The first of four consecutive Wednesday afternoon meetings at Catterick takes place next week (July 3). Racing is scheduled to begin at 2-30 p.m.

The European Breeders’ Fund support the opening race – a contest for maiden two-year-old fillies over five furlongs, while the feature race of the afternoon is a Handicap contest over seven furlongs.

The St. Teresa’s Hospice Handicap Stakes, a race for stayers over two miles, draws attention to the fund-raising activities on the day of St. Teresa’s Hospice in Darlington. The Norman Johnson Is 70 Maiden Stakes for two-year-olds, is named after an annual member of the racecourse.

As usual, the giant screen will be in use, enabling racegoers to see all of the action.
