Catterick Bridge Race 2

Well-Earned Retirement Neal Kidd Nursery

Prize Money: $12,915

ATHOS (8) failed to make much of an impression across three starts in maidens however starts off among open company now in a realistic assignment and could offer some value for a stable who continue very much in form. SOLDIER'S ECHO (5) also makes handicap debut after hinting ability in novice races. Latterly finished 11L sixth at Beverley (1000m). Open to plenty of improvement. SO TEMPTING (7) made a positive start in this sphere when denied by only a head at Chepstow (1200m) twenty four days ago adopting first-time cheekpieces (retained). Likely challenger. AURA OF MELANIA (2) came home a career best 1.25L third latest (1200m). Completes the shortlist.

Most recently struggled in the run home; 9th of 12 at Doncaster on August 1 over 1300m, 12 len behind Tiora Time with 56kg at $51. The run before that raced on the pace before fading 7th of 10 at this track on July 15 over 1000m, 8 len behind South West with 56.5kg at $4. Prefer to see her back in form.
