UK Horse Racing Tips: Chester

ALI SHUFFLE is two from two after carrying a penalty to score by just under a length from subsequent winner Argentine Tango at Beverley and she may have lots more to offer from the plum draw in stall one. Viamarie made a good impression when a two-length victor as an odds-on favourite on her introduction at Kempton and has to be taken seriously, while impressive Southwell scorer Social Exclusion is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Ali Shuffle 2nd Viamarie 3rd Argentine Tango

Blinky bids to stay unbeaten since switching to the Antony Brittain yard, but he will need to transfer his recent form to turf so REDORANGE gets the nod. Clive Cox's three-year-old showed plenty of speed when attempting to make all at Sandown, only to fade into third in the closing stages. With a similar effort and with that return under his belt, he will prove tough to beat. Mission Command isn't out of it either.
Prediction : 1st Redorange 2nd Blinky 3rd Mission Command

Minnie Hauk, who cost 1,850,000 euros as a yearling, shed her maiden tag at the second time of asking at Leopardstown in October and Aidan O'Brien certainly knows the right type for this, so she has to be respected. However, THAT'S AMORE is preferred because she made a deep impression when scoring on debut at Newbury and should have any amount of improvement to come. Secret Of Love finished second in Listed company when last seen and is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Thats Amore 2nd Minnie Hauk 3rd Secret Of Love

Lambourn could launch a serious challenge on the back of finishing runner-up in the Ballysax at Leopardstown. He's preferred to stablemate Thrice, but the vote goes to SQUARE D'ALBONI. Ralph Beckett's inmate showed enough speed to win over 7f at Epsom last August, before ending the season with an impressive Listed victory over 1m1f on testing going at Chantilly, and he will improve further for this extra distance. Novice winners Convergent and Pinhole are others to note.
Prediction : 1st Square Dalboni 2nd Lambourn 3rd Convergent

BOB MALI made a promising start for his new trainer when runner-up at Newmarket. He had a subsequent winner back in third, so that form look solid, and William Buick's presence in the saddle is another positive. Diligently ended last season by landing a valuable sales race at York and he can feature back in handicap company, while Cyclonite finished a respectable third at the All-Weather Championships at Newcastle and is not out of it either.
Prediction : 1st Bob Mali 2nd Diligently 3rd Cyclonite

SEA SUITE was only beaten four lengths into fourth on his racecourse debut at Kempton last month and that form has worked out well. Stepping up in trip along with a switch to turf is likely to suit the son of Sea The Stars so, if handling the track, he could go close. Marnier made a pleasing introduction when finishing third at Newbury and he merits respect. Daiquiri Bay is just one more to consider.
Prediction : 1st Sea Suite 2nd Marnier 3rd Daiquiri Bay

A competitive event in which only a tentative vote can go to SPIRIT GENIE, whose latest Musselburgh performance was more encouraging than his Doncaster reappearance. The five-year-old doesn't have much leeway from his current rating, but he's back on his last winning mark and given that he's yet to run a poor race on the Roodee and is a C&D winner, he might be worth chancing. Catterick scorer Monsieur Fudge remains of interest back in a handicap. Billyb should appreciate a return to turf.
Prediction : 1st Spirit Genie 2nd Monsieur Fudge 3rd Billyb
