3/1(-50%)

Placed on three occasions on the AW in recent weeks, incl at Newcastle (6f); turf prowess?.
LTO Selection:

14:20 Catterick Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

NOBLE CAPTAIN has been running to a consistent level on the all-weather in recent starts. Katie Scott's unexposed three-year-old is fitted with first-time cheekpieces today and, should they bring about any further improvement, he might be the answer now back on the grass. Rajmeister is only 2lb higher than for May's Redcar success and must enter calculations, along with Woobay, who hit the woodwork at Hamilton nine days ago.

WOOBAY has been threatening to come good for a while and a repeat of her runner-up effort at Hamilton last week may enable her to go one place better. Lola's Moment shaped quite well on the AW last time and is a threat, with Noble Captain another to consider trying 5f for the first time.

The vote goes to WOOBAY who was arguably a shade unlucky at Hamilton last time, so could make amends.

Lotting's Lass

4.5
9/2(+10%)
(9) Lotting's Lass 9/2, 33/1, career best when winning 12-runner nursery at Southwell (5f) 6 days ago. Well on top at the finish there so she's a big player under a 6 lb penalty.

5f winner (good to soft); weakened out of it latest; up 4lb; more needed..
LTO Selection:

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

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

LOUELLA was no match for a progressive rival over 7f at Thirsk in August. Her pedigree would suggest she ought to have no problem with a drop in trip and, from just 3lb higher, the Invincible Army filly could open her account. Recent Chelmsford scorer Scoops Ahoy can mount another serious challenge, while market support for handicap debutant Jungle Jean should be noted.

A tight-knit nursery but John Quinn's filly LOTTING'S LASS looks the way to go under a 6 lb penalty for her convincing breakthrough success at Southwell only six days ago. Scoops Ahoy is feared most on the back of his Chelmsford victory, ahead of handicap debutant Blufferonthebus.

Kevin Ryan's gelding CRACK THE KODE won here on good to soft before finding it too testing at Thirsk. He is taken to get back on track.

(6) Last Applause 2/1, Once-raced maiden. Third of 11 in minor event at Newcastle (6f, 66/1) on debut 15 days ago. Could do better and should get competitive again.
Commendable third on Newcastle debut (6f, 66-1) a fortnight ago; extra yardage should suit.

(8) Nominal Event 11/4, Twice-raced maiden. 6/1, fourth of 7 in maiden at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Debut was promising and it's much too soon to be writing her off.
Failed to replicate Chester effort when in action at Hamilton last week; first go at 7f..

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.

Ribble Radiant struck on her debut at Beverley in June and, though respected, she has an absence to overcome and will need more under the penalty. With that in mind, the vote goes to LAST APPLAUSE. The daughter of Acclamation hit the frame over 6f at Newcastle first time out, but she can be more potent over this longer trip. Kevin Ryan often does well in these types of contests and his charge, One More Bottle, must enter calculations on his racecourse bow.

RIBBLE RADIANT finished to good effect when making a successful debut at Beverley 115 days ago and the form has proved solid, so she's worth a chance to maintain her unbeaten record for all that the absence is a slight concern. Last Applause looks a big threat after a promising start and newcomer One More Bottle is one to note on pedigree.

The returning Beverley scorer RIBBLE RADIANT could prove capable of defying the penalty. Last Applause is next best.

Improvement remains possible and with course form a plus, he's worthy of respect.

Bellarchi

5/1(-25%)

5th (5) Empire Of Light (22/1 +12%)
Empire Of Light

22
22/1(+12%)
(5) Empire Of Light 22/1, Winner at Newmarket in June. Seventh of 10 on nursery debut at Yarmouth (6f, soft, 33/1) 13 days ago. Seems to be going the wrong way and hopes pinned on a first-time visor and/or a step up in trip working the oracle.
6f winner; well beaten on last three starts but first-time visor may help.
LTO Selection:

15:50 Catterick Handicap (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

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

ICE MAX shed his maiden tag over C&D on his penultimate start before being well held in the Flying Scotsman at Doncaster last month, but this is a much easier assignment and he can defy an opening mark of 80. Noo Point filled the runner-up spot in a novice event at Epsom last time and has to be considered on his nursery bow, while Empire Of Light could improve for the application of a visor for the first time.

Karl Burke is having an outstanding season with his juveniles and ICE MAX is fancied to get back to winning ways on handicap debut having been found out in listed company at Doncaster last month. Bellarchi is another taking a drop in grade so she could well emerge as the main danger, ahead of Charged Up.

The suggestion is ICE MAX (nap), who returns to the scene of his win and drops back to realistic company. He could have more to come.

Dual C&D winner (good to firm); sits on last winning mark, so she'd have to merit respect..

No joy in three starts for this trainer and beaten 28l at Hamilton latest; handicap debut..
LTO Selection:

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

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

YASMIN FROM YORK had Tarbat Ness (fourth) over a length behind when third over 2m1f at Pontefract last month and the seven-year-old has been left on the same rating. She has proven to be more than capable at this level and could be the one to beat today. The is in solid form at present and he should go well once again, while Milltown Lily makes the most appeal of the remainder after her second at Carlisle and she goes off the same mark.

YASMIN FROM YORK scored twice over C&D last year and having dropped to her last winning mark, she gets the vote to regain the winning thread with the booking of Hollie Doyle catching the eye. The main danger could emerge from Easter Icon, who needs to leave a rare below-par effort behind at Ffos Las last month, with Toscan Genius and A Day To Dream rounding off the shortlist.

A chance is taken that easy ground won't prove a barrier to success to the Catterick specialist YASMIN FROM YORK.

Best effort this season was back at Hamiton in August but otherwise hard to fancy..

(8) Minack 18/1, 50/1 and blinkered for 1st time, respectable eighth of 14 in handicap at Leicester (7f, good) 9 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.
Poor form except her second start, when showing minor promise at Yarmouth; more needed..
LTO Selection:

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

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

Compensation could await WADE'S MAGIC, who has been knocking on the door over C&D of late. Tim Easterby's gelding races off the same mark as his recent second here and holds the most compelling claims. Autumn Flight posted one of his better efforts when finishing a close-up third at Pontefract last week and is feared most on this quick turnaround off a 2lb lower rating. White Umbrella has been in fair form on the all-weather and completes the shortlist.

GARIFULLINA has few miles on the clock and caught the eye back from a 4-month break at Redcar last month. She makes fair appeal. Autumn Flight and Wade's Magic can also make their presence felt.

A weak contest where the suggestion is WADE'S MAGIC, who has conditions to suit, a handy draw and goes well at this track.

LTO Selection:

17:20 Catterick Handicap (Class 5) 12f Race Class Flow

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

TARRAFF won with plenty to spare when gaining a breakthrough success on her handicap debut at Leicester last month and the three-year-old filly is fancied to shrug off a 6lb rise in the ratings to strike again. Valley Of Flowers travelled with more verve on her recent Ayr triumph and isn't taken lightly off 5lb higher in this contest, while Richard P Smith could unlock some untapped potential now upped to 1m4f and the son of Belardo is another to consider.

This is tougher than the race VALLEY OF FLOWERS won at Ayr but she has a host of good C&D efforts to her name and is chanced to go in again raised 5 lb. Don't Look Back, Ring of Beara and Richard P Smith are all dangers.

The filly TARRAFF has the potential to do better and, with the stable's runners in good form, she can back up her Leicester success.

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.
