1st (8) Outrun The Storm (5/2 +58%)
Outrun The Storm

2.5
5/2(+58%)
(8) Outrun The Storm 5/2, Not at his best towards the end of last season, but proved determined back from 6 months off when landing a Newcastle handicap (7.1f) in April. Far from disgraced either outing since and danger to all if getting his own way in front from plum draw.
Unable to dominate when a solid Newmarket fifth latest; player from the inside stall.

2nd (4) On A Session (9/2 -29%)
On A Session

4.5
9/2(-29%)
(4) On A Session 9/2, Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at Musselburgh (7.1f, good, 6/1) 13 days ago, likely to have been better served by a stronger gallop. Handicapper is steadily easing his grip and not discounted despite a wide draw.
Solid fifth at Musselburgh 13 days ago; not ruled out from easing mark despite high draw.

3rd (1) Red Mirage (10/3 -203%)
Red Mirage

3.333333
10/3(-203%)
(1) Red Mirage 10/3, Course winner who enhanced his good record fresh (also had wind op) when successful at Catterick (7f, soft) in April. Hasn't quite scaled same heights in 2 starts since but Patrick Mullins a very eye-catching booking and he's considered from handy draw.
Won at Catterick but below par both runs since; no surprise to see him bounce back here.

4th (6) Spioradalta (11/2 +27%)
Spioradalta

5.5
11/2(+27%)
(6) Spioradalta 11/2, Well suited by the strong gallop and justified good support when successful over 7.6f here last summer. Shaped well on 2 of first 3 starts this campaign and any easing of the ground will play firmly to his strengths with cheekpieces refitted.
Course winner but only Nottingham fifth latest; sort to bounce back with cheekpieces on.

5th (2) Maxi Boy (20/1 -25%)
Maxi Boy

20/1(-25%)
(2) Maxi Boy 20/1, Winless since debut success for Michael Bell back in 2019 and largely disappointed for that yard last season. Needs to hit the ground running back from 8 months off/starting out for new stable.
Ended 2023 out of sorts for Michael Bell; needs yard switch to spark a resurgence.
9
6th (9) El Hibri (28/1 -100%)
El Hibri

28
28/1(-100%)
(9) El Hibri 28/1, Tasted success 3 times on AW this year, the latest at Chelmsford (6f) in May. Run best excused when last of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, good, 10/1) 13 days ago, short of room soon after start, but draw could have been much kinder here.
Suffered poor run when last at Lingfield 13 days ago; sort to bounce back but drawn wide.

King Of The Dance

20/1(+20%)
(10) King Of The Dance 20/1, 1m winner on all-weather for Eve Johnson Houghton last summer but yet to match that level in trio of starts for present yard, below form sixth of 13 in handicap (28/1) at Salisbury (7f, heavy) 40 days ago. Others preferred.
Yet to hit top form for his current yard, sixth at Salisbury 40 days ago; more required.

12/1(-20%)
(5) Soar Above 12/1, Nineteen runs since last win in 2022. Eighth of 10 in handicap (50/1) at Kempton (7f) 23 days ago. Refitting of cheekpieces may help back on turf and worth noting if the market speaks in his favour from a handy draw in stall 2.
Winless since the spring of 2022; cheekpieces are refitted with plenty to find.

13:40 Chester Handicap (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

RED MIRAGE has failed to fire on his two starts since winning over 7f at Catterick in April, but the booking of Patrick Mullins catches the eye and he can be given another chance in a race of this nature. Outrun The Storm is another with strong form claims, while On A Session edges out Spioradalta and Maxi Boy to be best of the rest.

Having enhanced his excellent record when fresh at Catterick in April, RED MIRAGE hasn't quite scaled the same heights in 2 subsequent outings but he remains on a workable mark on the pick of his form and with Patrick Mullins a very eye-catching booking, he looks a big player from a handy draw. Outrun The Storm, Spioradalta in refitted cheekpieces and On A Session head up the dangers.

Richard Fahey's in-form front-runner OUTRUN THE STORM is taken to resume winning ways from his ideal draw. Red Mirage is next best.

Old Chums

5.5
11/2(+31%)
(5) Old Chums 11/2, Progressive in handicaps on AW, winning twice and ran well having set a strong gallop when third over C&D in May. Raced closer to the pace than ideal when eleventh of 19 in handicap (12/1) at York (7f, good) 20 days ago but draw in 11 not ideal here.
Close third over C&D on his penultimate run and he looks interesting back in trip.

2nd (8) Infinity Blue (28/1 -75%)
Infinity Blue

28
28/1(-75%)
(8) Infinity Blue 28/1, First run since leaving Andrew Balding/off 7 months when seventh of 9 in handicap (18/1) at Newcastle (6f) 33 days ago, racing off the pace and never involved. This should reveal more but another with a less-than-ideal draw to work from. Had wind op.
Well held on stable debut at Newcastle and has tough draw back at this track; had wind op.
6
3rd (6) Onigiri (16/1 -167%)
Onigiri

16
16/1(-167%)
(6) Onigiri 16/1, Struggled to make an impact at Meydan earlier this year but better effort returned to these shores when good third of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 17 days ago. Each-way claims again here from 1 lb lower mark.
Good third at Lingfield last time and has claims if she can back that up.
3
4th (3) Call Glory (12/1 -20%)
Call Glory

12
12/1(-20%)
(3) Call Glory 12/1, Dual winner as a juvenile who ran best race since the turn of the year when fifth of 11 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, firm, 20/1) 27 days ago. Has edged down 1 lb below last winning mark if he can build on that now.
Both wins have come at 5f and he's faded in both runs this season; others preferred.
1
5th (1) Biographer (350/1 -2817%)
Biographer

350
350/1(-2817%)
(1) Biographer 350/1, Winner at Lingfield in January. Changed hands for 17,000 gns/gelded, not matched that level in pair of turf handicaps in recent weeks but visor worn for earlier success back on here and he's not one to write off.
Still unexposed on turf and visor now returns but he needs a major revival.
9
6th (9) Master Franca (400/1 -2757%)
Master Franca

400
400/1(-2757%)
(9) Master Franca 400/1, Ran out a winner at 40/1 at Lingfield (7f) back in the autumn but not yet built on a creditable reappearance run at Wolverhampton in March in pair of starts on AW/turf so blinkers need to have a positive effect. Widest draw to overcome.
Well held in last two runs and needs new headgear to make a difference back at this trip.
10
7th (10) Macanudo (250/1 -5456%)
Macanudo

250
250/1(-5456%)
(10) Macanudo 250/1, Successful on final start for Olly Murphy at Chelmsford (5f) in February. Mixed bag in handful of starts for new stable have followed, fifth of 6 in handicap at Leicester (6f, good to soft, 11/2) 18 days ago. Still, better showing not ruled out from plum draw.
Needs to step up but this is a drop back in grade and he's well handicapped on best form.
12
8th (12) Last Applause (350/1 -3400%)
Last Applause

350
350/1(-3400%)
(12) Last Applause 350/1, Catterick 7f novice winner in October who has stepped forward with each outing this term, good second behind a subsequent winner in a C&D handicap 3 weeks ago. 1 lb lower now but a return to 7f may suit ideally.
Catterick winner who was respectable second over C&D (good to soft) last time; in the mix.
2
9th (2) Angel's Call (400/1 -5614%)
Angel's Call

400
400/1(-5614%)
(2) Angel's Call 400/1, Took his form up a notch when opening his account at Wolverhampton (5.1f) in April and ran to a similar level despite getting warm beforehand when fifth of 12 in handicap at Ascot (6f, good) 35 days ago, soon off the bridle before finishing well. Well drawn and he remains lightly raced.
Fair fifth of 12 on handicap/turf debut at Ascot and has claims if he can build on that.
4
10th (4) Quiet Resolve (28/1 -522%)
Quiet Resolve

28
28/1(-522%)
(4) Quiet Resolve 28/1, Continued theme of race-by-race progress when opening his account in a Newcastle maiden (7f) in February. Not disgraced in pair of starts on turf since, eighth of 19 in handicap at York (7f, good, 11/2) 20 days ago. Respected returned to sprinting with cheekpieces enlisted.
Never involved at York last time and not sure this drop back to 6f will suit; headgear on.
11
11th (11) Judge Frank (250/1 -1150%)
Judge Frank

250
250/1(-1150%)
(11) Judge Frank 250/1, Fair form when second in Newbury novice (6.5f) on debut last summer but well below that level all 4 starts subsequently for Heather Main. Joined new yard for 11,000 gns in March and the betting may prove useful on handicap debut.
Handicap newcomer but he's been regressive so far and has plenty to prove for new yard.
7
12th (7) Cool Run (200/1 -3233%)
Cool Run

200
200/1(-3233%)
(7) Cool Run 200/1, Fair maiden for Ed Bethell who shaped as if better for the run following 6 months off/wind op when fifth of 6 in handicap at Newcastle (5f, 18/1) 42 days ago and better showing expected returned to 6f with Franny Norton booked.
Has claims on best 2yo form but she made a low-key start for new yard last month.

14:15 Chester Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

ANGEL'S CALL was far from disgraced when filling fifth place in a competitive event at Ascot on his handicap debut last month, and that form gives him a big chance here off a 1lb lower mark. Onigiri showed more on her return to the UK at Lingfield last time and should not be underestimated, while Macanudo and Cool Run also merit places on the shortlist.

QUIET RESOLVE didn't quite meet up to expectations at York on his latest outing 3 weeks ago but he remains sufficiently lightly raced to think he could yet do better and, returned to sprinting/equipped with first-time cheekpieces, he earns the vote to make full use of his handy draw and come out on top. Macanudo and Onigiri are others to consider, whilst Old Chums, despite a wide draw, would be a danger to all if getting loose on the front end.

It might be worth siding with MACANUDO, who takes a big drop back in grade and is well handicapped if he can rediscover his spark.

Manila Thriller

6.5
13/2(+46%)
(9) Manila Thriller 13/2, Foaled April 22. Rumble Inthejungle filly. Very green but passed a few late on without threatening when seventh of 11 in minor event (9/1) at Windsor (6f, good to firm) on debut 20 days ago. This should reveal more.
Can benefit from her debut experience but needs to step up on it; up in trip..

(10) Oasis Sunrise 15/2, €20,000 yearling, Bated Breath filly. 9/1, showed a bit when fourth of 11 in maiden at Chelmsford City (6f) on debut 8 days ago. Open to improvement and worth considering eased in grade.
Looked like she needed further on debut; gets that this time and could take a closer hand..

Dukes Of Haather

1.25
5/4(+50%)
(3) Dukes Of Haather 5/4, Displayed promise first 2 starts and improved as expected in line with step up in trip when third of 12 in minor event at Newmarket (6f, good, 16/1) 28 days ago, headed under 2f out and keeping on. Even longer trip here promises to suit on that evidence and he's one to consider from handy draw.
Improved when third in a Newmarket novice event latest; big player on that evidence..

4th (12) Whiskey Glasses (8/1 -14%)
Whiskey Glasses

8
8/1(-14%)
(12) Whiskey Glasses 8/1, Twice-raced maiden. 40/1, eighth of 10 in Woodcote Stakes at Epsom (6f, soft) 14 days ago, left behind over 1f out. Debut effort at Kempton certainly wasn't devoid of promise and return to much calmer waters a plus now.
Step up in trip positive and she should be capable of making an impact at this level..

(4) Camden Flyer 25/1, Invincible Spirit filly. 12/1, last of 10 in maiden at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm) on debut 11 days ago, weakening under 2f out. Up in trip.
Beaten over 12l on debut; will need a significant step up on that even at this level..

6th (1) Almanjoor (18/1 -227%)
Almanjoor

18
18/1(-227%)
(1) Almanjoor 18/1, Sands Of Mali colt. Shaped better than first time up when fourth at Doncaster (5f) in May but made hard work of things when third of 4 in minor event at Carlisle (5.8f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Steps up further in trip now.
Goes up again in trip and down in grade and no surprise if he is heavily involved..

12-1 on recent debut in a Musselburgh seller, when always behind; much more needed..

Placed in 5f/6f maidens but lesser efforts either side, including in a seller latest..

14:50 Chester Seller (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

DUKES OF HAATHER has improved with every start to date and his latest third at Newmarket last month suggests that he could be very hard to beat at this level. Oasis Sunrise showed ability when fourth on her racecourse bow at Chelmsford recently and she could prove to be the main threat. That said, Almanjoor, Whiskey Glasses and Camden Flyer should not be discounted.

DUKES OF HAATHER improved as expected in line with the step up in trip when third at Newmarket (6f) and, with this even longer trip promising to be within range on that evidence, he can get off the mark at the fourth attempt. Oasis Sunrise and Whiskey Glasses are others to consider, with Almanjoor not one to be giving up on just yet.

Preference is for the proven form of DUKES OF HAATHER, who can take advantage of a drop in class.

Well held in two handicaps this season and is far from certain to stay 1m2f on pedigree.

Looks well worth a go at this new trip but he needs to resume his progress.

15:25 Chester Handicap (Class 4) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

REBAATT took an expected step forward for his first foray into handicap company, being beaten just half a length into second at Newmarket. The winner has gone in again since, so a 2lb rise may underestimate the merit of William Haggas' three-year-old's performance. Amancio has been so reliable this year and should run another honest race, although Hutchence might be a bigger threat, with an opening mark of 76 not unduly harsh for the expensive son of Frankel.

There has to be a good chance that AMANCIO has been let in lightly here from an unchanged mark having found only a big improver too strong at Haydock 3 weeks ago (pair a long way clear). The selection may have most to fear from Rebaatt and Hutchence, an improving pair representing leading stables.

This can go to the unexposed REBAATT (nap), who went close behind a subsequent winner on his handicap debut at Newmarket last month.

Not one to rely on but he arrives in a good vein of form; he's one for the shortlist.

16:00 Chester Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Vellner lost little in defeat on his runner-up effort behind a progressive rival at Hamilton last month and he must enter calculations off only 3lb higher in the ratings. However, this drop in trip by a furlong may leave the five-year-old vulnerable and DARBUCKS makes most appeal. Christopher Kellett's charge arrives on the back of two close-up seconds and he's fancied to take advantage of a plum draw. Further progress cannot be ruled out from last-time-out winner Indie Skies, either.

DARBUCKS really does deserve to snap his losing sequence, doing little wrong again when second at Carlisle a fortnight ago, and stall 1 at this track could be just the tonic. Indie Skies may have more to offer for Mick Appleby so he's a threat, along with Wake Up Harry.

Mick Appleby's new recruit INDIE SKIES overcame a poor draw to make a winning debut at Kempton (form been franked) and can follow up.

16:35 Chester Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Although he's been handed the widest draw of all, MR SQUIRES could hardly have been more impressive when winning over 7f at Wolverhampton last time and a 5lb penalty shouldn't stop him if turning up here in similar form. Star Shield was a close second at Ripon last week and he should go close again from stall two, while Daisy Roots has been running consistently well in defeat of late and she looks to have solid place claims.

DAISY ROOTS has been knocking very loudly on the door of late, runner-up on her last 3 outings and that elusive third win may well be forthcoming. Mr Squires and Star Shield also arrive in excellent order and head the opposition.

Lots with chances but Adam West's likeable filly DAISY ROOTS is taken to end a run of second placings and gain a deserved success here.

17:10 Chester Handicap (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

A competitive race in which plenty have chances, so only a tentative vote can go to TREASURE TIME, who can progress now sent handicapping off a seemingly workable opening mark of 77. Mai Dubai shaped as if he may improve for his return at Newmarket last month and he could do better with that outing under his belt, while Operate is another runner who needs to bounce back from a disappointing effort last time but he looks capable of getting involved from stall one.

BULMER BANK ran well when third from off a strong pace at York 3 weeks ago and gets the vote from the same mark with a similar scenario likely to unfold here. Treasure Time is a likely improver now handicapping and is a danger, while Native King is also interesting now pitched into a handicap by his new local trainer.

Plenty have possibilities but the vote goes to BULMER BANK after an eyecatching run at York three weeks ago.

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.
