Join us in North Yorkshire, England, at CATTERICK RACECOURSE for the grand wrap-up of the 2025 flat season on Tuesday, 28th October. Gates open ahead of a seven-race card from 1:10pm to 4:10pm, bringing together the last hurrah of turf action before the jumps take over. With the air crisp and the fields set, it’s a day that blends farewell to the flat campaign with the promise of tomorrow’s stars stepping up.
Race 1: EBF Restricted Maiden Stakes (Bands C And D With No More Than Three Runs) (GBB Race) (1:10pm, 5f)
We launch the finale with a Class 5 maiden reserved for EBF-qualified runners, giving newcomers a chance to claim a mark. CROWN THE FUTURE, STAR NOIR, TOP LAD and HAVANA SONG may look to settle into stride and learn the ropes, while LUCK MONEY, NORTH WEST GAL and CONTROL ROOM could show the hint of promise that signals a bright future. A gentle beginning to what should be a lively afternoon. Winner’s gain: £4,320
Race 2: Download The Raceday Ready App Nursery Handicap (1:40pm, 5f212y)
The second race steps into handicap territory with a Class 6 event that invites horses still finding their feet. GUNALT WAVELENGTH, TRULY SPECIAL and CONTAINER EXPRESS might take advantage of a lighter mark, and GREY HORIZON, LONG SHOT and QUEENIES PAL could prove that improvement has arrived since their last outing. These are often races where heart meets form. Winner’s gain: £4,004
Race 3: Handicap (GBBPlus Race) (2:10pm, 1m4f13y)
In this Class 4 contest with GBBPlus eligibility, the pace and conditions will matter. TWO BROTHERS, NACHTGEIST and ARRANGE may come in riding a trend of improvement, while THREE DONS, NIGHTSINWHITESATIN and STITCHING WHEEL could be the unsung contender if they’ve found that extra bit of zip. A real mid-card test of progress and potential. Winner’s gain: £5,757
Race 4: Every Race Live On Racing TV Handicap (2:40pm, 7f6y))
We dip back to Class 5 for this next handicap, where rising runners and seasoned types mingle. AHAMOMENT, VINCE LE PRINCE and WHO WANTS ME may set the standard given recent activity, and ROUNDHAY PARK, EVOCATIVE SPARK and DESERT DREAM could catch the eye if the race unfolds for a closer. Strategy and timing could dictate the outcome. Winner’s gain: £4,187
Race 5: racingtv.com Handicap (3:10pm, 1m7f189y)
Returning to Class 6, this race offers a more open field and a chance for improvement to shine through. INSPIRE HOPE, BOLLIN NEIL and TARBAT NESS might benefit from a recent prep run, while COLD HENRY, SOMEBODYCOMEGETHER and STRETCH could exploit a drop in grade or weight. A race that may hold value for those tracking emerging form. Winner’s gain: £4,004
Race 6: catterickbridge.co.uk Handicap (3:40pm, 5f212y)
Back into Class 4 territory, the competition steps up again. FISCAL POLICY, ANOTHER INVESTMENT and THE GOOD BISCUIT may arrive with good form and look to dominate, and VALENTINE CATCHER, MONSIEUR KODI and KEEP WARM might surprise if they’ve been quietly improving. A neat test of where some of these connections stand as the season winds down. Winner’s gain: £5,234
Race 7: Jump Season Starts 21st November Handicap (4:10pm, 5f212y)
To close the flat season, a final Class 6 handicap brings one last opportunity for a memorable finish. CROCODILE POWER, EMERALD ARMY and CANARIA QUEEN could strike if their training has paid off, while CHIEF OF STATE, CATHERINE CHROI and NINETY NINE might flourish if they’ve been aimed at this finale. A fitting farewell to the flat campaign. Winner’s gain: £4,004
