UK Horse Racing Tips: Chester

TOWN QUEEN has filled second place on both of her previous starts, including a neck defeat at Thirsk earlier in the month, and Karl Burke's filly could go one better on this occasion. Lucky Luna showed promise when fourth on debut at Salisbury a week ago and she might prove to be the main threat to the selection, ahead of Night Shining and Imelda.
Prediction : 1st Town Queen 2nd Lucky Luna 3rd Night Shining

PURE GRIT put in a promising display when second on his racecourse bow at Newbury a couple of weeks ago and Andrew Balding's colt could be hard to stop with the benefit of that experience. That said, This Moment has a very similar profile and should not be discounted following his Hamilton second. Caturra Lights was third in a maiden here last time and is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Pure Grit 2nd This Moment 3rd Caturra Lights

FURTURRA just gets the vote in a wide-open event following his second in a Musselburgh maiden over 5f nine days ago. That form gives him the edge over Undercover Affair, who also found one too good on his most recent outing at Wolverhampton. Any market support for Stellar Quest on his racecourse bow would have to be noted, while similar comments apply to Shaniko and Delete Delete.
Prediction : 1st Furturra 2nd Undercover Affair 3rd Stellar Quest

It's hard to ignore the claims of BELIEVITANDUCAN, who made a winning return to the Flat at Ascot earlier in the month and is just 4lb higher. Billy Loughnane takes over in the saddle now, and the son of Make Believe could prove a tough nut to crack. Venezuelan is sent over two miles for the first time and he warrants a market check ahead of his stable debut/seasonal reappearance. Of the remainder, Kuredu King makes the most appeal.
Prediction : 1st Believitanducan 2nd Venezuelan 3rd Kuredu King

Elements Of Fire came up short when bidding for a four-timer over 6f at Ascot, but returning to further looks the right move. Even so, SUPIDO might be the way to go. Ian Williams' charge won over the extended 7f here recently and the handicapper might have been kind to only put him up 4lb. Dual course winner Miami Matrix is another to keep an eye on.
Prediction : 1st Supido 2nd Elements Of Fire 3rd Miami Matrix

ZIGHY completed a double over today's trip on the all-weather before failing to see out the 7f at Yarmouth last month, and George Boughey's filly can be given another chance with the likelihood of more to come from her back sprinting. Champonie lost her unbeaten record over the minimum trip here last time, but she can't be written off just yet, while the recent C&D winner Cherry Baker has had no luck with the draw and will need things to go her way.
Prediction : 1st Zighy 2nd Champonie 3rd Cherry Baker

MAYAADA scored over 7f last term and took a further step forward when upped to 1m2f at Salisbury a week ago. Ollie Sangster's filly returned the ready winner despite having to be switched for a clear run, and she should remain competitive from 4lb higher. Folk Pageant narrowly prevailed at Newmarket last time and she's another with scope for improvement, while Home Hero and Blue Noon are most appealing of those making their handicap debuts.
Prediction : 1st Mayaada 2nd Folk Pageant 3rd Home Hero
