UK Horse Racing Tips: Catterick

TOMMYTWOHOOTS went close to gaining his first career success on turf when beaten a short head over C&D at the start of the month, having won the race on his side of the track, and it would be no surprise were he to go one better. Object has some decent form with cut in the ground and is a threat along with Grandad Bob, who has gone well fresh in the past.
Prediction : 1st Tommytwohoots 2nd Object 3rd Grandad Bob

NORTHERNER made a promising start to her career when runner-up at Wetherby in June last year and the daughter of Profitable, who raced on much faster ground on that occasion, is unlikely to be inconvenienced by conditions. Moral Standards (second) and Obligatory (third) both outran their odds in a Pontefract novice earlier in the month and the pair are expected to be in the mix too.
Prediction : 1st Northerner 2nd Moral Standards 3rd Obligatory

VINCE L'AMOUR benefited a lot from his return over C&D when running out a hugely impressive winner at Ripon last Thursday, and connections take the option of running under a 6lb penalty before the handicapper reassesses. La Boo has performed with promise on several occasions and may have more to offer on her handicap debut, while others for the shortlist include Moyola and Law Of Average.
Prediction : 1st Vince LAmour 2nd La Boo 3rd Moyola

Previous C&D winner SUGARPIEHONEYBUNCH performed well when fourth back over this trip here three weeks ago and looks worth another chance with the likely deep ground in her favour. The Dancing Poet, already a three-time C&D winner, has form that ties in with the selection and cannot be ruled out, while Corsican Caper is also well treated and warrants a betting check.
Prediction : 1st Sugarpiehoneybunch 2nd The Dancing Poet 3rd Corsican Caper

Origintrail is a player in this company and warrants a betting check on her first run of the season, while Tyger Bay is back on turf off a competitive rating and rates a serious contender on these terms. However, LITTLE MUDDY, who runs off 3lb below her last winning mark, created a favourable impression when finishing third on her seasonal debut at Doncaster last month. She has likely benefitted from that run and this could be a good time to catch the eight-year-old.
Prediction : 1st Little Muddy 2nd Tyger Bay 3rd Origintrail

BEAUTY CHOICE had the reopposing Mutanaaseq (third) just over two lengths behind when scoring over C&D last time out, and the seven-year-old can follow up despite being 4lb worse off at the weights with that rival. Winless since August 2022, Buckshaw Village bounced back to form with a strong runner-up effort at Thirsk earlier in the month and is noted along with Wreck It Ryley.
Prediction : 1st Beauty Choice 2nd Buckshaw Village 3rd Mutanaaseq

This can go the way of LOUBIERE, who may have disappointed last time out but is better judged on her penultimate effort when second over 1m at Newcastle. Rebecca Menzies' charge showed promise on the turf last season and this looks like a good opportunity to get off the mark, with recent Chelmsford runner-up Clionia the main danger. Havana Prince and the unexposed handicap debutant Jesmond Dawn cannot be ruled out either.
Prediction : 1st Loubiere 2nd Clionia 3rd Havana Prince
