A typically challenging Chepstow handicap sees those with the better recent form not faring well in the draw. That could make the perceived bias less of a factor and improve the prospects of the likes of Tripartite and Barista. The pace angle would suggest that Imperial Link will lead out towards the centre. That helps Daily Trader, Pick A Little and ZARIA. The former has won two races for his in form yard and drops in trip having failed over further recently. Pick A Little is a prolific winner who arrives on a good mark and with his small yard going well. ZARIA has less obvious prospects having been well beaten on her return. The mare was apprentice ridden on on that occasion when switched to race on the unfavoured side of the track here. She goes well for this rider and is now better weighted from a good draw.
