Verdict

A few of these are going to be ridden off the pace and the usual luck in running may be needed, even in this relatively small field, so a chance is taken that DANCE LEGEND comes back ready to go after a break, as she's got plenty of other things going for her - trip, ground, and may well lead these. If Franny Norton (and there's no man better around Chester) can get the fractions right, she could be hard to peg back. Both Mearing and Bacacarat are in good form but both have new questions to answer here.
  1. Dance Legend
  2. Mearing
  3. Bacacarat
