UK Horse Racing Tips: Catterick

BOLSOVER BILL gained a first success over fences when winning over C&D last month and a 5lb rise in the ratings is unlikely prevent another bold bid. Dylan Kitts takes a handy 10lb off his back and Warren Greatrex's inmate could take some stopping. Trac looks the chief threat after a good win at Wetherby, with Elleon expected to remain competitive down in trip too.
Prediction : 1st Bolsover Bill 2nd Trac 3rd Elleon

DON HOLLOW ran better than the bare form suggests when finishing fourth at Ascot last month and compensation could await the Dan Skelton-trained gelding today, with this extra distance looking ideal. Astromachia didn't enjoy the best of passages at Uttoxeter and could be on the premises once more, while the point-to-point winners Hashtag Boum and Some Scope completing the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Don Hollow 2nd Astromachia 3rd Hashtag Boum

Haas Boy would have made a winning return but for falling at the last hurdle at Ludlow recently and he demands respect with Brian Hughes aboard, but handicap-debutant I AM GONNA BE shades the verdict. This bumper scorer has taken well to hurdles, finishing second at Uttoxeter before winning readily at Newcastle, and an opening mark of 109 might underestimate her ability. Getaway Luv and Happy And Fine add further spice to the race.
Prediction : 1st I Am Gonna Be 2nd Haas Boy 3rd Getaway Luv

EVENT OF SIVOLA was always doing enough when an all-the-way winner over 4m at Hexham last time and, with Jamie Hamilton likely to go forward again and turn this into a stamina test, the gelding can defy a 5lb rise. Course-winner Myburg is lightly-weighted and should make his presence felt, while Bretney and Fiston Du Mou both have a chance on their penultimate efforts.
Prediction : 1st Event Of Sivola 2nd Myburg 3rd Bretney

Denied by a narrow margin on her latest outing over this C&D, a chance can be taken with BLUE HAWAII, who may not be fazed by a 2lb raised mark. It is likely there is more in her locker and she narrowly shades the vote from the unexposed Ring Pretender on both her chasing and handicap bow. Limerick Leader completes the shortlist in a first-time tongue-tie.
Prediction : 1st Blue Hawaii 2nd Ring Pretender 3rd Limerick Leader

It is hard to look past the unexposed BENTS HOLLOW, who bolted up at Musselburgh on her Rules bow last month and she can follow that up today despite having to shoulder a 7lb penalty. Her chief threats come in the form of the grade-dropping Autumn Return, who struggled in Listed company last month, along with the Stuart Coltherd-trained Midnight Shuffle.
Prediction : 1st Bents Hollow 2nd Autumn Return 3rd Midnight Shuffle

Billams Legacy may get involved in the finish if a wind operation since her last appearance brings about any improvement. Turbulent Power showed promise when fourth at Newcastle on her hurdling bow, and she may prove the bigger danger to NOTNOWLINDA. A winner at Warwick in October, the selection failed to see out the two and a half miles at Cheltenham the same month but she drops back in trip here.
Prediction : 1st Notnowlinda 2nd Turbulent Power 3rd Billams Legacy
