Horse racing tips TODAY: Chester, Fontwell, Kelso, Newton Abbot, Southwell | Racing | Sport

The top weight, trained by Richard Hughes, has been in great form this season with wins at Wolverhampton and Newmarket from his only two outings.

Shane Kelly, who has ridden the three-year-old in all his four races – he also won once as a juvenile – and will again be in the saddle.

Leodis Dream, who is on a five-timer for David O’Meara, and the Tom Dascombe -trained She Can Boogie, could make a fight of it.

Staying at Chester, SECRET THOUGHTS (nb, 2.25) can land the Cheshire Oaks for Ireland’s Aidan O’Bien, who could not be in better form after his Guineas double at the weekend.

Secret Thoughts has a third and fifth after two runs in Group Three events and could be good enough to take this Listed contest under Ryan Moore.

Her third behind Skitter Skatter reads well in the context of this race with that winner have won at Group One and Group Two level subsequently although she was disappointing in the 1,000 Guineas on Sunday.

Fanny Logan and Mehdaayih look the dangers.

Also at Chester, CHAPELLI (treble, 4.35) looks a decent bet in the sprint, the Homeserve Handicap over six furlongs.

The Mark Johnston-trained three-year-old was beaten only a nose by Isaan Queen at Chelmsford earlier this month and wasn’t far behind Top Breeze (today’s nap) when third on her previous run at Newmarket. She deserves a change of fortune.

Uncle Jerry and Pass The Gin, both in receipt of weight from the selection, might give her most to think about.
