Can give another good account. Maiden; respectable second at Haydock last week; possibilities off same mark.
3	3 3rd (3) (5/1 -67%) The Crafty Mole		5 5/1(-67%)																															(3) The Crafty Mole 5/1, In first-time visor, gained a fifth success of the season when awarded race in 7-runner handicap at Thirsk (14f, good to firm, 9/4) 2 weeks ago, promoted having suffered interference. Could be set to add to his tally. Promoted to first at Thirsk last time, following a stewards' inquiry; now 5-5 over 1m6f.
4	4 4th (4) (5/2 +82%) Terrorise		2.5 5/2(+82%)																															(4) Terrorise 5/2, Off the mark on handicap debut at Doncaster in May. Faced a stiff task when tenth of 16 in the Melrose at York (13.8f, good to firm, 50/1) 20 days ago, so he could fare better back down in grade. Drops back in class but has failed to build on his spring win at Doncaster.
5th	5 5th (5) (10/1 +38%) Peace Walk		10 10/1(+38%)																															(5) Peace Walk 10/1, Has yet to finish better than mid-division in handicaps this year, 9¾ lengths sixth of 7 to The Crafty Mole at Thirsk (14f, good to firm, 10/1) a fortnight ago.

16:30 Chester Handicap (Class 4) 14f  Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Trainer Andrew Balding won this contest last year and looks to have another ideal candidate in the shape of WHO'S GLEN, who was runner-up in a deep race at Southwell last time out. The son of Gleneagles looked in need of further on that occasion and he gets that opportunity now, with taking Ripon scorer Oosterpark looking best placed to chase him home. Consistent performer The Crafty Mole is another to bear in mind.

THE CRAFTY MOLE has thrived this season, recording a fifth win of the campaign when promoted to first at Thirsk (beaten by a head but suffered interference in the final 1f) on his latest outing, so he looks to hold leading claims. Who's Glen has also been going the right way this year and could be the main danger, ahead of Oosterpark.

Interesting turf debutant WHO'S GLEN is taken to defy top weight and open his account. Oosterpark is second choice.

17:05 Chester Handicap (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Love Billy Boy took the silver medal home at Ascot last week and is aided by his plum draw in stall one here, so he ought to go close off an unchanged mark. However, the vote goes to PAWS FOR THOUGHT, who is a four-time course winner and finished a close-up fourth over 6f here on his latest outing. Donald McCain's six-year-old can continue his fine form and return to winning ways. Mudamer and Mercurial are just two others to consider.

Irish-challenger MERCURIAL can race off the same mark as when a very good Roscommon runner-up last time out so looks the way to go here. Mudamer shaped well when a recent third at Beverley and is next on the list ahead of Brighton-scorer Berkshire Nugget and course-winner Love Billy Boy.

Mercurial has an unfavourable draw but otherwise holds major claims, while PHOENIX OF DREAMS and Quest For Fun are interesting.

1	1 1st (1) (6/4 +20%) Aviemore		1.5 6/4(+20%)																															(1) Aviemore 6/4, Off the mark when making all under Franny Norton at Ayr (10f) in July. Ran at least as well when second of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW, 9/2) 8 days ago, so he can build on his latest effort to resume winning ways. Good second at Lingfield (AW) last week; due to go up 2lb in future; respected.
2	7 2nd (7) (18/1 -80%) Phone Tag		18 18/1(-80%)																															(7) Phone Tag 18/1, Made the frame first 2 starts this season. Below form last 2 outings, though left poorly placed when seventh of 11 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good, 11/2) 60 days ago. Up in trip on first run for yard after leaving Hugo Palmer. Nicely weighted and has given the impression that 1m2f will suit; new stable.
3	3 3rd (3) (10/3 -11%) User Amistoso		3.333333 10/3(-11%)																															(3) User Amistoso 10/3, Best effort when third at this course (12.3f) in May. Bounced back from a lesser run when fourth of 12 in novice (9/2) at Southwell (12.1f) 42 days ago, but more required as he takes on his elders with cheekpieces added.

5th	5 5th (5) (33/1 -65%) Foreseen		33 33/1(-65%)																															(5) Foreseen 33/1, Winner at Chantilly on debut. However, after 4 months off (gelded/had wind op) he offered little on first run since leaving Francis-Henri Graffard when ninth of 10 in novice at Kempton (7f, 33/1) 16 days ago. Up in trip for his handicap bow. Down the field at Kempton on British debut; best watched.
6th	4 6th (4) (6/1 +25%) Classy Boy		6 6/1(+25%)																															(4) Classy Boy 6/1, Gained a second win of the year when making all at Carlisle in July, but ran no sort of race when last of 9 in handicap at Hamilton (9.2f, good, 12/1) a month ago. Needs to leave his latest effort well behind. Successful over 7.5f and 1m; something to prove over this new trip.

17:40 Chester Handicap (Class 4) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Celtic Warrior was just touched off by a neck when second in this grade at Epsom last month and should remain competitive off a 2lb higher rating. However, AVIEMORE ran a big race when runner-up over 1m4f on Lingfield's Polytrack off this mark last week and he is taken to go one better now returned to the trip and surface of his sole victory. User Amistoso is another to note in first-time cheekpieces.

AVIEMORE has benefited from going up in trip on his last 3 starts, producing a good effort when runner-up to a well-treated rival at Lingfield 8 days ago, so he is taken to double his tally this time around. Celtic Warrior ran well trying this distance for the first time on his latest outing and is respected.

The return to Chester, combined with first-time headgear, may enable USER AMISTOSO to get off the mark. Aviemore is second choice.

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
