Michael Owen could be celebrating another ‘home’ victory at Chester today with EVER GIVEN.
The colt, owned by the Dandy Boys syndicate, makes his debut for trainer Hugo Palmer, who replaced Tom Dascombe at Owen’s Manor House stables in February. And my selection, a winner at the track last year and last seen when fourth in a Listed race at York last October, can make use of a handy low draw and a drop in grade to land the 6f Deepbridge Handicap (3.40).
Earlier on the card, STAR OF LADY M can take the opening ICM Stellar Sports Lily Agnes Conditions Stakes (1.30) over five furlongs. The filly won on her debut at Redcar and readily followed up at Ripon three weeks ago. From a good draw, she is expected to maintain her 100 per cent record.
