18:22 – British EBF Maiden Stakes (GBB Race)
Race Details: 7f | Class 3 | Going: 7.9) (rail movements (Good, good to soft in places (goingstick) | | flat
This may only be a five-runner maiden, but it doesn’t look a weak one for the grade. Wilbur brings the best piece of achieved form after a promising debut fourth and sets a fair standard on the figures, while Collateral Damage is the obvious unknown quantity from a yard that knows exactly what is required with juveniles. Sou’wester and Leave The Bag In have both shown a bit in defeat without screaming immediate winners, and Rogue Passion is another interesting debutant in a race where the market should prove informative. Over 7f at Catterick, professionalism matters, and in a small field tactical speed could count for plenty. It looks a race likely decided by whether one of the newcomers is above average, but the safest view is to side with the one who has already shown proper ability.
Top Selections
1. Wilbur – 11/8 with Bet365
Jockey: Kaiya Fraser | Trainer: Harry Eustace | Form: 4 | Rating: 82 | Topspeed: 75
Wilbur makes the most appeal because he has already put up the best number in the field and did enough on debut to suggest a maiden of this nature is well within range. An opening mark of 82 and a Topspeed of 75 give him a clear edge on what has been achieved so far, and that debut fourth reads perfectly well in the context of this small race. Harry Eustace’s juveniles often know their job and, with that initial experience under his belt, he should be sharper for this test. At 11/8 with Bet365, he is not exactly hiding from the market, but he still looks the percentage call against rivals who either need to improve notably or prove themselves first time out. Bet: WIN
Betting Strategy
Keep it simple in a race this small: Wilbur is the win bet and the only sensible play. Each-way betting makes little appeal with just five runners. Collateral Damage is the obvious danger if the Burke yard has him ready to go, while Rogue Passion is the other one to note if the market speaks in his favour.

18:52 – Bowel Cancer Screening Programme Saves Lives Novice Stakes (GBB Race)
Race Details: 5f | Class 4 | Going: 7.9) (rail movements (Good, good to soft in places (goingstick) | | flat
This looks a fairly useful little novice for Catterick rather than a weak summer throw-in. Lady Gormire sets the standard on the figures after a solid return to finish second and her 88 rating gives her plenty of substance in a race where not many arrive with proven speed. Nursia is the obvious danger after getting off the mark last time and Kevin Ryan’s filly still looks open to progress over this sharp trip. Two Commanders also enters the reckoning on a promising debut third, while Korbut has a bit more experience than some and is weighted to be involved. The rest need to improve a fair chunk, so this should revolve around the four towards the head of the market, with track position and early speed likely to be decisive over Catterick’s bare 5f.
Top Selections
1. Lady Gormire – 9/4 with Bet365
Jockey: Sean Kirrane | Trainer: Michael Dods | Form: 28-2 | Rating: 88 | Topspeed: 57
Lady Gormire is the one with the clearest body of form and, in a race where a few still have something to prove, that counts for plenty. She signed off at two with a second and returned with another runner-up effort, which suggests she has trained on and remains capable of winning a novice of this nature. The standout rating of 88 and Topspeed figure of 57 put her firmly on top of the known numbers, and a handy draw in stall 3 should help Sean Kirrane keep tabs on the pace. At 9/4 she is not a giveaway, but she is the solid option and very much the one to beat. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Two Commanders – 5/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Connor Beasley | Trainer: Edward Bethell | Form: 3 | Rating: 73 | Topspeed: 15
Two Commanders makes appeal as the each-way play because his debut third hinted at more to come and Edward Bethell’s runners usually know their job second time around. He did enough on that first start to suggest a sharp 5f around here could suit, and the inside-leaning draw in stall 2 is another plus if Connor Beasley can get him organised early. He does have a bit to find with the principals on bare ratings, but novices like this can turn quickly once experience kicks in. Available at 5/1, he looks the value alternative to the obvious pair at the top of the market and could easily hit the frame.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Lady Gormire is the straightforward win play because she brings the strongest established form and sets the bar on ratings. For an each-way punt, Two Commanders makes more appeal than the similarly priced Korbut, simply because there should be more improvement to come after one run. Nursia is the main danger after that recent win and is respected, but at the prices the value angle lies with the Bethell runner for a place at least.

19:22 – racingtv.com/freetrial Handicap
Race Details: 5f | Class 6 | Going: 7.9) (rail movements (Good, good to soft in places (goingstick) | | flat
This looks a fairly ordinary three-year-old sprint on paper, but it’s not short on angles. Powernap brings the most persuasive recent handicap form after a pair of seconds and sets the standard, while Brain Freeze arrives off a win and is drawn to attack from stall 1. Saxon Grace has been knocking on the door without quite getting the job done, and Havin A Flyer is interesting on figures having posted the best topspeed in the field. The rest need a bit more faith, though Gwen Tennyson did step forward last time. It’s not a deep race and that usually makes the market leaders dangerous, but in a sprint around Catterick, tactical position and a clean break will count for plenty.
Top Selections
1. Powernap – 2/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Clifford Lee | Trainer: Jessica Bedi | Form: 4-0522 | Rating: 69 | Topspeed: 64
Powernap is the percentage call. She’s been edging towards a win in handicaps, with those last two runner-up efforts suggesting this mark of 69 is workable rather than punitive. The profile is solid for a race of this nature: she’s holding her form, she has a handy draw in 3, and she doesn’t need to improve dramatically to take this. Clifford Lee is a positive booking in these sharp sprints where getting organised quickly matters, and at 2/1 she’s short enough but still fair in a field lacking much depth. She looks the one they all have to beat if breaking on terms.
Bet: WIN
2. Havin A Flyer – 7/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Kaiya Fraser | Trainer: Rebecca Menzies | Form: 348-84 | Rating: 65 | Topspeed: 74
Havin A Flyer is the one at a price who makes some each-way appeal. The recent form figures don’t scream certainty, but there was enough in that latest fourth to think she can be involved in a weak Class 6, and her topspeed figure of 74 stands out in this line-up. That suggests there is more ability here than her bare record implies. Drawn 7, she may need things to fall right early, but if Kaiya Fraser can get her into a decent rhythm she has the pace to travel well in this company. Available at 7/1, she looks the value alternative to the favourite.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Keep it simple: Powernap is the win bet because she has the strongest and most reliable handicap form in the race. For an each-way play, Havin A Flyer makes most appeal at the prices given her speed figure and scope to do better in this grade. The obvious dangers are Brain Freeze from stall 1 and the consistent Saxon Grace.

Race Details: 5f | Class 5 | Going: 7.9) (rail movements (Good, good to soft in places (goingstick) | | flat
This is a compact little sprint but not a weak one, with several hardened 5f operators clustered tightly on ratings. Winchurch heads the market and is easy enough to see why after a solid recent spell, but he is not miles clear in a race where track position and early pace will matter plenty. Le Beau Garcon shaped nicely on his return and looks set to come on for it, while Isle Of Lismore has the raw speed figures to get heavily involved if building on his own comeback. Equity Law is another with ability, though recent efforts leave a bit to be desired. In truth, this feels more competitive than a seven-runner Class 5 might suggest, and there should be no hiding place over this sharp Catterick five.
Top Selections
1. Le Beau Garcon – 5/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Joanna Mason | Trainer: Michael & David Easterby | Form: 6020-4 | Rating: 85 | Topspeed: 71
Le Beau Garcon looks the value play and he makes plenty of appeal off the back of that seasonal reappearance fourth. He had gone into the winter on a workable mark and returned with enough encouragement to suggest he retains plenty of dash for this level. An official mark of 85 leaves him right in the mix, and this intermediate draw should allow Joanna Mason to ride him positively without being forced into anything messy. In a race where the favourite is respected rather than feared, available at 5/1 feels a fair price about one who should strip fitter and holds strong claims. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Isle Of Lismore – 6/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Connor Beasley | Trainer: Robert Cowell | Form: 4883-5 | Rating: 86 | Topspeed: 79
If you want an each-way punt in a race lacking much between the principals, Isle Of Lismore is the one. He is an eight-year-old now, so nobody is pretending he is progressive, but he still posted the best Topspeed figure in the field and his comeback fifth was not a bad effort in the circumstances. Robert Cowell’s sprinters are often worth a second look once they have a recent run behind them, and Connor Beasley is a positive booking around here. Off 86 he is hardly thrown in, yet 6/1 gives enough wriggle room for a horse who can travel strongly and nick a place at worst. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Le Beau Garcon is the main play here, with his reappearance run hinting that he is ready to strike and his price just edging him ahead of the favourite. Isle Of Lismore is the sensible each-way alternative in a seven-runner race with three places on offer. Winchurch is the obvious danger, while Equity Law has enough ability to trouble them if bouncing back.

20:23 – Try Racing TV For Free Now Handicap (GBBPlus Race)
Race Details: 1m 5f | Class 4 | Going: 7.9) (rail movements (Good, good to soft in places (goingstick) | | flat
This looks a tight little staying handicap rather than a deep one, and the market has understandably latched on to the two unexposed 4yos, Lightning Tiger and Sixpack. They set the standard on recent profile and ratings, with both arriving in decent nick and carrying handy weights. Baileys Khelstar is the solid older-yardstick type after a couple of good efforts, while the likes of Military Air and Gibside need a revival. Robert Johnson is the lurking wildcard after an absence, but there’s an obvious fitness question. In a six-runner race where tactics could be crucial, I’d expect it to be decided by who sees out this 1m5f best rather than any turn of foot, and that just gives the edge to the progressive pair at the head of the betting.
Top Selections
1. Lightning Tiger – 6/4 with Bet365
Jockey: Callum Rodriguez | Trainer: Charlie Fellowes | Form: 514-44 | Rating: 96 | Topspeed: 53
He’s the one I’d want on side. Lightning Tiger has the best rating in the field, gets in here with just 126, and his two runs this season suggest he’s holding his form perfectly well without quite getting the job done. Those back-to-back fourths don’t leap off the page, but they came in races that probably took a bit more winning than this. As a 4yo, there’s still a fair chance he has more to offer over this sort of staying trip, and Charlie Fellowes doesn’t need many to send out one ready for a race like this. At 6/4 with Bet365, he’s short enough, but still the percentage call.
Bet: WIN
2. Baileys Khelstar – 11/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Jason Hart | Trainer: Charlie Johnston | Form: 7/0242 | Rating: 92 | Topspeed: 84
If you want something at a more workable price, Baileys Khelstar makes plenty of appeal. His recent figures are solid, and that latest second says he’s knocking hard at the door in this grade. The standout number in the field is his Topspeed mark of 84, which hints that he retains enough ability to make a real race of this if the gallop is honest. Jason Hart is a positive booking for a horse who should travel well and keep finding, and Charlie Johnston’s runners are rarely short of resolution over these middle distances. Available at 11/2 with Bet365, he looks the sensible each-way play in a race lacking depth beyond the front few.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Lightning Tiger is the win bet as the most likely winner on profile, rating and scope for a bit more improvement at this trip. For an each-way punt, Baileys Khelstar looks the value given how consistently he’s been running. Sixpack is the obvious danger and could easily make this a proper scrap if building on his recent form.

20:59 – Racing Again 22nd June Handicap
Race Details: 7f | Class 5 | Going: 7.9) (rail movements (Good, good to soft in places (goingstick) | | flat
This looks a proper end-of-card handicap rather than a weak throwaway, with several arriving in fair nick and not much separating the principals on ratings. Vince Le Prince sets the standard on recent figures and has been knocking on the door for a while, while Tattie Bogle has been holding his form well in similar company and rarely runs a bad race. Habrdi is another who comes here on the back of solid efforts and has the sort of profile to get involved again, while Uppercase is unexposed enough to think there may still be a bit more to come. It is competitive rather than impossible, but you can make a strong case that proven current form over this sort of trip will decide it more than hidden handicapping tricks.
Top Selections
1. Vince Le Prince – 5/2 with Bet365
Jockey: David Allan | Trainer: Tim Easterby | Form: 2-2275 | Rating: 83 | Topspeed: 70
He is becoming expensive to follow, but this does look a very fair opening. Those three consecutive runner-up efforts earlier in the year read well in the context of a Catterick Class 5 and his 83 mark still makes him the one they all have to beat. The latest fifth was a shade underwhelming, but it was not a total collapse and his overall consistency before that gives him plenty of forgiveness. David Allan is a good booking for this sharp track and, at 5/2, he is hard to oppose if returning to the level of those near-misses. Bet type: WIN.
Bet: WIN
2. Habrdi – 11/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Joanna Mason | Trainer: Ruth Carr | Form: 148623 | Rating: 81 | Topspeed: 67
Habrdi makes plenty of each-way appeal because he is running often enough to know exactly where he stands and that level is good enough to make the frame again. His recent 6-2-3 sequence shows a horse holding form, and off 81 he is not obviously badly treated in a race where several of these are exposed. The low draw in 2 should help around here if Joanna Mason can secure a handy position, and Ruth Carr’s runners are often seen to good effect in these northern handicaps. At 11/2, he looks the value alternative to the favourite and a sensible each-way punt. Bet type: EACH-WAY.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Keep it straightforward: Vince Le Prince is the win play because his form gives him the strongest claims in the field if bouncing back from one lesser run. Habrdi is the each-way option, drawn to get involved and arriving in better day-to-day form than plenty of these. Tattie Bogle and Uppercase are the main dangers if the market leaders underperform.
