The totepool Catterick Dash takes pride of place on a seven-race programme at the North Yorkshire track on Saturday (October 18), when racing is scheduled to begin at 1-55 p.m. With almost £60,000 in prize money on offer throughout the afternoon, ‘totepool’ Day is Catterick’s richest raceday of the year.

 In fact, there’s prize money of £25,000 up for grabs in The totepool Catterick Dash, a handicap contest over the minimum distance of five furlongs which should attract plenty of good sprinters. Last year’s race was won by Even Stevens, owned and bred by Paul and Yvette Dixon and trained near Retford in Nottinghamshire by their son, Scott. 

Totepool continue to support this entire meeting, on a day which sees the penultimate round of the ‘Go Racing in Yorkshire’ Future Stars Apprentice Series – now in its second year – which culminates in a Final at Doncaster next month. Coming into this race, North Yorkshire-based rider, Megan Carberry has a clear advantage with 47 points, followed by a trio of riders on 24 points – Joe Doyle, Claire Murray and Alistair Rawlinson. 

As usual, the giant screen and the Closed-Circuit Television System will enable racegoers to see even more action on the track, along with showing the action from QIPCO British Champions Day at Ascot. 

The indoor and new outdoor play areas in the Course Enclosure will be in use for young racegoers. The raceday shuttle bus service is in operation from Richmond town centre.
