(Please be aware selections could become non-runners after article's first publication)

 

14:50 (Leicester) Primo Lara

Primo Lara made a good first impression when fourth behind Edge Of Blue at Yarmouth and is backed to build on that with a bold showing in the British EBF Maiden Stakes.

Jayne Chapple-Hyam’s half-brother to decent performers Statement and Self Belief was a 425,000 guineas purchase and attracted plenty of support in the market prior to his debut.

 

15:25 (Leicester) Adaay In Devon

Adaay In Devon may have bitten off more than she could chew when fifth in a valuable Goodwood contest last time out but is worth sticking with on her previous form in the British EBF 40th Anniversary Fillies’ Conditions Stakes.

Rod Millman’s filly had given the Horniwinks Racing Syndicate plenty of fun by completing a hat-trick of convincing victories when storming home by over four lengths at Carlisle and has established she likes plenty of cut underfoot.

 

16:00 (Leicester) Chris's Mate

Chris's Mate was just denied on handicap debut at Yarmouth and a bold bid is anticipated.

Bellestarr has only made the frame twice from ten starts however this is a moderate race in which she can make her presence felt.

Weston Court and Tres Chic should enter the calculations.

 

17:45 (Leicester) King Of Fury

King Of Fury placed both starts to date including on racecourse debut over course and distance and should be thereabouts.

Cervetto could be watched for any moves in the market returning from a substantial break representing new yard.

The Andrew Balding-trained Royal Jet reappears from over a year off the track and cannot be confidently dismissed.

Top Button is a gelding out of four-time G1 winner Starspangledbanner and shouldn't be ignored.

 

Leicester selections in full:

LEICESTER: 2.15 Macho Sun, 2.50 Primo Lara, 3.25 Adaay In Devon, 4.00 Chris's Mate, 4.35 Spirit Genie, 5.10 Lowton, 5.45 King Of Fury.
