Monday Racing: Four runners at Catterick



Monday Racing: Four runners at Catterick


Posted: 09.58 • 16 Aug 2026 • News


We head to Catterick on Monday with four runners, as Billy and Joanna take the rides.

The Constant Security Services Novice Stakes has attracted just six runners, and we send out Top Lad (ridden by Billy Garritty) and Star Noir (Joanna Mason).

Both of our horses have been running in handicaps and, still winless, they revert to a novice race.

Star Noir and Top Lad are both rated 62, and they tackle a tricky race which includes two debutants along with promising fillies Night Shining and Preferred.

Night Shining has a rating of 70, and receives a five pound filly's allowance, so looked very well in at the weights. She is the likely race favourite and could be a short price.

Preferred makes a return to the track after a 206 day absence having finished third at Catterick late time.
