Chester Race 2 - Ebf Restricted Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
CALICO BLUE (1) scored comfortably by 1.5L over course and distance on latest outing. Selected to go back-to-back. CAPALL RASA (3) is a two-year-old colt who was a noted purchase. Profiles well and warrants serious consideration. BLAZING (7) holds strong claims on the back of a 3.5L fourth attempting 1220m at Redcar most recently. Not discounted. WICKSEY (6) is a well-related two-year-old colt making his first appearance at the races. By Expert Eye from Dusty Red. Market check advised.

Lining up for just third start. At debut, made ground from midfield; 3rd of 13 at Leicester on May 27 over 1200m, 2.75 len behind Rock On Thunder with 60.5kg at $17. Last start favourite; tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 1.3 len at this track June 14 over 1200m defeating Chairmanfourtimes carrying 60.5kg at $3. Sure to measure up here.

At debut, 9th of 13 at Redcar on May 26 over 1000m, 9 len behind Miss Yechance carrying 60.5kg at $7. Should improve but still looking elsewhere.

Two-year-old colt (Tasleet - Vote Often) making his debut. Should get all the favours from this good gate so worth watching for any market confidence.

Was well-supported at debut, 4th of 10 at Redcar on May 19 over 1220m, 3.5 len behind Willowinghurn with 60.5kg at $3. Can break through with that experience under his belt.

Was as a despised roughie at debut, ran last in a small field at Ffos Las on June 29 over 1500m, on a slow track; 20 len behind Mostly Martha with 56kg at $151. Prefer to see again.

Was at very long odds at debut, second last in a small field at Ffos Las on June 29 over 1500m, slow going 16 len behind Mostly Martha with 56kg at $151. Has a lot of work to do.
