ITV racing tips: Chester – Matt Chapman’s top betting preview for Wednesday’s TV racing
Get all the info to bash the bookies as ITV's Matt Chapman runs you through Wednesday's racing live on ITV4
THE first Classics of the season are done, and now it's on to Chester for Derby and Oaks clues and four races on Wednesday live on ITV4.
Let's get straight to it, and the 1.50pm is the Lily Agnes, a conditions race for juveniles over an extended 5f.
As always the draw will be crucial. The one I like is LIHOU, who ran well in the Brocklesby first time for Dave Evans on turf and then lost the maiden tag at Kempton.
He has a good draw and can go very close with a bit of experience.
Next up is the Listed Cheshire Oaks over an extended 1m3 at 2.25pm.
I'll take a chance on the Ralph Beckett trained KINAESTHESIA, who won her maiden at Nottingham which is the track her trainer usually uses for his best filly youngsters.
FRANKIE'S OAKS GIRL Dettori 'keen' for Lah Ti Dar to run in the Oaks after Newmarket win
Obviously guesswork, but she might well be an each-way price.
Next up is a sprint handicap over 5f at 3.00pm.

SHOWMETHEDOUGH had a lovely come back run from off the pace at Thirsk not long ago but raced prominently when winning last season so can take advantage of a good draw for Richard Fahey. Again I will back each-way.
Finally, it's the Group 3 Chester Vase over an extended 1m4f at 3.35pm.
Matt Chapman's TV tips
1.50 Chester - Lihou: 'Has a good experience and experience will come in handy'
2.25 Chester - Kinaesthesia: 'Worth an each-way bet'
3.00 Chester - Showmethedough: 'Can take advantage of a good draw'
3.35 Chester - Hunting Horn: 'Should take plenty of beating after his Sandown run'
HUNTING HORN looked like a horse who would love a longer trip when third in the Classic Trial at Sandown and should take a bit of beating for Ryan Moore and Aidan O'Brien.
So let's hope for some Yeeehaaas. You Betcha!
