Buccaneers Vault can have it all locked up

TIPS: Hannon’s juvenile should be good enough to dominate on Catterick return

- THE FERRET

BUCCANEERS VAULT can shrug aside a 6lb penalty to land the spoils in the Racing UK Extra On racinguk.com Handicap at Catterick.

Paul Midgley’s six-year-old was much more value for his length and a quarter success over Russian Realm at Newcastle would suggest as he had to overcome a tardy start and being stopped briefly when making his challenge over a furlong out.

However, he showed a neat turn of foot to win and if he is the same form as that, he will be hard to beat.

DANCE KING can make the right moves to waltz to victory in the Millbry Hill Handicap. The Tim Easterbytr­ained eight-year-old has finished fourth in hot handicaps at York and Pontefract on his last two starts and this looks less competitiv­e.

Richard Whitaker’s DAWN BREAKING got stuck in the mud at Ayr on her latest start and is worth another chance on better ground in the Jump Season Starts 23rd November Handicap.

TEA TIME FRED is taken to Chepstow by trainer Sue Gardner in the hope of a change of luck after going close in his last four starts, all over an extended three and a quarter miles at Newton Abbot. The nine-year-old gelding might also be suited by the drop in trip in the myracing.com Free Tip Every Day ‘Confined’ Handicap Hurdle.

SELECTIONS CATTERICK: 12.25 Leodis Dream, 12.55 Rockley Point, 1.25 Dance King, 2.00 Proud Archi, 2.30 Donnachies Girl, 3.05 BUCCANEERS VAULT (NAP), 3.35 Dawn Breaking, 4.10 Cape Hill Cotter.

CHEPSTOW: 1.10 Chilli Romance, 1.45 Potters Approach, 2.20 Getaway Trump, 2.50 Tea Time Fred, 3.25 Merry Milan, 4.00 Heluvagood, 4.30 Doctor Dex.

DOUBLE: Buccaneers Vault and

Dance King.
