Catterick 3:15 Result

Small, competitive 5-runner sprint handicap but Run This Way's recent form stands out - the "-71143" figures show a recent win last time out and consistent placing before that (7-1-1-4-3), indicating she's arrived at a competitive mark and is in career-best form. Top-weight at 135lbs reflects that she's rated highest (OR 58) on official figures, but that's earned through recent solid performances rather than being over-rated. She has proven course/distance form and blinkers already fitted suggest the yard has found the right key. Draw 3 is workable at Catterick over 6f. Miss Willows won recently too but her form line is patchier with a couple of poor efforts in between (1-0028). Barmyblade is interesting on a quick alternate class win but stepping up in grade slightly and is unexposed at this trip for the yard - Easterby is a strong stable but the gelding's finishing 147 sequence shows one bad run mixed in. Powernap and Battenburg Belle both looks up against it on official ratings and are more speculative types with fillier form figures showing inconsistency. Overall Run This Way's sustained upward trajectory, top-rated form and course experience make her the most solid, best-supported type in a moderate contest, and she looks value at what should be a reasonably short price given she is clearly the one in form.
