13:50 Catterick Handicap (Class 6) 7f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	2 1st (2) (10/1 -43%) Obee Jo	10 10/1(-43%)	(2) Obee Jo 10/1, C&D winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. 25/1, below form ninth of 17 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, heavy) on return 17 days ago. Very interesting off career-low mark back at scene of his last success. Five wins in all but none last year and his return at Doncaster was nothing to shout about.
2	8 2nd (8) (6.5/1 +24%) Mutanaaseq	6.5 6.5/1(+24%)	(8) Mutanaaseq 6.5/1, Twenty five runs since last win in 2021. 15/2, bit below form sixth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 10 days ago, not much room. Shaping up well. He's dangerous off this mark and his recent races haven't been going to plan..
3	4 3rd (4) (2.25/1 -38%) Two Summers	2.25 2.25/1(-38%)	(4) Two Summers 2.25/1, Course winner. 5/1, good second of 17 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, heavy) 17 days ago, clear of rest. Expected to be bang there again. Course winner who has started the season well and highly likely to be involved..
4	1 4th (1) (12/1 +0%) End Zone	12 12/1(+0%)	(1) End Zone 12/1, Hasn't won for a while but is becoming feasibly treated. Thirteenth of 14 in handicap (10/1) at Wetherby (8f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Blinkers back on. Interesting down in grade. He's only 4-44 overall and his recent efforts have been below par..
5th	6 5th (6) (7/1 +50%) Mr Strutter	7 7/1(+50%)	(6) Mr Strutter 7/1, 3-time C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. 7/1, bit below form seventh of 12 in handicap at Pontefract (8f, good to soft) 12 days ago, not ideally placed. Hit and miss but usually goes well here. Has won plenty down the years and his reappearance was encouraging..
6th	5 6th (5) (11/1 -22%) Clotherholme	11 11/1(-22%)	(5) Clotherholme 11/1, C&D winner. 7/1, respectable seventh of 14 in handicap at Beverley (7.4f, soft) 14 days ago. Dropped to a handy mark. On a handy mark and would have finished closer with a clear run at Beverley..
7th	7 7th (7) (6.5/1 +46%) Liberty Breeze	6.5 6.5/1(+46%)	(7) Liberty Breeze 6.5/1, 12/1, last of 11 in handicap at Thirsk (7f, soft) on return 41 days ago. Form figures of 311 over C&D last season. Dual C&D winner on drier ground; finished tailed off on her soft-ground return..
8th	3 8th (3) (12/1 -33%) Rain Cap	12 12/1(-33%)	(3) Rain Cap 12/1, Course winner. 11/1, very good fourth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 16 days ago, running on. Has form here, ran well on the AW last time and nothing wrong with his mark..
9th	9 9th (9) (7.5/1 -36%) Dreamcasing	7.5 7.5/1(-36%)	(9) Dreamcasing 7.5/1, 10/3, bit below form seventh of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) on return 10 days ago, not clear run. Has races in him. Has the ability to win off this mark if he can kick the habit of starting slowly..

LTO Selection:

13:50 Catterick Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Based on the summary, the horses that are most likely to do well and finish in the top three are 5.5/1 (9) DREAMCASING, 1.63/1 (4) TWO SUMMERS, and 7/1 (2) OBEE JO. 5.5/1 (9) DREAMCASING has the ability to win off this mark and has races in him, 1.63/1 (4) TWO SUMMERS has started the season well and is highly likely to be involved, and 7/1 (2) OBEE JO is interesting off a career-low mark and is a C&D winner. However, as with all horse races, there is always an element of unpredictability and any horse could surprise and finish in the top three.

Liberty Breeze has won two of his three starts over this C&D, with the latest of those wins coming off this mark in July last year, but he will need to step up on a disappointing run (last of 11) at Thirsk on his return to have a say. Two Summers was only beaten a neck at Doncaster last time but has an added 4lb now and a chance is taken on RAIN CAP, who was only beaten a length at Wolverhampton last month and has winning form on a similar surface.

OBEE JO has dropped to a career-low mark and could be set to cash in back at the scene of his last success following a satisfactory return at Doncaster. Two Summers went close in that same race and can make another bold bid despite a 4 lb rise. Liberty Breeze is another to note back at Catterick (both her wins have come here).

The suggestion is MUTANAASEQ, who is probably in better form than this season's form figures may imply.

1	3 1st (3) (0.73/1 +58%) Majestic Beauty	0.73 0.73/1(+58%)	(3) Majestic Beauty 0.73/1, Foaled March 31. 40,000 gns yearling, £90,000 2-y-o, Havana Grey filly. Half-sister to several winners, including useful 2-y-o 6f winner Mr Wizard and winner around 6f Enduring. Dam sprint maiden. Only withdrawn late from her intended debut at Ascot on Friday and this looks easier..
2	4 2nd (4) (2.5/1 -67%) Specific Times	2.5 2.5/1(-67%)	(4) Specific Times 2.5/1, Foaled March 6. Blue Point filly. Dam, 2-y-o 5f winner who stayed 7f, half-sister to very smart winner up to 8.5f Newspaperofrecord out of useful winner up to 7f (2-y-o 6f winner) Sunday Times. 8/1, promising fifth of 9 in maiden at Newmarket (5f, good to soft) on debut 26 days ago. The one to beat. Showed plenty of early dash before weakening into fifth at Newmarket..
3	2 3rd (2) (4/1 -33%) Harvanna	4 4/1(-33%)	(2) Harvanna 4/1, Foaled March 5. 9,000 gns foal, €58,000 yearling, Havana Grey filly.

Dam, 6f/7f winner (including at 2 yrs), half-sister to useful winner up to 9f Nocturnal Secret. 11/1, sixth of 8 in minor event at Redcar (5f, heavy) on debut 28 days ago. Needs big step forward. Showed some early speed but was beaten 10l in the end at Redcar (5f, soft)..

LTO Selection:

14:20 Catterick Maiden (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the summary provided, it seems like 1.5/1 (4) SPECIFIC TIMES is the horse to beat, with promising early dash in a recent maiden race and strong breeding pedigree. Therefore, 1.5/1 (4) SPECIFIC TIMES is likely to finish in 1st place. In terms of 2nd and 3rd place, it is difficult to predict without more information on the other horses' recent form and performances.

SPECIFIC TIMES showed some promise when fifth on her Newmarket debut, despite becoming unbalanced at a crucial stage, and if she has learned from that experience, then she may be able to come out on top in this small field. Majestic Beauty looks the better of the two newcomers on paper, as a half-sister to Mr Wizard, and she may be good enough to pick up second place, although Harvanna is also a daughter of Havana Grey and might have a say as well.

SPECIFIC TIMES is bred and built for sprinting and she showed enough on debut in a better race than this at Newmarket to suggest she'll soon be winning. That said, Majestic Beauty and Harvanna are newcomers with plenty going for them on paper.

This can go to MAJESTIC BEAUTY, who was taken out of her intended debut at Ascot on Friday due to the testing ground.

14:20 Catterick Maiden (Class 5) 5f PREDICTION SIMULATION

14:50 Catterick Handicap (Class 6) 5f - 13 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	9 1st (9) (3/1 +81%) Laakhof	3 3/1(+81%)	(9) Laakhof 3/1, Maiden who ended last term in disappointing fashion, fifteenth in 21-runner handicap at the Curragh (5f) on final start in August. Joined new yard for 10,000 gns in October and the betting should prove a useful guide here. Tongue tie on 1st time.
2	4 2nd (4) (6/1 -50%) Zoom Star	6 6/1(-50%)	(4) Zoom Star 6/1, C&D winner. 10/3, ran right up to best when second of 8 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, soft) 23 days ago, running on. Big shout with a repeat from handy draw.
3	2 3rd (2) (5.5/1 -22%) Golden Gal	5.5 5.5/1(-22%)	(2) Golden Gal 5.5/1, C&D winner. Bit below form 3 lengths fourth of 10 to Astapor in handicap at this C&D (good to soft, 14/1) 19 days ago, no extra final 1f. Feasible to think she'll be sharper with that under her belt and possibilities now operating 2 lb below last winning mark.
4	1 4th (1) (4/1 +20%) Astapor	4 4/1(+20%)	(1) Astapor 4/1, Career best when winning 10-runner handicap (8/1) at this C&D (good to soft) 19 days ago, leading close home. Much better positioned than the majority on that occasion but not ruled out with a repeat.
5th	5 5th (5) (16/1 -33%) Imperial Khan	16 16/1(-33%)	(5) Imperial Khan 16/1, Fifth of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (5f, 7/2) 7 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Has work to do.
6th	3 6th (3) (9/1 +18%) Latin Five	9 9/1(+18%)	(3) Latin Five 9/1, 15/2, fifth of 7 in handicap at Newcastle (5f) 10 days ago, brief headway 2f out but no further impression. Mark has eased a little more at least.
7th	7 7th (7) (25/1 -257%) Jumira Bridge	25 25/1(-257%)	(7) Jumira Bridge 25/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in May. Creditable third of 7 in handicap (11/2) at Chelmsford City (6f) 11 days ago, keeping on without threatening. Not discounted in present groove from lower turf mark.
8th	8 8th (8) (22/1 -10%) Captain Corcoran	22 22/1(-10%)	(8) Captain Corcoran 22/1, C&D winner. Seventh of 8 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, soft, 7/1) 23 days ago, headed over 2f out and weakening. Mark is steadily easing but others make more appeal for win purposes here.
9th	11 9th (11) (16/1 +43%) Miss Anaco	16 16/1(+43%)	(11) Miss Anaco 16/1, One win from 22 Flat runs. Visored for 1st time, tenth of 13 in minor event at Southwell (6.1f, 16/1) 67 days ago.
10th	12 10th (12) (8/1 -33%) Congress	8 8/1(-33%)	(12) Congress 8/1, Maiden who made more impact than previously when third in 12-runner handicap at Southwell (6f) 4 days ago, keeping on. Remains less exposed than most if he can build on that now.
11th	13 11th (13) (66/1 -100%) Amazing Arthur	66 66/1(-100%)	(13) Amazing Arthur 66/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 100/1, sixth of 9 in minor event at Beverley (5f, good) in September, brief headway under 2f out and no further impression. Entitled to hold more chance now handicapping on return and the market should prove a useful guide.
12th	10 12th (10) (50/1 +0%) Billy Dylan	50 50/1(+0%)	(10) Billy Dylan 50/1, Forty runs since last win in 2018. 66/1 and blinkered for 1st time, eighth of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (5f). Off 109 days and others preferred on balance.
13th	6 13th (6) (22/1 -57%) Rockley Point	22 22/1(-57%)	(6) Rockley Point 22/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Newcastle in March. 17/2, respectable third of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (5f) 7 days ago. Each-way claims again returned to turf.

LTO Selection:

14:50 Catterick Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Based on the summary, the horses that have the most potential to finish in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd are: 1st: 4/1 (4) ZOOM STAR - who ran right up to their best in their last race and has a handy draw. 2nd: 5/1 (1) ASTAPOR - who won their last race and is not ruled out for a repeat performance. 3rd: 14/1 (6) ROCKLEY POINT - who had each-way claims in their last race and has previous experience on turf. It's worth noting that the summary suggests some of the horses have work to do or are less likely to perform well, so these predictions are subject to changes in form and factors such as market fluctuations.

Zoom Star has won twice over C&D on ground with plenty of cut in it and he is one to take seriously now, but if GOLDEN GAL improves at all for her first start after a wind-op, when fourth here last month, then she could be well handicapped. A comfortable winner on soft ground off 2lb higher here last summer, she may win for the fourth time, with the ex-Irish Laakhof one to watch in the market in a first-time tongue-tie.

A dual C&D winner, GOLDEN GAL shaped well on the back of 6 months off when fourth in a C&D handicap won by Astapor 3 weeks ago and, entitled to be sharper with that under her belt, she's fancied to go well now operating from a 2 lb lower mark. Zoom Star, following her Nottingham second, and Congress are also considered, whilst aforementioned Astapor can't be dismissed lightly either.

Astapor's recent C&D win reads well enough but ZOOM STAR's record on soft ground stands up to scrutiny and she's preferred.

15:20 Catterick Stakes (Class 5) 7f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (1.75/1 +50%) Themainprotagonist	1.75 1.75/1(+50%)	(5) Themainprotagonist 1.75/1, Fair form in 2 outings over 7f on AW this spring. If proving as effectve on turf he should play a prominent role for his in-form stable. Performed to a similar level in two starts on the AW; handicaps likely next on the agenda.
2	3 2nd (3) (2.25/1 +10%) Opera Legend	2.25 2.25/1(+10%)	(3) Opera Legend 2.25/1, Only minor promise in 2 starts last autumn but he's in top hands and it wouldn't be any surprise to see him go on to better things this year. Gelded since last seen; likely capable of much better for a yard with a good record here.
3	9 3rd (9) (5/1 -100%) Laura's Breeze	5 5/1(-100%)	(9) Laura's Breeze 5/1, €140,000 Ribchester filly who didn't shaped too badly when fourth of 6 in a 7f Newbury newcomers event (heavy ground) 24 days ago. May do better and likely to be in the thick of things here. 140,000gns yearling who shaped fairly on her Newbury debut; will have learned from that.
4	4 4th (4) (100/1 -100%) Pete The Brief	100 100/1(-100%)	(4) Pete The Brief 100/1, More one for the longer term judged on his recent 6f Doncaster debut. Well held on his 6f debut recently; the best of him may not be seen until handicapping.
5th	6 5th (6) (150/1 -200%) Elizabeth's Joy	150 150/1(-200%)	(6) Elizabeth's Joy 150/1, Washington Dc filly. Half-sister to 1¼m-1½m winner Cheap Jack and 5f/6f winner Mattice. Dam 8.4f winner. Watching brief is advised on debut. Dam has produced two winners; likely she's one for handicaps down the line.
6th	10 6th (10) (5.5/1 +0%) Pretty Flag	5.5 5.5/1(+0%)	(10) Pretty Flag 5.5/1, Bought for 32,000 gns earlier this year and is a U S Navy Flag half-sister to useful German 7f winner Libre. Excellent stable won this with a newcomer last year. 120,000gns yearling; yard's newcomers are quite capable and the market should tell a tale.
6th	2 6th (2) (200/1 -150%) Jailhouse Rock	200 200/1(-150%)	(2) Jailhouse Rock 200/1, Coach House gelding. Half-brother to 7f winner Darcy's Rock. Dam 5f winner. Likely outsider on debut. Half-brother to low-grade handicap winner; apprentice-ridden on debut; likely best watched.
8th	1 8th (1) (8/1 -23%) Final Credit	8 8/1(-23%)	(1) Final Credit 8/1, 100,000 gns New Bay gelding. Dam, US 8.5f/9f winner, half-sister to Canadian Grade 3 9f-11f winner Raylene out of 2-y-o 5f/6f winner Petite Princess. Newcomer from a good yard and starts out in a winnable race. Much respected if the betting vibes are strong. Went for 100,000gns as a yearling; the market will show what's expected.
9th	8 9th (8) (33/1 +34%) Ladylingmoor	33 33/1(+34%)	(8) Ladylingmoor 33/1, 25/1, last of 8 in maiden at Thirsk (7f, heavy) on debut 9 days ago. The bigger price of her trainer's pair when last of eight on her recent soft-ground debut.
10th	7 10th (7) (125/1 -213%) Heartlander	125 125/1(-213%)	(7) Heartlander 125/1, Modest form in 2 runs for George Boughey at the end of 2022. Likely outsider on return for new stable. Picked up from George Boughey for 6,000gns; another who needs this run for a handicap mark.

LTO Selection:

15:20 Catterick Stakes (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Predicted 1st: 5.5/1 (10) PRETTY FLAG Predicted 2nd: 2.5/1 (9) LAURA'S BREEZE Predicted 3rd: 3.5/1 (5) THEMAINPROTAGONIST

Laura's Breeze, a half-sister to three-time 5f winner Peerless, is respected after she made a pleasing start over this trip in hot-looking Newbury maiden last month. She should be wiser for the experience and rates a key player today. However, FINAL CREDIT, who cost 100,000gns as a yearling, also has a striking pedigree and looks a tad more appealing given this sort of distance appears to be an ideal staring point on paper. Opera Legend is also considered.

George Boughey won this with a newcomer last year so the suggestion is PRETTY FLAG, with confidence in her chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Laura's Breeze and Themainprotagonist look best of those with experience, while Final Credit is another debutant who is a likely type on paper and needs keeping a close eye on in the betting.

William Haggas is 29-88 here and OPERA LEGEND is surely capable of better having been gelded. Laura's Breeze is the obvious danger.

15:50 Catterick Handicap (Class 5) 16f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	3 1st (3) (5/1 +41%) Flint Hill	5 5/1(+41%)	(3) Flint Hill 5/1, Hs good record at Pontefract and ran creditably when fourth of 8 there (18f, heavy) last month. Only sixth of 7 in handicap at Doncaster (16.5f, heavy, 17/2) last time but best form puts him in the mix. Wins have come round stiffer courses; beaten a long way behind Quercus Robur latest.
2	1 2nd (1) (4/1 +0%) Quercus Robur	4 4/1(+0%)	(1) Quercus Robur 4/1, 2 wins from 6 runs this year. Latest win at Newcastle in January. 10/3, seemed to find test too much when fifth of 7 in handicap at Doncaster (16.5f, heavy) 17 days ago but is a reliable sort who should bounce back quickly under less extreme conditions. Said to have been unsuited by soft last time but it may be the handicapper has caught up.
3	7 3rd (7) (3.33/1 -33%) Cold Henry	3.33 3.33/1(-33%)	(7) Cold Henry 3.33/1, Relished longer trip when scoring over C&D in September and came from a long way back to follow in a similar contest the following month. Remains unexposed as a staying handicaper and looks the one to beat on return. Finished last season on a high; this is stronger off 4lb higher but could well be up to it.
4	5 4th (5) (2.5/1 +29%) Robert Johnson	2.5 2.5/1(+29%)	(5) Robert Johnson 2.5/1, Improved to win at Catterick (12.1f, soft, 33/1) in April before following up in 10-runner handicap (10/3) at Thirsk (12f, heavy) 4 days ago, pushed out. Carries penalty. Significantly up in trip but has to respected in his current form. This is a bit stronger under penalty and has stamina to prove but he enters calculations.
5th	2 5th (2) (6.5/1 +13%) Oasis Prince	6.5 6.5/1(+13%)	(2) Oasis Prince 6.5/1, C&D winner. 17/2, creditable third of 8 in handicap at Thirsk (14f, heavy) 9 days ago, well positioned. Seems to have ironed his quirks out and rates as shortlist material. Easy C&D winner off similar mark last summer; good chance for yard in scintillating form.
6th	4 6th (4) (80/1 -471%) Vintage Valley	80 80/1(-471%)	(4) Vintage Valley 80/1, Seen to good effect from front when second of 9 in handicap at Southwell (16.5f, 50/1) last month but seemed to find step up in trip too much down the field at Pontefract (21.6f, good to soft, 18/1) last time. Not discounted. Very patchy under both codes and his best Flat efforts have come on Tapeta.
7th	6 7th (6) (9/1 -6%) Visite Officielle	9 9/1(-6%)	(6) Visite Officielle 9/1, Below form fourth of 10 in handicap at Pontefract (21.6f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Back down in trip. Has work to do. Ex-French mare who was again beaten a fair way last time but who's on a fair mark now.

LTO Selection:

15:50 Catterick Handicap (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

1st: 2.5/1 (7) COLD HENRY 2nd: 7.5/1 (2) OASIS PRINCE 3rd: 4/1 (1) QUERCUS ROBUR

Cold Henry finished last season with a couple of C&D wins and is high on the shorlist resuming from just a 4lb higher mark. Quercus Robur also warrants consideration given he still has scope to improve over the trip and might find it easier to give weight away now he drops in class. However, the vote goes to ROBERT JOHNSON, who has proven his stamina over hurdles and looks progressive enough to defy the 5lb penalty for winning over 1m4f at Thirsk last week.

COLD HENRY has been an improved performer since stepping up to long distances and signed last season off with a pair of C&D successes, so is fancied to continue his progress on return. Oasis Prince ran respectably at Thirsk last time and should be in the mix again, whilst the thriving Robert Johnson would surely be a player if seeing out this longer trip.

Hat-trick chasers Robert Johnson and Cold Henry have claims, but OASIS PRINCE (nap) looks the one for his red-hot yard.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (14/1 -75%) Redrosezorro	14 14/1(-75%)	(5) Redrosezorro 14/1, 3-time C&D winner. 50/1, below form ninth of 16 in handicap at Haydock (6f, good to firm) 16 days ago. Others more persuasive. Goes well here but might still be finding his feet for a new yard..
2	7 2nd (7) (8.5/1 -13%) Mews House	8.5 8.5/1(-13%)	(7) Mews House 8.5/1, C&D winner. In good form until only fifth of 7 in handicap at Redcar (5f, good to soft) 11 days ago. Sort to bounce back. Good second at Pontefract and then reportedly ran flat only the day after..
3	10 3rd (10) (9/1 +36%) Wade's Magic	9 9/1(+36%)	(10) Wade's Magic 9/1, Course winner. Suffered a poor run when eighth of 10 in handicap at Wetherby (5.5f, good to soft, 14/1) 15 days ago. One for the shortlist off an easing mark. Not had the best of runs on either start this season and he's on a competitive mark..
4	3 4th (3) (3.33/1 +5%) Langholm	3.33 3.33/1(+5%)	(3) Langholm 3.33/1, Course winner who arrives in good nick, second of 10 in handicap at this course (7f, soft, 10/3) 19 days ago. Not taken lightly off the same mark. Returns here after two good efforts over 7f but he's only 1-9 at sprint distances..
5th	8 5th (8) (11/1 +31%) Hurstwood	11 11/1(+31%)	(8) Hurstwood 11/1, Three-time 6f winner from 9 runs last year but not best drawn/off five months before eleventh of 15 in handicap (28/1) at Thirsk (6f, heavy) 23 days ago. Needs considering. Needed to run better at Thirsk to be seriously considered..
6th	9 6th (9) (20/1 +9%) Round The Island	20 20/1(+9%)	(9) Round The Island 20/1, Course winner. 125/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) when last seen 6 months ago. Unreliable type. Saves his best for Pontefract and has never won on his first start of the year..
7th	4 7th (4) (6/1 +33%) John Kirkup	6 6/1(+33%)	(4) John Kirkup 6/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. 8/1, only fourth of 6 in handicap at Ripon (5f, heavy) 3 days ago so needs a couple of these to falter. Excuses on return and then didn't shape too badly in a small field at Ripon..
8th	2 8th (2) (3.33/1 +0%) Lezardrieux	3.33 3.33/1(+0%)	(2) Lezardrieux 3.33/1, C&D winner who shaped well after 6 months off when second of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 7 days ago, collared only late on. Big shout off an unchanged mark. Ran well after a break last week and he's a nicely handicapped C&D winner..
9th	6 9th (6) (6/1 +8%) Shabaaby	6 6/1(+8%)	(6) Shabaaby 6/1, Scrored at Dundalk in January. Best effort for his current yard when third of 7 in handicap (20/1) at Ayr (5f, good to firm) 11 days ago, nearest finish. Well in the mix. Ran his best race yet for this yard when a close third over 5f at Ayr; fair mark now..
10th	1 10th (1) (50/1 -79%) Showmolina	50 50/1(-79%)	(1) Showmolina 50/1, Ex-Irish 6f winner but he came in only tenth of 11 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, heavy, 16/1) 23 days ago. Needs a big step forward. Dual Irish winner but made a quiet debut for this yard after changing hands for £2,000.

LTO Selection:

16:20 Catterick Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the information given, it is difficult to confidently predict which horse will finish in the top three. However, some horses that may be worth considering are 6.5/1 (6) SHABAABY, 8/1 (5) REDROSEZORRO, 3.5/1 (3) LANGHOLM, 3.33/1 (2) LEZARDRIEUX, and 14/1 (10) WADE'S MAGIC. 6.5/1 (6) SHABAABY has recently run a close third in a race and has a fair mark, while 8/1 (5) REDROSEZORRO has won at this course multiple times but had a below form performance in the last race. 3.5/1 (3) LANGHOLM has had two good efforts over longer distances and has performed well at this course. 3.33/1 (2) LEZARDRIEUX has the advantage of being a nicely handicapped C&D winner and performed well in a recent race after a break. Finally, 14/1 (10) WADE'S MAGIC has suffered some poor runs but may be a contender with an easing mark. Ultimately, it is up to the individual to make their own prediction based on the information provided.

Lezardrieux won over C&D off 1lb lower last September and is respected after returning with a good second on the all-weather last week, while Redrosezorro is a seven-time course winner who can never confidently be ruled out back at his seemingly favourite course. However, slight preference is for LANGHOLM, who is versatile regarding the trip and ground, and, having gone close over 7f here in both of his last two outings, dropping back in distance can prompt a return to winning ways today.

LEZARDRIEUX made a promising return when collared only late on at Newcastle a week ago so this C&D winner is fancied to go one better off an unchanged mark. Course-scorer Langholm is feared most on the back of a good recent second here, with Hurstwood and Shabaaby completing the shortlist.

Preference is for LEZARDRIEUX, a well-handicapped C&D winner who made a pleasing return last week on the AW.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	8 1st (8) (11/1 +8%) Think Trigger	11 11/1(+8%)	(8) Think Trigger 11/1, First run since leaving Gary Moore when fourth of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (10.1f, heavy, 50/1) 30 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Place possibilities off this 1 lb lower mark. Unraced over this far but a pleasing first run for this yard when close up at Yarmouth..
2	5 2nd (5) (0.8/1 +51%) Turbulent Power	0.8 0.8/1(+51%)	(5) Turbulent Power 0.8/1, Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. Good second of 10 in handicap (13/8) at Thirsk (12f, heavy) 4 days ago, clear of rest. Has good chance on form. Now 0-25 but she's knocking loudly on the door; one of the few solid options..
3	6 3rd (6) (7/1 +13%) Prince Achille	7 7/1(+13%)	(6) Prince Achille 7/1, 33/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) on latest start in December. Step back up in trip looks a good move and while his record stands at 0-14, he's not without each-way hope. 14-race maiden; kept finding to make the frame at Chelmsford (1m2f) in December..
4	9 4th (9) (12/1 -85%) Milltown Lily	12 12/1(-85%)	(9) Milltown Lily 12/1, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. Creditable third of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (12.4f, 28/1) 32 days ago, running on late. Needs to pull out more if she's to break her duck here. Kept on for third on the AW last time and not had many chances at this trip..
5th	1 5th (1) (14/1 -75%) Jamih	14 14/1(-75%)	(1) Jamih 14/1, C&D winner. 18/1, respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Redcar (14f, good) when last seen in September. Each-way chance if fit enough to do himself justice back from a break. Just three wins during his 33-race career and they were all on good to firm..
6th	3 6th (3) (33/1 -136%) Trusty Scout	33 33/1(-136%)	(3) Trusty Scout 33/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in January. 25/1, below form seventh of 14 in handicap at Bath (10.2f, soft) 38 days ago, nearest finish. Enters calculations. Won a 1m4f AW classified event in January; it's a long time since he's run well on turf..
7th	2 7th (2) (80/1 -186%) Glan Y Gors	80 80/1(-186%)	(2) Glan Y Gors 80/1, Twenty-four runs since last win in 2020. Respectable fifth of 9 in handicap chase at Sedgefield (21.1f, good to soft, 33/1). Off 7 months and while his latest effort in this sphere was creditable, others are preferred. He's an 11yo now and has been well held in his last three runs, all of them chases..
8th	4 8th (4) (12/1 -9%) Sicario	12 12/1(-9%)	(4) Sicario 12/1, Latest win at Southwell in February. Fifth of 7 in handicap at Newcastle (12.4f, 15/2) 67 days ago. Vulnerable from a win point of view. Exposed 8yo who has been kept to the AW by his current trainer, winning twice..
9th	11 9th (11) (20/1 +39%) Seven For A Pound	20 20/1(+39%)	(11) Seven For A Pound 20/1, Unreliable sort. Eleven runs since last win in 2021. Tenth of 14 in handicap at this C&D (soft, 25/1) 19 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Others preferred. Inconsistent and 3-32; only tenth over C&D 19 days ago and needs to improve on that..
10th	10 10th (10) (11/1 -10%) Coup De Gold	11 11/1(-10%)	(10) Coup De Gold 11/1, 3/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, good third of 10 in handicap hurdle at Sedgefield (16.8f, heavy) 31 days ago. Poor on latest start in this sphere. He's in decent nick but an overall strike-rate of 1-52 jumps off the page..
11th	7 11th (7) (16/1 -60%) Lituus	16 16/1(-60%)	(7) Lituus 16/1, 9/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (12.4f) 32 days ago. Likely to come up short once more. 11-race maiden who certainly isn't improving and unraced on ground softer than good..

LTO Selection:

16:50 Catterick Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Based on the summary, 1.63/1 (5) TURBULENT POWER seems to be the most solid option and has a good chance of finishing in the top three. 14/1 (3) TRUSTY SCOUT and 8/1 (6) PRINCE ACHILLE could also be contenders for a place, but it is difficult to predict which of them will finish in 2nd or 3rd.

Turbulent Power has filled the runner-up spot on her last three starts, including twice over C&D last month, and another bold bid is expected following her most recent effort at Thirsk on Thursday. Jamih was in fine fettle last season, winning twice and placing on three occasions from seven outings, and has to be of considerable interest, but a chance is taken with SICARIO. The eight-year-old has mostly been a consistent performer since joining Mick Appleby last autumn and it would be no surprise if he returned to winning ways, especially having his first run on turf for the East Midlands handler.

While TURBULENT POWER remains a maiden following 17 appearances in this sphere, she has been knocking firmly on the door of late and is taken to deservedly open her account. Prince Achille should be on the premises if able to back up his latest effort and Jamih, who goes well here, won't be far away either if fully tuned-up for this assignment.

With most of her rivals having questions to answer on one count or another, this could be the day for TURBULENT POWER.

1	4 1st (4) (3.5/1 +0%) Jamil	3.5 3.5/1(+0%)	(4) Jamil 3.5/1, Won over C&D in spring of last year and far from disgraced when third of 10 in handicap (8/1) at Thirsk (12f, heavy) on return to level 4 days ago. One for the shortlist. C&D winner on good to soft and ran okay to be third at Thirsk four days ago..
2	5 2nd (5) (3.6/1 +49%) Purple Reign	3.6 3.6/1(+49%)	(5) Purple Reign 3.6/1, Bit below form seventh of 13 in handicap (13/2) at Bath (11.6f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Wasn't much of a run at Bath most recently and needs to leave that effort behind..
3	7 3rd (7) (5.5/1 +8%) Visitant	5.5 5.5/1(+8%)	(7) Visitant 5.5/1, Produced best effort for some time when runner-up at Thirsk (12f) last month and posted respectable sixth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (12.4f) since. Can make presence felt. Went close over this far on soft at Thirsk before running okay after a slow start on AW..
4	10 4th (10) (7.5/1 +58%) Odd Venture	7.5 7.5/1(+58%)	(10) Odd Venture 7.5/1, One win from 26 Flat runs. 16/1, eighth of 9 in minor event at Newcastle (10.2f) 62 days ago. Makes limited appeal. 1 lb out of the handicap. Claims can be made on his Irish form (including on soft) and hard to discount..
5th	1 5th (1) (50/1 -127%) Boudica Warrior	50 50/1(-127%)	(1) Boudica Warrior 50/1, First run since leaving Amy Murphy when last of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f, 40/1) 25 days ago. Back up in trip. Hard to fancy. 0-12 and has tried hurdling; finished last on her debut for this yard at Chelmsford..
6th	8 6th (8) (16/1 -14%) John The Pirate	16 16/1(-14%)	(8) John The Pirate 16/1, 15/2, sixth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f) 7 days ago. Work to do on turf debut. 1 lb out of the weights. Maiden under both codes and again failed to feature in the finish last week at Southwell..
7th	3 7th (3) (4.5/1 +25%) Tiberio Force	4.5 4.5/1(+25%)	(3) Tiberio Force 4.5/1, Below form seventh of 14 in handicap at Doncaster (11.9f, soft, 25/1) 16 days ago, hampered. Others preferred. Doubts about him on softish ground and those weren't quashed 16 days ago..
8th	2 8th (2) (5.5/1 -144%) Haseef	5.5 5.5/1(-144%)	(2) Haseef 5.5/1, First run for new connections when respectable fifth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 20 days ago, never nearer. Figures on a handy mark and must enter calculations despite reservations about this longer trip. Debut for this yard wasn't devoid of promise but not a certain stayer over this far..
9th	6 9th (6) (28/1 -56%) Silver Vision	28 28/1(-56%)	(6) Silver Vision 28/1, Unseated rider in handicap hurdle (100/1) at Perth (20.2f, soft) 17 days ago. Down in trip. Poor on last Flat run. Readily opposed. Modest hurdle form since winning a maiden in Nov; Flat profile not that convincing..
10th	9 10th (9) (40/1 -43%) Skedaddled	40 40/1(-43%)	(9) Skedaddled 40/1, Creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at Beverley (9.9f, good to firm, 18/1). Off 8 months. Up in trip. Others more persuasive. 1 lb out of the weights. She's 0-14 now and this longer trip could be a stretch on slow ground..

LTO Selection:

17:20 Catterick Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Based on the summary provided, it is difficult to confidently predict which horse will finish in first, second, and third place. However, 6/1 (7) VISITANT and 4/1 (4) JAMIL may have a competitive chance based on their recent form and previous performances. The other horses have either shown inconsistencies or lack of success in their recent runs, making their chances uncertain.

JAMIL shaped better than the distance he was beaten suggests when placing at Thirsk on Thursday and this appears to represent a fine opportunity for the eight-year-old in a contest that lacks depth on paper. Tiberio Force is likely to step forward from his return at Doncaster last month, while Visitant's second at Thirsk last month earns him a place on the shortlist.

Preference is for C&D winner JAMIL, who arrives on the back of a solid effort at Thirsk and is still on a workable mark. Haseef is nicely treated and will be dangerous if lasting out over this longer trip, whilst Visitant also enters calculations.

The 6yo ODD VENTURE might be worth chancing as some of his turf form in Ireland reads well in the context of today's company.

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
