50/1(-127%)
(2) Pensiero D'amore 50/1, Winner at Kempton in March, but that's very much a standout effort this term, never a threat back on turf at Newmarket 2 weeks ago.
10
9th (10) (20/1 +9%) Gabrial The Wire
20
20/1(+9%)
(10) Gabrial The Wire 20/1, Back to form from out of the blue to end 2021 with a 7f Doncaster success (heavy) in October. C&D winner who shaped as if needing the run after 6 months off here 24 days ago, also not seen to best effect having been caught wide.
1
|S| (1) (150/1 -275%) Humanitarian
150
150/1(-275%)
(1) Humanitarian 150/1, Smart on his day for John Gosden but seen out only 3 times since September 2020 and both starts for this stable were underwhelming.
3
10th (3) (25/1 -127%) Azano
25
25/1(-127%)
(3) Azano 25/1, Useful up to 1m and made all in listed event at Redcar in October. Didn't look at home at this track last summer, however.
LTO Selection:
15:45 Chester Handicap (Class 2) 8f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
(6) Self Praise 1.88/1, Twilight Son colt who benefited from his initial experience when runner-up at this course 23 days ago. That form has been boosted three times since, so he may be able to open his account at the third attempt.
2
(2) (4.5/1 +10%) Drafted
4.5
4.5/1(+10%)
(2) Drafted 4.5/1, Six-figure yearling who left the impression that he'd learn plenty from his encouraging debut at York 16 days ago. Stall 8 isn't ideal, but he's a big player nonetheless.
9
(9) (5/1 -25%) Revisit
5
5/1(-25%)
(9) Revisit 5/1, Foaled March 13. Invincible Spirit filly. Dam, useful French 7f winner, closely related to high-class 1m-1¼m winner Capponi, runner-up in Dubai World Cup.
10
(10) (6.5/1 -30%) Zephina
6.5
6.5/1(-30%)
(10) Zephina 6.5/1, Fair maiden who has proved quite consistent to date but he's quite well established already, and he looks vulnerable.
5
(5) (9/1 +44%) I Still Have Faith
9
9/1(+44%)
(5) I Still Have Faith 9/1, Expert Eye colt who showed a bit when sixth under a considerate ride at Leicester in April. Should improve from that now upped in trip, so not completely discounted.
1
(1) (14/1 -27%) Craven
14
14/1(-27%)
(1) Craven 14/1, Foaled March 4. 27,000 gns yearling, Havana Gold colt. Half-brother to 1¼m winner Freshwater Cliffs. Bred for further, but still worthy of a market check.
3
(3) (14/1 -27%) Frank Ross Is Out
14
14/1(-27%)
(3) Frank Ross Is Out 14/1, Foaled January 29. Pastoral Pursuits colt. Half-brother to 2-y-o 5f winner Big Ace and ungenuine 1m-1¼m winner Little Ted. Dam, maiden (stayed 1m), half-sister to useful 5f-7f winner Inhalation.
8
(8) (66/1 -100%) Pink Stripes
66
66/1(-100%)
(8) Pink Stripes 66/1, Foaled February 12. Heeraat filly. Dam lightly-raced half-sister to useful US winner up to 8.5f (including minor stakes at 2 yrs) Carving. Doesn't make much appeal on paper.
LTO Selection:
16:20 Chester Maiden (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
(1) Broadspear 2.25/1, Shaped well when runner-up in a Thirsk novice on reappearance 49 days ago, never nearer having conceded first run. Upped in trip for this handicap debut and is in top hands, so he remains with potential.
2
(2) (2.5/1 +38%) Roudemental
2.5
2.5/1(+38%)
(2) Roudemental 2.5/1, Off 6 months and gelded ahead of making winning debut for yard (formerly with Tom Dascombe) in 1m handicap at Redcar in April. Confirmed that improvement when third at Doncaster 2 weeks ago and likely to be thereabouts again if seeing out this longer trip.
5
(5) (4/1 +33%) Wootton'Sun
4
4/1(+33%)
(5) Wootton'Sun 4/1, Left 2yo exploits behind when scoring in a handicap at Doncaster on return, all out having still seemed green under pressure. Not in the same form taking on significantly better company at Newbury but it's far too soon to be writing him off.
3
(3) (5.5/1 -65%) Kaatibb
5.5
5.5/1(-65%)
(3) Kaatibb 5.5/1, Has already hinted at a bit of temperament but showed improved form upped in trip on handicap debut when second at Lingfield (10f, AW) 18 days ago, conceding first run. Hit with 4 lb rise but may do better still.
6
(6) (18/1 -50%) Killearn
18
18/1(-50%)
(6) Killearn 18/1, Fair maiden who failed to improve upped in trip on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 60 days ago. Others more persuasive.
4
(4) (22/1 -57%) Sharp Combo
22
22/1(-57%)
(4) Sharp Combo 22/1, Wolverhampton maiden winner (7f) who ran best race when edged out only in the dying strides in a Lingfield nursery (1m, AW) on final outing in October. Longer trip likely to suit on pedigree and in the mix.
7
(7) (25/1 -25%) Brazilian Beach
25
25/1(-25%)
(7) Brazilian Beach 25/1, Fair maiden who has run respectably both starts for new yard this term but is starting to look exposed. Longer trip needs to bring about improvement on handicap debut.
LTO Selection:
16:55 Chester Handicap (Class 4) 10f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(7) Teumessias Fox 0.91/1, Winner at Newcastle in March and posted excellent second of 6 on his handicap debut at Salisbury (9.9f, good) 16 days ago. Weighted to go close off an unchanged mark and this step up in trip is also a plus.
1
(1) (6/1 -20%) Restorer
6
6/1(-20%)
(1) Restorer 6/1, Course winner. 16/1, good third of 7 in handicap at this course (10.3f, good) 22 days ago. Fifteen runs since last win in 2020, however.
6
(6) (12/1 -85%) Natchez Trace
12
12/1(-85%)
(6) Natchez Trace 12/1, Arrives in good nick, fourth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 13/2) 9 days ago, nearest finish. Up in trip and can't be dismissed.
3
(3) (16/1 -78%) Daheer
16
16/1(-78%)
(3) Daheer 16/1, Scored at Wolverhampton in April before good third of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 9 days ago. Shortlisted now tackling this longer distance.
5
(5) (28/1 -180%) Lunar Jet
28
28/1(-180%)
(5) Lunar Jet 28/1, Wwent backwards from reappearance when only ninth of 13 in handicap here (10.3f) 23 days ago. Needs to get back on track.
2
(2) (33/1 -83%) Trinity Girl
33
33/1(-83%)
(2) Trinity Girl 33/1, Bagged her second win of 2022 at Chelmsford City in February. 6/1, only seventh of 8 in handicap there 51 days ago though, so she needs to bounce back.
LTO Selection:

About U.K Horse Racing
Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.
There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.
The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.
Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.
In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.
Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
