NORTH Yorkshire jockey Tony Culhane, who has been averaging a winner a day for the past fortnight, can maintain his momentum at Catterick tomorrow.

He teams-up with Mark One in thehorsesmouth.co.uk Maiden Stakes and can guide the Barry Hills-trained filly to victory.

Mark One was beaten less than a length into third by the favourite Matlock on her debut at Sandown two weeks ago and might well have prevailed had she not met trouble in running in the closing stages.

Compensation for that luckless first effort awaits Mark One tomorrow when she will be partnered by a jockey in the best form of his life.

Culhane can also land the Wetherby Steeplechases Claiming Stakes on the Mary Reveley trained Sandabar, who will appreciate this drop in class.

Kevin Darley, who was the top jockey at last week's Goodwood meeting, where he rode four winners, is unlikely to leave Catterick empty-handed.

The Sheriff Hutton rider teams up with Rooftop Protest in the Doncaster Selling Stakes. This Mary Reveley-trained three-year-old, while not one to trust implicitly, will surely be hard to beat in this modest event.

Darley can also clinch the 'Redcar' Handicap on Redouble, sent north from Epsom on his most recent outing. An overdue first victory awaits Redouble tomorrow.

Noble Patriot has struck form with a vengeance in recent weeks and the Reg Hollinshead-trained five-year-old can complete a hat trick of wins in thehorsesmouth.co.uk Handicap.

At Bath, Acorn Catcher is napped to win the opening race, the Francasal Two Year Old Selling Stakes.

Bryn Palling's youngster has given her connections no end of problems with her aversion to starting-stalls, but she is not without ability all the same.

Winner of a five-furlongs seller at Leicester two outings ago, Acorn Catcher subsequently finished a creditable third in a nursery over just short of six furlongs on the same course.

Back in a seller and over the minimum distance, Acorn Catcher should make a bold bid to lead from start to finish.

There can be few tougher horses in training than Shaanxi Romance, who goes for the £10,000 Tote Lady In Red Showcase Handicap.

Mark Polglase's five-year-old was denied a hat-trick of wins at Chester yesterday but ran a fine race to finish second to Cantina from a poor draw.

Shaanxi Romance can get back on the winning trail tomorrow, running off bottom weight.

Bandanna commands respect in the Summer Sprint Handicap. A winner over this course and distance two outings ago, Paul Eddery's mount has since finished unplaced in a slowly-run race at Kempton.
