UK Horse Racing Tips: Catterick

Given she has already handled some cut in the ground, and fared well with the draw, PETRA CELERA has a lot in her favour and her claims are hard to ignore. She arrives on the back of a fine effort when a close third at Ayr and another step forward could see her strike. Smooth Silesie has also shown plenty and is feared most, with Newmarket raider Mini Magna another name to note.
Prediction : 1st Petra Celera 2nd Smooth Silesie 3rd Mini Magna

With the form in the book not looking anything special, BORDERLINE BOSS is presented with a good opportunity to make a big impact on his racecourse debut. The Kevin Ryan-trained youngster is a half-brother to high-class sprinter Bielsa, who has done so well for the same yard over the years. Nelson Rose arguably sets the standard from those with previous experience and, as a potential pace angle, can provide the selection with something to aim at, with Making Dreams and Likleman others to consider.
Prediction : 1st Borderline Boss 2nd Nelson Rose 3rd Making Dreams

Several old rivals and course specialists face-off again and, while the likes of Obee Jo, Liberty Breeze and Mutanaaseq are all high on the shortlist, the relatively unexposed STAR SOUND is preferred. Kevin Ryan's three-year-old, who has a live chance at the weights due to her age allowance, is 1lb lower than when a creditable fifth over C&D two weeks ago and could represent some value.
Prediction : 1st Star Sound 2nd Obee Jo 3rd Liberty Breeze

Feud is likely to prove popular amongst punters following his recent Haydock success but, though he merits respect raised 3lb in the handicap, a chance is taken on VALLAMOREY. Chris Fairhurst's mare has been below par recently, but she romped home on her sole soft-ground start and a return to similar conditions might be vital to her chances today. Having hit the woodwork in a 0-90 handicap last time, Hope You Can Run should be involved down in class, while Genesius heads the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Vallamorey 2nd Feud 3rd Hope You Can Run

A winner on two of his last three starts, the in-form SPANISH HUSTLE can shrug off a 5lb penalty and record another success. Jamil, who struck over C&D in May from a 3lb lower mark, appeals as the most likely threat to Jim Goldie's gelding. Valley Of Flowers remains in good form and must hold every chance in the capable hands of Paul Mulrennan.
Prediction : 1st Spanish Hustle 2nd Jamil 3rd Valley Of Flowers

QUERCUS recorded a fourth course and distance success when winning here a week ago and Ann Duffield's charge appeals as the one to beat under a penalty. It would be no surprise were John Kirkup to play a leading role following a series of good runs in defeat, while others to note include Wade's Magic and Ginato, who is now 13lb lower than when last winning.
Prediction : 1st Quercus 2nd John Kirkup 3rd Wades Magic
