WILLIAM BUICK is giving his satnav a little more work to do since taking the job with Godolphin as retained jockey to Charlie Appleby.

Having recently ridden a double at Beverley, a course where he has ridden less than ten times in the last five years, Buick, formerly number one to John Gosden, is also an infrequent visitor to Redcar.

Indeed, he rode his first winner for five years from his only mount at the seaside course earlier this month, Buick is back again today and looks nailed on to make it two Redcar wins on Bow And Arrow in the Redcar Racecourse Conference & Wedding Venue Handicap.

Buick was in the saddle when Bow And Arrow, a previous Lingfield winner, trotted-up by 13 lengths at Beverley last week.

Appleby will be fearful of a steep rise in the handicap for Bow And Arrow, which is why he is bringing him out quickly under a penalty today. An extra 6lb should not inconvenience him and it will be surprising if he is thwarted.

Channel 4 pundit Jim McGrath will be hoping that Loom Of Life can provide him with a winner in the racinguk.com/anywhere: 3 Devices, 1 Price Handicap.

A good effort is expected from the Richard Fahey-trained gelding, but it may prove that he has to play a supporting role to Sir Lancelott, a decisive winner at Newcastle on his latest outing.

Rockfield Last is dropped into the lowest grade after performing creditably on her debut at Beverley and should prove up to the task in the Enjoy Hospitality At Redcar Racecourse Selling Stakes.

Giles Bravery’s juvenile finished fourth in an auction maiden at Beverley which was a respectable first effort. She is awarded the nap vote.

The 11-year-old Haajes is a stalwart at Paul Midgley’s North Yorkshire yard and the old-timer is fancied to show his junior rivals a clean pair of heels in the Win a VIP Day @ redcarracing.co.uk Claiming Stakes.

Haajes won a seller on this course on his seasonal debut earlier this month under Graham Lee, who takes the mount again as the popular veteran bids to gain his 16th career success.

He will be afforded a deserved round of applause if he can take care of Risk ‘N’ Reward and New Leyf.

At Sedgefield, Mick Easterby has good prospects of landing the Alan Cassell Retirement Handicap Chase.

The Sheriff Hutton trainer has his horses in good nick and Classinaglass, winner of seven of his 11 starts in point-to-points, gained his second chasing success under Rules at Catterick on his latest start.

There could be more to come and Harry Bannister’s mount is primed to run a big race.

Gin Cobbler has solid claims in the Wills Property Services Handicap Chase.

The nine-year-old, trained by Victor Thompson, has made good progress over fences this year but blotted his copybook when unseating his rider when cruising along at the head of affairs at Hexham last time.

He can make amends this afternoon and also take his revenge on Hotgrove Boy, who beat him here last month, but only after Gin Cobbler had blundered his chance away at the final fence.

Bertie Moon should take all the beating in the Nortonthorpe Industrial Estate Handicap Hurdle.

Trained by Keith Dalgleish, who is better known as a Flat trainer, but who has enjoyed a useful run with his jumpers in the last six months, Bertie Moon chased home Royal Boru at Perth recently.

Redcar today: 1.55 Pushingmypatience, 2.25 Rockfield Last (NAP), 2.55 Denton Dawn, 3.25 Bow And Arrow, 3.55 Sir Lancelott, 4.30 Haajes, 5.00 Star Ascending.

Sedgefield today: 1.45 Larmor, 2.15 Bertie Moon, 2.45 Classinaglass, 3.15 Gin Cobbler, 3.45 Willie Hall, 4.20 Beau Dandy, 4.55 John Dory.

Today’s other meetings: Lingfield, Newton Abbot and Towcester.
