2023 Chipchase Stakes Tips
The 2023 Chipchase Stakes looks set to be a wide open encounter and Annaf has previously posted victories for trainer Michael Appleby. The horse was sent off as a 50/1 outsider in the King’s Stand Stakes at Royal Ascot and managed to finish third, with connections delighted how the runner was able to perform over five furlongs. A repeat performance could be enough to land the spoils here.
Indeed, the horse has been running in esteemed company over the past few races and finished midfield at Haydock in the Betfred Temple Stakes, with El Caballo coming next in the betting for this race. The four-year-old put in a solid shift when finishing third in the recent John Of Gaunt Stakes and perhaps a shorter trip should suit on this occasion.
Brad The Brief is also capable of going well and it will be interesting to see how the six-year-old performs on his return to the track. There has been a lengthy absence since a lowly finish in the British Champions Sprint Stakes last October, although it’s hard to rule out a horse that managed to secure wins at Haydock and the Curragh last year.
Diligent Harry has previously landed a win at Newcastle this season when triumphing in the All-Weather Sprint Championships Conditions Stakes, with the horse then finishing sixth in a competitive Duke of York Clipper Stakes at York before finishing fourth in a listed race at Salisbury, with Tiber Flow a four-year-old who could also be in the mix.
