The ITV4 coverage gets underway at 13:30 at Chester. Ali Shuffle makes plenty of appeal for the Karl Burke team, with the stable particularly impressing with their two-year-old runners this season.
The filly has won impressively on her two career starts to this point, and won well from Argentine Tango over five furlongs at Beverley last time out. Yard and jockey are in excellent form, and more proven than most in this field.
It could be worth following man of the moment Sean Bowen in the 13:45 at Newton Abbot on Wednesday. The jockey is currently striking at 38%, and Yes Indeed looks to be steadily progressive now in the care of Martin Keighley.
The eight-year-old has won on his last two starts for the team, including over an extended two miles at Newton Abbot at the start of last month. He is still improving, and could be open to more progress now up in trip.
Des Donovan has been among the winners in recent weeks, and he could have a leading chance in the 14:05 at Chester. Silvestre De Sousa is booked to take the ride on Kinetic Force, who was impressive on his latest start when quickly getting the job done over five furlongs at Bath.
A return to a sounder surface brought out major improvement in the three-year-old, and he may be handicapped to go close once again on Wednesday.
Secret Of Love could be the standout selection in a competitive Cheshire Oaks field on Wednesday. The three-year-old for Andrew Balding has won once from three career starts, and was a staying on second on her reappearance when narrowly beaten by Smoken.
Newmarket may not bring out the best in this filly, meaning a return to a more traditional circuit could see her in a better light. It is also worth noting that she has a recent run under her belt, unlike many of her market rivals at the top of the betting.
The red-hot Ralph Beckett yard will be represented by Square D’Alboni in the Chester Vase Stakes on Wednesday. The three-year-old has won three from four career starts, with his only defeat coming over an inadequate seven furlongs on debut.
Since then, he has improved with every run, including when landing the listed Prix Isonomy at the end of last season. Bred to excel over this trip, and shouldn’t be that far away.
A wide draw may not be ideal, but The Flying Seagull is handicapped to run a big race for the in-form Hugo Palmer team on Wednesday. The three-year-old has a positive record at Chester, having won over course and distance in June last year when beating Blueandtangerine.
Has been campaigned on the all-weather for most of this season, but there was plenty to like about his recent effort when a head second to Vocal Legend at Lingfield. Is likely to be a big price, but an each-way player.
