Timeform Radio Tips: Candy can Rock Catterick

Rock On Candy runs at Catterick today.

Stephen Molyneux supplies three bets for Tuesday's racing...

The first 2 furlongs of the 14:20 at Catterick will be crucial, if Dr Red Eye and Polish World engage in a battle for the lead then it could set things up for a closer and the one to take advantage will hopefully be Nameitwhatyoulike who is rarely that far off the pace himself. He didn't stay at York last time but had been in good form prior to that yet has fallen below his last winning mark, that victory coming on similar ground at Doncaster earlier in the season.

In the wider scheme of things Lord Buffhead wouldn't be of any great interest off his current mark but he's been found a weak race in the 15:40 at Yarmouth and he should take some beating. He's already won twice this year on a very soft surface, has given his running more often than not in between and tactically should be in the perfect stalking position throughout, all-in-all looking a very solid proposition at around the 3.55/2 mark.

Rock On Candy stands out amongst some exposed sprinters in the 16:20 at Catterick and is worth supporting at 9.417/2. She's just had the two starts this year but shaped better than the bare result on both occasions, justifiably in need of the first run then meeting trouble behind Aubrietia at Nottingham last time. Both of those races had more depth to them than this and assuming she feels no ill effects of this third outing in a month, she should go well.
