Good to Soft this morning at Chester and more rain forecast.Probably looking at Slow.
Good card as you would expect but very difficult if your punting.
Race 1
Marcret is on a good mark considering he's won around here last season off a 5lb lower mark and he likes wet ground.He's since joined the excellent David O'Meara and his recent run at Ripon was good in a decent race.He's usually a front runner but if they try to lead here I think he'll be pratted out wide as he was when trying to follow up around here last season.Whether he'll be as effective ridden a bit quieter remains to be seen. That's Plenty is progressive and won well at Musselburgh -he likes it wet too.Sennockin Star is always a factor and Gabriel The Great may get the race run to suit.Pass
Race 2
Very good race.I like Ektihaam but he likes to dictate and front running tactics worked so well for Noble Mission last time that they may be determined to force the issue again.Telescope will be fitter and is still probably unexposed.Danadana and Gabriels Kaka are hard to emphatically dismiss so it's a no play race for me
Race 3
Derby trial and form lines from all over and very hard to line up with any accuracy.The O'Brien pair Carlo Bugatti and Orchestra head the market but if either were considered outstanding by the stable they would surely be at much shorter odds.Watch and learn
Race 4
Tricky race-Our Gabrial may still have more to offer but I'm not betting here
The other races are very hard to evaluate.Looks a tough day
