Catterick Bridge Race 4 - Visit Racingtv.com Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
TAWASOL (7) went desperately close when favourite in latest at Wolverhampton. Expected to have taken a step forward and sure to be primed. MONSIEUR FUDGE (1) is another returning from a lengthy absence. Did well first up previously so warrants serious consideration. STAY IN THE GAME (2) hasn't been seen since finishing seventh at Beverley over 2000m. Place claims at best. GLORIOUSLY SASSY (6) was only beaten 4L on debut. Rates a likely chance.

Is first-up after a break of six months and has been in the money when fresh before. Finished off last campaign eighth of 11 at Wolverhampton October 19 over 1900m, 21 len behind Beylerbeyi with 61.5kg at $9. Previously first up; second of 7 at Salisbury August 30 over 1600m, 2.25 len behind Shamran with 59kg at $2.50. Looks very hard to beat.
