Chester Race 6

Precision Facades Handicap

Prize Money: AUD $55,350

It's unlikely CRYSTAL MARINER (10) gave his true running when last of six on handicap debut at Newmarket (July). Trained by Sir Michael Stoute he had wind surgery over the winter and given the promise shown prior to that effort it would hardly surprise this mark being within reach. Three-time course and distance winner BARYSHNIKOV (8) cannot be ignored under a penalty having scored tackling 2000m at Redcar recently. INSPIRITUS (1) proved progressive on the AW. Racing for trainer Roger Varian this recent Lingfield AW (2000m) handicap winner could be in the mix revisiting turf from a nice draw. PEARL EYE (5) is another to note.

Useful type. Comes off a 41 day let-up. Most recently favourite; won by 1.3 len at Lingfield All Weather March 29 over 2000m defeating Civil Law with 59kg at $4.50. The race before that 2nd of 9 at Lingfield All Weather on March 1 over 2000m, 1.5 len behind Bystander carrying 61kg at $3.30. No reason he cannot salute again.

Useful type. Comes here off a 31-day let-up. Last start 2nd of 7 at Newcastle All Weather on April 8 over 2000m, neck behind Aerospace carrying 57.5kg at $11. The run before that won by a nose at Newcastle All Weather March 15 over 2000m defeating Isle Of Sark carrying 56.5kg at $13. Must be respected.

Going well. Most recently won by 0.5 len at Redcar May 2 over 2000m on a rain affected track defeating Hopeful with 59kg at $3.50. Before that 4th of 9 at Pontefract on April 22 over 2000m, on a slow track; 7 len behind Bolster with 55kg at $9.50. Plenty to like about his prospects.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield
