14:00 (Chester) Alba Longa

Although ALBA LONGA was unable to complete a double at Goodwood in June, that third-placed finish was more than respectable and a similar performance off 1lb lower here may suffice.

Restorer has posted some creditable efforts over C&D of late and shouldn't be far away off his current mark.

Dreams Adozen and Neandra also have bits and pieces of form that give them a squeak too, in what looks an open affair.

14:30 (Chester) Pretence

PRETENCE drew clear with a progressive rival when second over C&D on her stable debut last month and a 6lb rise may not be enough to prevent Hugo Palmer's filly from going one better.

Making Dreams makes her nursery debut off what appears to be a fair mark judged on the maiden victory at Catterick last Wednesday and she may give the selection most to think about, with Guns And Flowers making most appeal of the remainder.

15:05 (Chester) Hidden Pass

HIDDEN PASS should have learned plenty from his narrow defeat on debut at Haydock last month and Charlie Appleby's colt is fancied to gain a breakthrough success at the second time of asking.

There was a lot to like about Aragon Castle's first victory at Epsom in July and he can't be taken lightly with Callum Hutchinson effectively negating half of the 6lb penalty with his claim.

Valadero also enters the reckoning on his best form and completes the shortlist.

15:38 (Chester) Noble Style

NOBLE STYLE is clear of these rivals on official ratings and this looks like a nice opportunity of bouncing back to form in these calmer waters after running in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot last time.

Connections have gelded him since that display and the application of blinkers may also aid his cause.

Richard Hannon's Ehraz is feared most after running with credit when fifth in the Hackwood at Newbury, while Mitbaahy should also be seriously considered.

16:08 (Chester) G'daay

G'DAAY shaped as if this slight step up in trip could unlock more improvement after scoring by a length over 7f at Epsom last time and he looks primed to offer another bold bid with a 3lb rise unlikely to halt his progression.

On The River returned to winning ways at Beverley on his latest start and a repeat of that run would see him enter the reckoning, while Ffion is capable of better in first-time cheekpieces.

16:38 (Chester) Stately Home

STATELY HOME wasn't beaten far when third over 1m2f at Sandown last time when taking a step back in the right direction and the six-year-old, who is only 1lb higher than his last winning mark, gets the vote.

First Impression filled the runner-up spot over 1m 2f at Ayr last time and commands plenty of respect, while Jean Baptiste has been given a chance by the handicapper to get involved.
