14.40 Chester - Above The Curve
By Kentucky Derby winner American Pharoah, Above The Curve can give the rest a pyramid to climb in the Weatherbys Bloodstock Pro Cheshire Oaks.
Smart filly.

Above The Curve (American Pharoah) is closely related to Giant's Causeway on the dam's side and impresses in the opener, justifying strong market support at @LeopardstownRC @JosephOBrien2 | @ShaneCrosse pic.twitter.com/reCj3zW77M
15.10 Chester - New London
Fresh from a 2000 Guineas one-two, Charlie Appleby can take the Group 3 Boodles Chester Vase Stakes with New London.
Sired by Dubawi, New London is general 5/1 second favourite for the Epsom Derby after back to back victories at Newmarket.
The step up to one mile, four and a half furlongs makes this an ideal Derby prep run and Williams Buick is a more than capable partner.
