1.30 Chester Revich  5/1 Next Best

Boardman looks to have been primed for this and has his chance but it`s another previous course and distance winner in the shape of Revich I want to be with. The Richard Spencer runner was a good third in a stronger handicap than this at Newbury last time and this sharper test on this soft surface will play more to his strengths. Stall 6 should be fine if they decide to go forward once again.

Offering a range of extra places  including 1-2-3-4 on the 1.30 Chester with best odds guaranteed on a daily bases Quinnbet are the best bet for racing punters.

2.05 Chester Baryshnikov NAP 9/2

3 from 4 over this course and distance and looks to have a really strong chance of adding to that tally in this handicap. Soft ground suits, looks to be running into form. Back down to a winning mark and Billy Loughnane takes off a extra 3lb just to make sure.

We recommend placing the nap selection with Bet Zone who currently have one of the best welcome offers around for horse racing punters

2.40 Chester Point Lonsdale 6/5

Top class juvenile for the Aiden O`Brien team but was only seen when disappointing 2000 Guineas at Newmarket on his sole start last year. Bounced back with a win on return at the Curragh last time and it`s interesting connections have kept this son of Australia in training giving the impression they expect a strong campaign.

3.15 Chester Metier 7/1 – Zofee 8/1

As usual a fiercely competitive renewal of the Chester Cup in which I think given the hard luck stories which can occur it can make sense to dutch a couple of fancies. The Harry Fry trained Metier probably does not have to many secrets from the handicapper now but if this was to turn into a real slog then he could be the one and put in another solid effort last time Musselburgh. Zofee has never won fresh but has run some good races in defeat and no doubt will have been targeted for this by local connections. Stall 3 means he won’t need to work hard early to get a good position, handles soft ground, hits the profile of past winners and his fourth in the Cesarewitch gives him big claims.

Bet Goodwin offer some of  the best horse racing concessions each and every day including Best Odds Guranteed and money back promotions.

3.45 Chester Banderas Evens

Ryan Moore has a 50% strike rate when riding for Michael Bell in the last year and this looks a good opportunity for Banderas to break his maiden. He handles soft ground well and either of his efforts this year should be good enough

4.20 Chester Aqwaam 13/2

Put in a good effort just 6 days ago to finish 2nd at Doncaster. One of only a few in the line-up who is proven under conditions also. Ian Williams loves a Chester winner and the cheekpieces go on for the first time. Whirlwind has left the Richard Hannon yard after 4 starts and I`m sure it will only be a matter of time before he finds the winners enclosure for his new yard.

4.55 Chester Christopher Wood 18/1 Each Way

The progressive Novel Legend has obvious claims however is short enough. Venetia Williams has won the last 2 renewals of this race including with Bellatrixsa and although he has to be respected, he does not seem in the best of form currently. Stablemate Christopher Wood is currently a much bigger price which draw a side is surprising given he arrives here in good form looks on a nice mark and is proven under conditions.

Offering a range of extra places  including 1-2-3-4 on the 4.55 Chester with best odds guaranteed on a daily bases Unibet are the best bet for racing punters.
