Bond City has 'good chance' with going to suit - Oldroyd.

1.55 Punchestown Go Racing In Kildare Hurdle 2m Live on ATR Card page 58 Key stat Ruby Walsh, who rides Psycho, has had 12 winners from his last 38 rides What they say Adrian McGuinness, trainer of Beau Michael "He's been schooled over fences and will probably be going chasing in the near future. This looked a good opportunity to give him another spin over hurdles. He disappointed on the Flat last time, but he scoped wrong afterwards. Whatever infection he had cleared up and he is in good form."

Dessie Hughes, trainer of Deal Done "It's hard to find races for him as he isn't a novice. He's in good form and the ground will suit, but the trip might be against him as he probably needs further." Conor O'Dwyer, trainer of Uncle Tom Cobley "It's a suitable race to start him off in as there aren't many two-mile races around for him. We're hoping he runs well and that he will come on for the run."

Noel Meade, trainer of Rahan De Marcigny "He won a mile-and-a-half bumper and a hurdle race in France before we got him. He's a nice horse and we'll see how he gets on. Hopefully he will run a good race."

Tony Martin, trainer of Psycho "He seems to be in good form. The plan is to go novice chasing with him and this looked a suitable race to start him off for the season. The ground should be fine and he's well in at the weights with most of them bar Beau Michael." Tom Hogan, trainer of Silver Jaro "He got a fright over the big fences at Limerick last time, so we're back over hurdles to try to get his confidence back. He wore blinkers once over hurdles and we're putting them back on to try to brighten him up."

2.50 Southwell-Racecourse.co.uk Conditions Stakes 5f Live on ATR Card page 25 Key stat Ted Durcan has a 30 per cent strike-rate when riding for George Baker and is on Excellerator What they say Linda Jewell, trainer of Rowe Park "He's been running creditably in defeat in some competitive races. Rowe Park has won over course and distance, although that was a few years ago in a much easier race. He's genuine, rarely runs a bad race and we're hoping he can get his nose in front."

Brian Meehan, trainer of Exclamation "He had a busy spring and then had a viral infection, so we gave him the summer off, but he's in grand form now. I think he'll handle the course and the drop to five furlongs should be fine.

David Nicholls, trainer of Strike Up The Band "He ran on the dirt in Dubai and didn't seem to handle it, but this is a different surface. If he goes on it, he should have a good chance."

John Balding, trainer of Turn On The Style "He's been off a little while with a leg problem, but he's fine now and looks in good form. We've put plenty of work into him, the track suits and I'll be very surprised if he doesn't run a big race." George Baker, trainer of Excellerator "She started her career here, this race looked like an obvious target and I'm looking forward to running her. I was very pleased with her run at Newmarket last time when she stayed on late and Ted [Durcan] was keen to ride her again. She is in good form and we are hopeful she can end the season on a positive note."

Alan McCabe, trainer of Loose Caboose "She showed up well last time after a break and is in good order. I just hope this race doesn't come a bit quick for her.

We're there for the prize-money. A few of the others have chinks in their armour and she goes well at the track."

3.00 Catterick TurfTV.co.uk Handicap 7f Live on RUK Card page 34 Key stat Tim Easterby (Malcheek) has a 27 per cent strike-rate with his runners in 3yo+ handicappers at Catterick this season What they say Geoff Oldroyd, trainer of Bond City "He didn't handle the surface at Southwell last time, but he'd run well at York and Ayr before that and I think he's got a good chance in this. He'll like the soft ground and he's in good form."

Tim Easterby, trainer of Malcheek and Favourite Girl "Malcheek is in good form and likes a sharp track. The downside is that the handicapper put him up 10lb for winning at Musselburgh two races ago and hasn't dropped him for getting beaten under a 6lb penalty on his next start. Favourite Girl is also in decent form. She's got a good draw and, being by Refuse To Bend, is worth a try over this distance." Tim Walford, trainer of Turn Me On "He got no run last time out at York, but he's better at Catterick anyway. He's a course-and-distance winner and, although he'd prefer the ground a bit faster, I don't think it will be too bad. He's in tremendous form."

Steve Gollings, trainer of Toto Skyllachy "He ran really well - above expectations - from a bad draw at Kempton last time and he seems in great form. He'll like the ground, the distance is ideal and there's no reason why the track shouldn't suit him. We're hopeful."

Peter Salmon, trainer of Boy Blue "He's run some fantastic races this season, especially at Ayr and Newcastle, and he's in great form. He's won over seven furlongs and on soft ground, so I'm hoping conditions at Catterick will be in his favour."

James Given, trainer of Glenridding "I've been wanting to try him at Catterick and this is the first chance we've had. He's shown he likes left-handed, sharp tracks, like Chester and Thirsk, so I'm hoping this will suit him too. The ground should be fine, if it's not too loose."

Alan Dickman, trainer of Inter Vision "He's not quite as good as he was, but he's been great to me and he's in terrific form. Seven furlongs is his best trip these days and, although he'd really prefer faster ground, I think he'll give a good account of himself."

Alan Berry, trainer of Grissom "He was very unlucky last time, when another horse hit the rail and he went up his tail end, but he stayed on nicely and has come back well. He won't mind the cut in the ground."

Pat Morris, trainer of Conry "He's a course-and-distance winner and he'll love the cut in the ground but, for the fourth race in a row, he's got a terrible draw. I thought he might be the one to beat here, but stall 14 is not where you want to start from."

David Evans, trainer of Memphis Man "The ground wasn't soft enough for him at Brighton last time out but should be more to his liking at Catterick. The trip is perfect and the course shouldn't be a problem. He's in good form and we're hoping for a big run."

David Nicholls, trainer of Cara's Request "We didn't find a reason for his poor run at York but a few of mine were running a bit flat at the time. He seems in good order now and the return to softer ground will be in his favour."

Ronnie Barr, trainer of Sea Salt "He's run some grand races this season and, although he's been on the go a long while, he still seems in good form. He seems to handle Catterick well enough and he's not done badly in getting stall five. I'm hopeful."

Jedd O'Keeffe, trainer of Bid For Gold "Ideally he wants a stiff six furlongs on good ground, so going a sharp seven with cut is a bit of an experiment. He's been running consistently well, though, and seems in great form. The major downside is his draw in stall 15."

Colin Teague, trainer of Guertino "He missed the break last time at York and, over five furlongs, that gives you no chance. Stepping up in trip here should suit him and he'll like the ground. He's nicely drawn in stall six and is in good form, so I'm hoping for a decent run."
