Chester Festival Tips: Crabbie`s Earl Grosvenor Handicap

March 06, 2016 14:10pm - Chester

(4yo+, 1m 2f 75y, Class 3)

Chester - Boodles May Festival

Gabrial`s Kaka has taken an early lead in the betting market and can stake a claim to be a contender based on his performance at Chelmsford last month. He also has a course win and a distance victory under his saddle. However, he did not fare so well last time out and was beaten by Sound Advice at Haydock last year.

Sound advice has two C&D wins to his name and is back at the right level after a few outings in much tougher company. Another contender is Archie who gave a good account of himself when finishing fourth at Kempton in his first race of the season.

Bold Prediction has decent credentials with a couple of wins already this year and a respectable fourth in the Lincoln Trial at Wolverhampton last time out.

Betting odds and tips

There are plenty of valid contenders in this one but Sound Advice can be expected to shine in this field.

Sound Advice can be backed at 6/1.
