A 9 runner race where Signore Piccolo could lead if nothing else wanted to but this distance can be too far for it so it would try to set a slowish pace but I think Aleef will be the one to make sure there is a good early pace but this one wouldn't want the going to be too fast, Tukhoom a hold up type is my 4th top rated, Zumurud sits in 3rd spot and it likes to track the leaders, I've got 1lb between my top 2 ratings so will be back both MEDICINE JACK 7/2 in 2nd top spot and ROUND THE ISLAND 4/1 who is in top spot.
Round The Island 11/2 2nd -1pt
Medicine Jack 7/2 3rd -1pt
Total -2pts
CATTERICK 5.05
This isn't a great apprentice jockeys race, I can see 3 who might set the pace so it should be a true run affair, I had to go back to 2019 for Red Stripes best turf time but hasn't shown much in its latest runs, if HARROGATE 2/1 sets the pace and can repeat its best time from last year it could lead all the way but its run this year was way below that level when it finished 2nd but beaten 4 lengths in a relatively slow run race, I have BOUDICA BAY 4/1 just 1lb below top spot and the trainer has a good record at this course with a 25% win ratio, so I will be backing both of them in this race.
Harrogate 2/1 2nd -1pt
Boudica Bay 4/1 4th -1pt

LINGFIELD 6.40
There should be plenty of early pace to this race as all 3 known front runners are in my top four ratings,and times of that top four of the eight runners are a bit higher than the other half, Benefit Street a possible pacesetter comes out 4th top rated and could make the frame Inaam in 3rd top spot is the one that could do best of those coming from off the pace and could even possibly win if they cut each others throats vying for the lead, Alsvinder comes out 2nd best on my figures and is only 2lbs below SWISS PRIDE 5/2 who is my top rated and if getting to the front it could prove hard to catch.

LINGFIELD 7.10
Only 7 runners here but there's 2 natural front runners and another that can front run if needs be, Super Julius a possible pacesetter is my 4th top rated, Saaheq comes out 3rd best and usually runs on at the finish so could be the one to prosper if they do go off too fast, Hey Ho Lets Go usually likes to track the leaders and then stay on at the finish and comes out 2nd best on my figures but I will be siding with BOOM THE GROOM 7/1 who is the one that's very versatile when it comes to racing tactics and compared to last year this is a drop in class and if on its “a” game the price is generous.
Boom The Groom 10/1 2nd -1pt
