14:10 Catterick Maiden (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

ASINARA was unable to build on the promise of her debut second at Kempton in March when third at Southwell later in the month. Given some time to recover, Charlie Hills' filly is likely to have benefited plenty from that outing and makes plenty of appeal on her turf debut. Highfield Heiress shaped as though an extra furlong would suit on her debut at Redcar, while newcomer Sense Of Spirit is capable of making an impact.

Not a strong maiden by any means so ASINARA gets the nod to build on her debut promise at the second attempt provided she takes to turf. Rapido Girl has improved in each of her 3 runs, so she can give the selection most to think about, with Highfield Heiress rounding off the shortlist on the back of an encouraging debut effort.

Another chance is given to ASINARA now switching to turf after 11 weeks off.

Low-key stable debut but faster ground & the return of headgear could give him a lift.

Rockin Rosa

8.5
17/2(+15%)
(10) Rockin Rosa 17/2, Third of 7 in handicap at this C&D (soft, 11/2) 16 days ago. Regular slow starts mean she'll likely need a couple of these to falter.
On a good mark and placed in 3 of her 4 runs this year; often slowly away so carries risk.

Shark Two One

Easy win at Redcar 12 days ago but 6lb rise, wide draw & faster ground could find him out.

14:45 Catterick Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Desert Dream returned to form with the tongue-tie reapplied at Redcar on his most recent start. However, a 6lb rise and the prospect of faster ground are enough to look elsewhere for win purposes. With that in mind, a chance is given to CUBAN FIESTA. Third on his handicap debut at Southwell, the son of Havana Grey was too keen for his own good when down the field at Yarmouth and the drop to 7f, along with the combination of a hood and cheekpieces for the first time, may see him in a better light. Others for the shortlist include Shark Two One and Rockin Rosa.

SHARK TWO ONE did really well to hold onto third under an aggressive ride at Leicester last time and Jessica Macey's gelding gets the verdict over Patontheback, who has slipped a long way in the weights and looked on good terms with himself despite finishing down the field over C&D last time. Recent Ripon winner Desert Dream completes the shortlist.

The 3yo Cuban Fiesta looks worth a crack at 7f but ONE MORE DREAM may be able to exploit his lowly turf mark dropped to a Class 6.

15:20 Catterick Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

A neck separated Homer Stokes and Miss Willows when they met over C&D last month and a 1lb swing at the weights may benefit the latter in her attempt to reverse the placings. Liberty Breeze is capable of being in the mix if ready to go on her first outing since December, but the vote goes to WITHOUT DELAY. A winner of her latest start at Musselburgh, she is taken to strike again off a 3lb higher mark.

SUNNY ORANGE produced an eye-catching effort at Redcar last month and can build on that effort to score for the first time since debut. Homer Stokes had slipped a long way in the weights when edging out Miss Willows over C&D last time and that pair complete the shortlist.

Neither Mutaaaseq nor SUNNY ORANGE saw any daylight at a crucial stage on their latest start. The latter just edges preference.

15:55 Catterick Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Given NORTHERNER was second to a horse now rated 80 at Musselburgh last month, the daughter of Profitable debuts in handicap from a highly-competitive mark of 64 based on a literal reading of the figures. A low draw could also be very beneficial for the selection, who can steal a march on the likes of Secret Command and Crack The Kode, both of whom are respected but will need to be sharply away to combat wide draws.

SECRET COMMAND made a good return to the track when second over C&D last month and might prove the answer to an open-looking sprint handicap. Crack The Kode was better than the result (met trouble) at Redcar last time and has dipped back to the mark he defied over C&D last autumn so it wouldn't be a surprise to see him play a prominent role. Alfa Moonstone is also shortlisted along with Brian Ellison handicap newcomer Northerner.

Northern Prince is open to lots of improvement but CRACK THE KODE, a dual course winner at two, looked on the way back last time.

(11) Calevade 80/1, Course winner. 17/2, turned in another woeful effort when last of 6 in handicap hurdle at Sedgefield (16.8f, heavy) 3 months ago. This a rare Flat start and others make more appeal.
Course winner in the summer of 2020, but last two efforts over hurdles have been poor.

Last month's fourth here was a step back in the right direction; each-way claims.

16:30 Catterick Handicap (Class 5) 14f Race Class Flow

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

LORD TORRANAGA justified good support in the betting when scoring in fine style over this course and distance eight days ago and rates the strongest contender off just 2lb higher. Weigh Anchor is also notable back on the Flat on just her second start after undergoing wind surgery, while Victoriano should have benefitted from last month's return to action at Thirsk and may offer some each-way value from 5lb below his last winning turf mark.

GIBSIDE shaped encouragingly after 7 months off when eighth at York last month and having stepped forward markedly from his reappearance the last couple of seasons, Tim Easterby's 5-y-o is fancied to notch career victory number 5 at the expense of Knights Affair, who is still low mileage in handicaps and ran up to his best when runner-up at Doncaster last week. Pons Aelius and recent C&D winner Lord Torranaga can fight out third spot.

This can go to PONS AELIUS who suggested he was returning to form when third here last time. He is 11lb below his last winning mark.

17:05 Catterick Handicap (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

TATTERSTALL possibly needed his first couple of starts this season and, given he won the 3YO 'Dash' at Epsom off 1lb higher last summer, this could be a good time to catch the Michael Dodds-trained gelding. Vadamiah was beaten by less than a length when third at Ripon 29 days ago and she can give the selection plenty to think about with that seasonal debut under her belt. Albegone and Ecclesiastical are old rivals who can also make their presence felt.

TATTERSTALL figures on an attractive mark and signalled he's ready to strike when a good third at Thirsk last time out so gets the vote in this competitive sprint. Ecclesiastical is next on the list after resuming from six months off with an encouraging C&D fifth, while Albegone, Khabib, Vadamiah and Jojo Rabbit can all make their presence felt.

Khabib was in front of TATTERSTALL at Thirsk last month but the placings may be reversed at this track.

17:40 Catterick Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow

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

Connections will be disappointed if a race of this nature wasn't within the reach of STARSHINE LEGEND at some point. The son of Sea The Stars hasn't cut much ice in his three qualifying runs, but a bold bid is expected now sporting first-time cheekpieces on his first start since being gelded. Livinthelife was unsuited by the way the race developed when finishing second at Yarmouth last week and he is respected off 1lb lower, while Thrilling Dream found only one rival too good over an extended 1m3f at Windsor last month and he must enter calculations despite being upped 4lb.

Following a winning handicap debut, THRILLING DREAM shaped well off a steady pace when runner-up at Windsor a fortnight ago, so he's fancied to get his head back in front for all that Starshine Legend looks a formidable opponent upped in trip off a feasible opening mark. Livingthelife should also give a good account.

Preference is for THRILLING DREAM (nap) who has improved since handicapping, winning at Bath and finishing second at Windsor.

18:10 Catterick Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

LANGHOLM has hit the woodwork on his last couple of starts, most recently being collared close home when attempting to make all over C&D last week, but with a 7lb claimer booked to negate a 3lb rise, he gets the vote to make every yard a winning one this time around. King Of Tonga had a subsequent winner back in second when scoring over C&D on his penultimate start and he commands respect off 3lb higher. Ghathanfar is down to an attractive mark and he completes the shortlist.

GATHANFAR ran a cracker to finish second over C&D last time and is worth a chance to go one better at the possible expense of course-regular Langholm, who reacted well to blinkers last time. Resilience is another player despite a four-month absence.

A repeat of GHATHANFAR's latest C&D second might suffice and he can end his losing run at the main expense of Music Society.

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.
