Chester Race 3 - Ire Incentive, It Pays To Buy Irish Mdn Stakes (Gbb Race)
STORM BLADE (5) Ran 5th last time at Sandown. Expected to rebound and drawn beautifully. Should race on the speed. Facing a stronger group of contenders. Looks promising. VELOCIRAPTOR (6) Managed to run into 3rd last start at Newmarket and having second career run. Possesses very good closing speed. Will try to take advantage of the draw. Hard to overlook. KATIE'S CAVALIER (1) Finished 6th last run at this venue. Looking for an improved run but challenged by more formidable competitors. Likely to get back in the field. Expect to go close. SEA IDOL (4) Finished 4th last start at Lingfield. Happy to forgive that run but rising in grade. Should be going forward early. Definite claims.

Was $10.00 and came in 6th last run at this venue. Looking for an improved run but taking on stronger rivals. Might be ridden for luck. Should put in a decent effort.

Started at $301.00 and finished 7th last run at Wolverhampton and challenged by a tougher grade. Should jump out and bowl along. Recent form of M Botti is strong. Others are more appealing.

Ran 4th last start at Lingfield. Happy to forgive that run but up against stronger opponents. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Good chance of taking this out.

Good effort to run 3rd last start at Newmarket and was a debutant last start. Has a nice turn of foot. Gets a favourable draw. Matched against tougher rivals. Should go very close.
