Expresso delivery awaits at Chester; Saraband.L INCOLN winner Expresso Star can take the stepup in class in his stride and land the extra- bet.com Huxley Stakes The Huxley Stakes is a Group 3 flat horse race in the United Kingdom for four-year-old and above thoroughbreds run over a distance of 1 mile 2 furlongs and 75 yards (2,080 metres) at Chester Racecourse in May. It was raised to Group 3 status in 2005. at Chester. This race may only be a Group Three on paper, but it has attracted some top-class types, none more so than John Gosden's progressive four-year-old. The classy colt has something to find on official figures with the likes of Derby fourth Doctor Fremantle and Walter Swinburn's Staying On, but he is all about potential. Gosden was worried about the quick ground in the Lincoln, but the American-bred colt bounced of the surface and bolted up by two-and-a-half lengths. Aidan O'Brien always has to be respected when he decides to leave his Irish base for Britain, and Masterofthehorse sets a good standard in the Virgin Money Chester Vase. The Ballydoyle trainer may have been out of luck at Newmarket last weekend but one thing that did come out of the Classics was the strength in depth of the three-year-olds in Ireland. Barry Hills, who continues to break milestones and win big races, has always loved Chester, and Swilly Filly should win the Moscow Eight EBF EBF Ennis Business Forms, Inc. EBF European Business Forum EBF European Banking Federation EBF European Baptist Federation EBF Early B Cell Factor EBF Exclusively Breastfed EBF Ecumenical Bishops' Forum EBF Environmental Bamboo Foundation Maiden Stakes. Gosden can make it an acrossthe-card double with Time Machine in the London And Regent Maiden Stakes at Goodwood. Henry Candy's Cawdor makes his handicap debut in the Concophilips Jet Distributors Handicap at Windsor, and should go close. Royal Rationale can defy top weight in the Patsy Piper 60th Birthday Handicap Hurdle, while Alfred's Tower can score on his return to fences in the Holbrook House Restaurant & Spa Handicap Chase at Wincanton.
