Catterick Bridge Race 2 - Berber Leather Mdn Stakes (Gbb Race)
ROYALE UNION (7) Close up last start at Ripon and putting a tidy record together. Producing consistent results this campaign and form has been improving over recent runs. Strongly consider. LADY GORMIRE (5) Looked flat when 5th last run at Epsom. Likely to bounce back and gets some weight relief. Should jump out and bowl along. Solid claims. MOONLIGHT MELODY (6) Finished 4th last start at Chester. Can make a comeback. Can get the job done. SOCA STAR (8) Backing up quickly for this race. Came in 5th last start at Wolverhampton. Giving another go here and facing a weaker grade. Likely to be well placed early. Among better hopes.

Started $34.00 and below par when 7th last time at Redcar but fitter for debut run. Others make far more appeal.

First up today. Started $67.00 and disappointing effort when 12th last run at Southwell but gets a favourable draw. Gets back and needs luck. Can't recommend.

Average effort when 5th last run at Epsom. Likely to bounce back and goes down in weight. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Racing consistently this preparation. Attracts support.

Racing on a quick back up. Finished 5th last start at Wolverhampton. Giving another go here and matched against lesser competition. Expecting to settle positively. Nice value bet.
