Redrosezorro to make his mark at Catterick
REDROSEZORRO looks up to defying a 5lb penalty at Catterick judged on his recent victory at the North Yorkshire track.
Eric Alston’s six-year-old ended a run of six efforts in the first four without success after returning from a 264-day break in June with an emphatic victory over this seven furlongs.
The Foxwedge gelding set sail for home fully four furlongs out and kept on strongly to justify favouritism. A repeat of that performance in the Tunstall Handicap should be more than enough to see him come out on top again.
Paul Mulrennan has been booked by David Brown for Northern Charm in the Bellerby Handicap. The three-year-old is making his handicap debut after three satisfactory runs to date.
Two of them came at Catterick, so he will be returning to a familiar venue, and he was third in both of them so he clearly handles the track.
Mulrennan is arguably enjoying the best spell of his career, with 21 winners in July and another fruitful month ongoing in August.
He is one of the go-to men up north — and when Brown books him, he usually means business, with a strike-rate approaching 40 per cent.
Iain Jardine’s Clearance is a stayer on the up and can defy another rise in the weights in the Whitwell Handicap.
Second on his seasonal return at Beverley, he has since won at Musselburgh and then gone in again off an 8lb higher mark at Ripon in a decent contest. BANGOR: 12.00 Timoshenko, 12.30
