Chester Race 3 - Opera Grill Chester Selling Stakes
BONJOUR BELLE (5) Without Parole 2yo having first race appearance for trainer Brian Ellison. Great to see Ryan Sexton taking the ride. Watch early betting. NAVY LIGHT (4) Ran well when 2nd last start at Beverley and going up in trip. Deserves consideration. EM'S DILEMMA (6) 2yo by Bungle Inthejungle having first start for trainer David Evans. Betting as a guide. TURBO SHANDY (11) 2yo first starter sired by Kodiac for Ivan Furtado. Watch for a sign in the market.

Odds of $13.00 and just average when 10th last start at this track but fitter for debut run. Will struggle against these.
