Sunday's Best Bets: Cotai can return to Glory at Chester

After just being touched off a 28-1 winner in the Stewards Cup, Tippin' Jimmy gives his verdict across Sunday's card.

2:45 Deauville (FRA) – Caravaggio (5/4)
I really believe Caravaggio is something quite special, the way he won at Ascot was absolutely awesome and I think I’ll struggle to look past him for a while now. The July Cup just didn’t go right, but he is the class horse in this race and I fully expect him to go out there and stamp his class on the race.

2:55 Dusseldorf (GER) – Wuheida (11/10)
Charlie Appleby has got a classy filly on her hands, and I do think she is the one to beat in the German Oaks. She won both starts of a juvenile, and returned from injury to chase home Roly Poly in the Falmouth. That run is massively encouraging, and she looks the best in the race by a bit.

3:40 Chester – Navarone (5/1)
Richard Fahey’s four-year-old was an encouraging winner back at Beverley a few starts ago, and has been in good form since that victory. He ran a great race to finish second at Ayr, before a tad below-par when fourth on return to Beverley. That was a good race, and he should be better than that performance. His draw isn’t ideal, but if he breaks well he has a strong chance.

4:15 Chester – Cotai Glory (9/4)
I am a big fan of this horse, and I do think today’s test will see how good he is. He’s run some good races over five furlongs, finishing midfield in the big races over the middle distance. Charlie Hills’ five-year-old steps up to six today, but that may help him out. He’s drawn well, and has a huge chance.

£1 Lucky 15 returns £300.
