14:45 Chester - 12 September 2025 - Results - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

The thriving MAYDAY MALONE hasn't finished out of the first 2 in his 4 visits to Chester and that seems likely to continue from the inside stall. Benacre won a competitive Racing League handicap at Southwell last time and is a big player along with last week's Ascot fourth Spirit Genie.

  1. MAYDAY MALONE
  2. BENACRE (IRE)
  3. SPIRIT GENIE (IRE)
