| Race | Horse | Form | Odds | Rating | Weight | Age | Jockey | Trainer | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 14:10 Chester | 3rd (1) Amor Cordis |  | | | | 2 | Joanna Mason | Dr Richard Newland & Jamie Insole | £85,000 Havana Gold half-brother to four winners; however, allowed to go off at 66-1 at Windsor (6f, good to firm) and finished tenth of the 11 runners. |
| 14:10 Chester | (2) By The Glass | | | | | 2 | Sean D Bowen | David Loughnane | Never going the pace at Leicester (7f, good to soft) and was beaten about 18l; needs to leave that run a long way behind. |
| 14:10 Chester | (3) Matharu | | | | | 2 | Finley Marsh | Richard Hughes | 40,000euros breeze-up 2yo; beaten in the region of 12l in 7f events at Kempton and Ascot; perhaps one for nurseries after this. |
| 14:10 Chester | 1st (4) Seagolazo | | | | | 2 | Kevin Stott | Hugo Palmer | Made a nice debut and stepped up on that to finish much closer at Haydock (7f, good), finishing his race out well after being hampered by a loose horse; sets the standard. |
| 14:10 Chester | 4th (5) Sundown Kid | | | | | 2 | Jason Hart | John & Sean Quinn | Glimmers of promise in both his runs at about 7f but Topspeed/RPR figures leave him with lots to find. |
| 14:10 Chester | 2nd (6) Wiltshire Lad | | | | | 2 | Jason Watson | Sir Michael Stoute | 190,000gns yearling; could never land a blow after being slowly away at Doncaster (7f, good to firm; 9-1) but there were positives to take out of that and the third (4l ahead) impressed in winning at the Newmarket July festival; significant improvement looks on the cards. |
| 14:45 Chester | (1) Green Team | | | | | 5 | Franny Norton | Ian Williams | Has got himself well handicapped and he raced enthusiastically in the new visor when third over C&D two weeks ago; has a bit to find with Grey Fable and Hot Team, while there's no guarantee the headgear will inspire a second time. |
| 14:45 Chester | 2nd (2) Lincoln Rockstar | | | | | 4 | Marco Ghiani | Ivan Furtado | Made it 3-5 for this yard in a tongue-tie when responding well for pressure to be well on top late on at Leicester last week (1m4f, good to soft); she's 8lb higher for this and has been plying her trade in Class 6s, but the momentum is with her. |
| 14:45 Chester | 1st (3) Grey Fable | | | | | 4 | Sean D Bowen | Karl Thornton | 0-20 for former yard but second and first in two C&D handicaps for current one, two weeks ago readily repelling Hot Team and Green Team; led 1f out before collecting by 2l; 4lb rise is fair and Sean D Bowen rides again. |
| 14:45 Chester | (4) Ready To Shine | | | | | 5 | Tom Kiely-Marshall | Julie Camacho | Won off a 6lb higher mark over this far at Thirsk last summer (good to firm); muddling pace was no help when fourth of the five runners on return to Flat action at Haydock (1m3f, good; after a wind op) but she didn't run badly; hard to dismiss. |
| 14:45 Chester | (5) Lhebayeb | | | | | 6 | Finley Marsh | Richard Price | Three-time winner last year over slightly shorter trips for Victor Dartnall, for whom her final race was a placed effort over hurdles; however, finished last on stable debut only two weeks ago over 1m4f at Chepstow. |
| 14:45 Chester | (6) Naturalia | | | | | 3 | Shay Farmer | Donald Whillans | Started out as a sprinter; off the mark over 1m1f at Carlisle (soft) in May and has probably performed even better in defeat since, latterly when upped to 1m3f; wouldn't be a certain stayer over this far but they might not go much of a pace. |
| 14:45 Chester | 3rd (7) Hot Team | | | | | 8 | Jack Doughty | Patrick Morris | This year's wins have been at 1m3f and 1m1f but he stays this far; didn't get the breaks when second to Grey Fable here two weeks ago but last week's Haydock effort could have been better; may bounce back returned here. |
| 14:45 Chester | 4th (8) Infinite Honour | | | | | 3 | Ray Dawson | Susan Corbett | First run over 1m4f and on a sharp left-handed track when comfortably coming clear at Catterick (good to soft) latest, which followed two seconds; strong in the market last time and an 8lb rise is hard to moan about. |
| 15:20 Chester | 1st (1) Light Speed | | | | | 4 | Joanna Mason | Gemma Tutty | With Andrew Balding when winning three of his first four starts, including a 1m2f handicap on the AW off 4lb higher; neither run since moving yards was overly positive and he now has a lot to prove. |
| 15:20 Chester | 4th (2) Evocative Spark | | | | | 5 | Franny Norton | Darryll Holland | In-form 5yo who enhanced his solid record at this track when coming from off the pace over C&D 15 days ago, faring best of the rest behind one who dominated up front; drawn wider this time but has a good chance if getting the breaks. |
| 15:20 Chester | (3) Island Native | | | | | 4 | Jason Watson | Michael Appleby | Running well on turf until failing to overcome a wide draw at Chelmsford last time and this front-runner has again been unlucky in that respect; will do well to dominate as he likes from box 12. |
| 15:20 Chester | 3rd (4) Saturnalia | | | | | 4 | Finley Marsh | Richard Hughes | Both wins have been on the AW and he's yet to prove himself quite so effective on turf, for all that he wasn't far away over 7f at Salisbury latest; perhaps not the percentage call. |
| 15:20 Chester | (5) Dembe | | | | | 6 | Dale Swift | Simon Pearce | Split two subsequent winners at Kempton three runs back (1m AW) and not disgraced subsequently back there or at Ascot; losing run is mounting up but he has each-way claims. |
| 15:20 Chester | (6) Lahab | | | | | 4 | Jason Hart | Michael Wigham | Has shown he can be competitive off this sort of mark but has left Grant Tuer for 15,000gns after a couple of sevenths; sold on 10th July and it remains to be seen how he's settled in for his new yard, so he's perhaps best watched. |
| 15:20 Chester | (7) Oso Rapido | | | | | 7 | Ray Dawson | Roger Fell & Sean Murray | Has won at 7f but most wins have come over 6f and he hasn't really achieved all that much over either distance since last October's Catterick win. |
| 15:20 Chester | (8) Tobetso | | | | | 4 | Zak Wheatley | Declan Carroll | 7f/1m winner; back to form off last winning mark when third at Thirsk but then ran poorly at Ripon where he has won; unraced here and he's drawn wide, so others appeal more. |
| 15:20 Chester | (9) Vince Le Prince | | | | | 4 | Sean Kirrane | Tim Easterby | It was a Class 5 that he won at Leicester (7f, good) and he came up short in a Class 4 off this 2lb higher mark at Thirsk; perhaps vulnerable from his wide berth. |
| 15:20 Chester | (10) Wyvern | | | | | 5 | Harry Burns | Patrick Morris | Three-time winner stuck on a losing run and he finished last over C&D on stable debut; risky enough. |
| 15:20 Chester | (11) Saviour | | | | | 3 | Kevin Stott | Hugo Palmer | Only sixth in his two handicaps (in this headgear latterly) and failed to back up his 2yo novice form; much depends on what effect a gelding operation might have had and he needs checking in the betting. |
| 15:20 Chester | (12) Once Adaay | | | | | 4 | Sean D Bowen | Mrs Ilka Gansera-Leveque | Has won on only AW but did make the frame here not long ago, albeit in a lower grade; likely to need better this time and he's run moderately since. |
| 15:20 Chester | 2nd (13) Rainwater | | | | | 3 | Connor Murtagh | Richard Fahey | Handicap runs mirror his novice efforts in that he's performed okay with seriously threatening; only seventh at Leicester last time (7f, good; first-time cheekpieces) in the race won by Vince Le Prince. |
| 16:05 Chester | 3rd (1) Action Point | | | | | 3 | Joshua Bryan | Archie Watson | Listed winner at two and twice placed at that level subsequently; latest fifth in Germany was a good effort on RPRs and he's been gelded since; on a tough mark for belated handicap debut but he's earned it. |
| 16:05 Chester | 2nd (2) Matters Most | | | | | 3 | Hector Crouch | Ralph Beckett | Two wins as a juvenile; slow start did for him at Royal Ascot but competitive in his two runs either side of that (at 6f), pushing a subsequent improver close at Windsor and only wilting late on when the ground was soft at Pontefract; good chance, other than stall 9 not being ideal. |
| 16:05 Chester | (3) Warm Spell | | | | | 3 | Ray Dawson | Roger Varian | Beat last month's Britannia runner-up in a 7f novice at Newbury last summer and that suggests he's well handicapped; restless in stalls and slowly away on his handicap debut at Newmarket in May (6f); has been gelded and remains of strong interest. |
| 16:05 Chester | 1st (4) Garfield Shadow | | | | | 3 | Connor Murtagh | Richard Fahey | The form of his C&D win at the May meeting now reads really well given he was getting just 1lb off Al Shabab Storm who has since gone 211 and is BHA-rated 107 now; didn't appear to cope with the Dip too well at Newmarket next time and his York run was just too bad to be true; major player providing he breaks well from stall 1. |
| 16:05 Chester | (5) Irish Nectar | | | | | 3 | Franny Norton | Kevin Ryan | Ended 2yo campaign on a high with narrow 5f soft-ground wins at Nottingham (maiden) and York (handicap; 5lb lower); never involved on his return and again back at York in May, though he found a lot of bother that day. |
| 16:05 Chester | 4th (6) Eye Of Dubai | | | | | 3 | Jason Hart | John & Sean Quinn | The season began well and, following a second wind operation, he got firmly back on track when staying on late in the day from an unpromising position over C&D recently (Balon D'or runner-up); drawn wide on that occasion but not this time and he has raced prominently before; interesting. |
| 16:05 Chester | (7) Beyond Borders | | | | | 3 | Pierre-Louis Jamin | K R Burke | Progressive 2yo, winning four times over 6f; 4lb lower than when close up behind Garfield Shadow here in May but hasn't really kicked on from there and stall 10 might scupper him. |
| 16:05 Chester | (8) Media Shooter | | | | | 3 | Sean D Bowen | K R Burke | Looks a better horse on AW than turf, for all that he was fourth of 17 in an always-strong York sprint two starts back; Kempton last time was his least effective performance this year. |
| 16:05 Chester | (9) Balon d'Or | | | | | 3 | Jack Doughty | Hugo Palmer | 0-14 since his winning debut but off a reduced mark he beat all bar an unexposed Beckett horse over C&D two weeks ago; that was a Class 4 and this a Class 2, but with Jack Doughty taking away 5lb he can't be ruled out. |
| 16:05 Chester | (10) Knicks | | | | | 3 | Joanna Mason | Michael & David Easterby | Made all in a 5f handicap here at the May meeting but it was asking a bit much to repeat those tactics over this far on rain-softened ground two weeks ago; drawn wider this time and with the visor tried the last twice now left off; will do well to win. |
| 16:40 Chester | 2nd (1) Secret Mistral | | | | | 4 | Jack Doughty | Tony Carroll | Likes to force it and ran out a 2l winner at Haydock on reappearance (5f, good); another good run back there last week when faring best of the trailblazers; not particularly well drawn for her running style but by no means dismissed. |
| 16:40 Chester | (2) Habooba | | | | | 4 | Ray Dawson | T J Kent | Still early days on turf (this is only her third attempt) but she burned her rivals off mid-race at Kempton (6f) last time before holding on at the death; drop to 5f is no concern but stall 12 is. |
| 16:40 Chester | 1st (3) Count d'Orsay | | | | | 8 | Sean Kirrane | Tim Easterby | A few good runs to his name this year, including here three starts back, but he was soon struggling when a big outsider in big field at York (good to firm) on Friday; ground softer than good would be preferred for him. |
| 16:40 Chester | (4) Maharajas Express | | | | | 4 | Zak Wheatley | Patrick Morris | Consistent sprinter for Jack Jones and last couple of runs for that yard were respectable; recently changed hands for 16,000gns and has a part to play if holding his form. |
| 16:40 Chester | 3rd (5) Ecclesiastical | | | | | 7 | Jason Hart | Tristan Davidson | Won here last season during which his mark went through the roof after winning four times; dropping back to a better mark and his latest run here was encouraging after getting pestered up front. |
| 16:40 Chester | (6) Bang On The Bell | | | | | 5 | Harrison Shaw | J R Jenkins | Multiple winner, though seven of his nine wins have been on the AW and that's his scene; lower turf mark brings some optimism but stall 10 asks a big question of him. |
| 16:40 Chester | (7) Rogue Thunder | | | | | 4 | Harry Burns | Patrick Morris | Won on the AW over 7f for Tom Clover; hasn't beaten a rival in two runs for this yard, over 7f and the extended 5f here; wellbeing is an issue and so too his effectiveness at this distance. |
| 16:40 Chester | (8) Doctor Vuby | | | | | 3 | Joanna Mason | Michael & David Easterby | Best efforts have come on the AW and he hasn't offered a lot in two turf runs after wind surgery (hampered early at Epsom on former occasion); from a bad draw he's down the pecking order here. |
| 16:40 Chester | (9) High Velocity | | | | | 5 | Sean D Bowen | David Loughnane | Has come a long way down in the weights since last scoring at Southwell in August 2022; 0-5 for current yard and recent best efforts have also been on the AW; poor at Doncaster last time in cheekpieces and now tries blinkers; too much to prove. |
| 16:40 Chester | (10) Object | | | | | 5 | Jack Garritty | Tim Easterby | Best efforts this season have come on ground with give underfoot, winning at Catterick in April and fourth back there last time; needs ideal conditions to defy current mark. |
| 16:40 Chester | (11) Lotus Rose | | | | | 5 | Jason Watson | Roger Fell & Sean Murray | Expensive to follow this season but well handicapped and made the frame on her previous visit here; unlikely to be far away. |
| 16:40 Chester | (12) Red Walls | | | | | 6 | Franny Norton | Lisa Williamson | 9-66 on the AW, whereas he is 0-23 on grass after finishing fourth over 7f here two weeks ago; this is a better trip for him and he's quick enough to exploit his lower draw. |
| 17:20 Chester | (1) Hyperfocus | | | | | 10 | Sean Kirrane | Tim Easterby | In-form veteran who bids for a Chester hat-trick, having won 6f/5.5f events here the last twice; best on ground softer than good and certainly needs such conditions back at 5f; chance depends on what the weather does. |
| 17:20 Chester | (2) Arecibo | | | | | 9 | Franny Norton | Declan Carroll | Some respectable form this season for new yard and now drops in class off an attractive mark; the negatives are his long losing spell and unfavourable draw but the booking of Chester expert Franny Norton is a positive. |
| 17:20 Chester | (3) The Thames Boatman | | | | | 4 | Finley Marsh | Richard Hughes | Held on narrowly at Chelmsford (5f) three weeks ago, recording his fifth AW win; no certainty to follow up, being 0-8 on turf and back on career-high mark, but an advantageous draw gives him a fighting chance. |
| 17:20 Chester | (4) Dickieburd | | | | | 4 | Kevin Stott | Craig Lidster | Threatening to regain the winning thread, having finished second twice here (5f/5.5f) of late; hindered by a rather tardy start when beaten favourite in C&D event last time and is treated as if still in form; well drawn and warrants respect. |
| 17:20 Chester | (5) Almaty Star | | | | | 4 | Marco Ghiani | Robert Cowell | Ties in closely with The Thames Boatman on Chelmsford AW running three weeks ago but has to overcome a difficult draw in this field; latest effort took his turf record to 0-9; not the percentage call. |
| 17:20 Chester | (6) Due For Luck | | | | | 3 | Jason Hart | John & Sean Quinn | Regressed elsewhere the last twice but this return to Chester may well have a positive effect; has gone close off this mark in both starts over C&D; favourably drawn and looks interesting back here. |
| 17:20 Chester | 2nd (7) Accrual | | | | | 3 | Hector Crouch | Daniel & Claire Kubler | Improving 3yo who has raced only four times and could well have more to offer; good second in Yarmouth handicap most recently when bidding for a 5f hat-trick; Wolverhampton win suggests he'll be suited by Chester; one for the shortlist. |
| 17:20 Chester | (8) Grace Angel | | | | | 4 | Jason Watson | Darryll Holland | Best effort this term when close second at Windsor (5f) in May; has become inconsistent but a physical tweak (had wind surgery since last run) may help; nicely weighted off 7lb below last winning mark. |
| 17:20 Chester | (9) G'Day Mate | | | | | 3 | Alistair Rawlinson | Michael Appleby | 5f winner in Ireland; 0-7 for new stable and form has dipped since running well on AW in February/March; chance largely depends on how well he responds to first-time hood and drop in grade. |
| 17:20 Chester | 3rd (10) Nazron | | | | | 3 | Ray Dawson | Roger Varian | Solid performer whose form figures read 3232122, runner-up in small field at Lingfield (5f) most recently; still on the same mark but has to overcome the worst of the draw in a deeper race; will do well to go one better. |
| 17:20 Chester | 1st (11) Paws For Thought | | | | | 6 | Charlie Maggs | Donald McCain | Has gained all wins over 6f/7f, including three times at Chester; short of pace over C&D three starts ago; has the plum draw but looks far from solid on 2024 form and the return to 5f presents a question mark. |
| 17:20 Chester | (12) King Of Tonga | | | | | 8 | Zak Wheatley | Declan Carroll | Overcame a wide trip from stall 9 in C&D contest two weeks ago, taking Chester record to 3-11; remains to be seen whether he can repeat the feat from same draw but it's hard to rule him out; still favourably treated on peak form. |
| 17:50 Chester | 5th (1) Theoryofeverything | | | | | 4 | Jason Watson | David O'Meara | 0-8 since a winning debut for the Gosdens; hasn't built on a good debut for this yard when fourth in a blanket finish at Newmarket in April (1m, good) but wind surgery could do something for him and he does stay this far. |
| 17:50 Chester | (2) Dream Harder | | | | | 5 | Franny Norton | Ian Williams | Gave it a good go in the new cheekpieces when second to Grey Cuban here two weeks ago but he was out of the money at Yarmouth on Thursday (1m3f; never threatened); no headgear this time. |
| 17:50 Chester | 3rd (3) Sniper's Eye | | | | | 4 | Alistair Rawlinson | David Simcock | Won a Southwell novice (1m) last September and that was it for the season; hasn't threatened in either handicap this year, though wasn't beaten far at Newmarket last time (1m2f) when held up in a slowly run affair; has a handicap in him. |
| 17:50 Chester | 1st (4) Grey Cuban | | | | | 3 | Jason Hart | Hugo Palmer | AW winner; predictably struggled at Royal Ascot two runs back but the hood went on over C&D two weeks ago (good to soft) and he came home best to deny Dream Harder; if the headgear works again then the 3lb rise shouldn't be the end of the world. |
| 17:50 Chester | 2nd (5) More Thunder | | | | | 3 | Kevin Stott | Sir Michael Stoute | Nottingham novice winner (1m2f, good) who only went down by a length to a Gosden newcomer when penalised at Newmarket (good); probably needs more again to defy this mark but that's quite feasible. |
| 17:50 Chester | 6th (6) Mysteryofthesands | | | | | 3 | Joanna Mason | Tim Easterby | Off the mark when narrowly denying the well-backed favourite at Hamilton (extended 1m; good) but that was a Class 5 and he was only sixth in a Class 4 back there; this Class 3 company should demand even more and he's off an untouched mark. |
| 17:50 Chester | 4th (7) Double Jump | | | | | 3 | Jack Doughty | Clive Cox | Nursery winner over 7f on soft; second and third in his two handicaps since sent beyond a mile and the winners of both those races were in form; has the benefit of Jack Doughty's claim and cheekpieces are added; player. |
