Handicappers' nap

True Romance (3.05 Catterick)

In great form this summer following up two decent runs over hurdles with a sound win at Musselburgh last time. The 4lb rise could well underestimate him.

Eyecatcher

Alotabottle (5.45 Catterick)

Won with a bit in hand at Epsom last week and there could be more to come from this lightly-raced gelding.

Irish angle

Mr Smith (6.40 Roscommon)

A course winner here in 2016, this eight-year-old remains lightly raced and largely unexposed. On his first hurdle start since August 2016 he bolted up at Galway on Sunday and will be hard to stop here under a 5lb penalty.
Richard Forristal

Speed figures

Gregorian Girl (8.30 Nottingham)

Has finished runner-up twice recently, but earned a personal best four days ago which augurs well for her prospects of going one better.
Dave Edwards

Spotlight nap

Strict Tempo (2.45 Newbury)

Off the mark at Nottingham a year ago and then went close in a decent fillies' nursery at Doncaster and came back to form when second at Salisbury ten days ago. She pulled nine lengths clear of the third that day and a 2lb rise looks lenient.

Dark horse

Kuwait Shield (2.00 Catterick)

Promising performances in his two starts to date including last time over 6f at Doncaster. A step up to 7f could spark improvement.
Rob Sutton

Must-have stat of the day

Mr Strutter has figures of 1131 when running in handicaps over 6-7f at Catterick and a £1 investment on the chestnut would have yielded £15.75. The five-year-old runs in the 7f handicap at 5.10.
