Catterick, Chepstow and Southwell

There is flat racin this afteroon at Cherpstow and Southwell (all-weathet) and this evening at Catterick. At Chepstow the class 4 mile handicap for 3yo´s at 17.10 CET is the best race and looks very open. Mega Watt (Willie Jarvis/ Alan Munro), Just Rob (Reg Hollinshead/ Ted Durcan) and Sahaadi (Richard Hannon/ Richard Hughes) are three for the short list here. At Southell, Aan Swinbank´s Goodbye, narrowly beaten twice n the last few days, can get her head in frontz in the fillies´ mile handicap at 16.30, whilwe the three top-weights Bentley Brook (Paul Blockley/ SophiDoyle), Srikuntuan (Paul Cole/ Richard Quinn) and The King and I (Emma Lavelle/ Neil Callan) can dominate the 11 furlomngs handicap half an hour later. Best bet on the card is Yakimov (Ollie Pears/ Jamie Moriarty), who can complete a five-timer (all here) in the mile claimer at 16.00. Another likelx vclaimer winner is Court of Appeal (Brian Ellison/ Tom Eaves) in the 19.35 at Catterick. He won the same race last year, and scored last time out in a modest event at Mussellburgh. Ellison and Eaves can go on to complete a double with Daaweitza in the 7 furlongs handicap at 20.05.
