Backing horses at Chester is a mug’s game. It’s like racing in a saucer. The only worthwhile bet used to be to back Lester Piggott drawn 1 on a sprint hot pot. Otherwise have a cup of tea instead in the saucer. I remember King George and dual Classic winner, Ragusa, being beaten at Chester by a nag called My Myosotis- prior to that late foal developing into one of the best three year olds of the century. That says it all.
