By Gordon Brown Arctic Mann has his sights on the £10,000 feature race at Perth for the second year running. The Nick Alexander-trained gelding, again ridden by Bruce Lynn, is one of seven declared for the Murrayshall Golf Handicap Hurdle over 3m 2f. Twelve months ago, racing from a 4lb lower mark, the eleven-year-old scrambled home by a head from Lahardaun. His rivals this time include Happy Index, trained by Olly Murphy’s and partnered by newly-crowned champion jockey Sean Bowen. The Warwickshire raider is one of three mounts for Bowen, who, in 2024-25, enjoyed 14 winners at Britain’s most northernly venue with only Uttoxeter, with 16, supplying him with more success during his championship campaign. Proceedings get underway with the Murrayshall Country Estates Mares’ Maiden Hurdle, in which Green Sky, representing Stuart Crawford and J J Slevin, is likely to be sent off a short-priced favourite. Alexander also bids to land the last again with Not In Kansas, although this year the Murrayshall Meetings And Events Conditional Jockeys’ Handicap Hurdle has been split and the Kinneston visitor runs in the second division under Joe Williamson.

Catterick Racecourse’s 2025 Flat season continues in style on Saturday 24 May with one of its most popular fixtures – the Catterick Beer Festival Raceday, held in association with Pennine Brewing Company. Now in its seventh year, the event marks a firm favourite on Catterick’s racing calendar. Local independent brewery Pennine Brewing Co., based in Well, will once again be offering racegoers the chance to sample ten different ales and ciders throughout the afternoon. The action kicks off at 1.40pm with the Pennine Brewing Company Maiden Stakes, while the final race of the seven-race card is scheduled for 5.15pm. After racing, the festivities continue with live music from The Black Marcs, and the course will remain open until 6.30pm, giving attendees even more time to enjoy the beer festival atmosphere. Pennine Brewing Company’s Debbie Clayton commented: “All of us at Pennine Brewery are thrilled to be part of the seventh Catterick Beer Festival!  It’s a highlight on our calendar every year, and we’re just as excited this time around.  We’ll be bringing along a fantastic range of our award-winning brews for racegoers to enjoy, and we can’t wait to raise a glass with you to celebrate great beer and racing!” Alongside the on-track action and live entertainment, there will be free children’s activities in the Course Enclosure, including a Bungee Run, Rock n Roller challenge, bouncy castle, and soft play area to keep young racing fans entertained. Emma Stevenson, General Commercial Manager at Catterick Racecourse, said: “We’re thrilled to be continuing our partnership with Pennine Brewing Company. The Beer Festival Raceday is always a highlight – a great day out for everyone, with racing, live music, craft ales, and plenty of family-friendly entertainment.”

Star jockeys from across the globe including Hollie Doyle, Ryusei Sakai and Karis Teetan will headline the Dubai Duty Free Shergar Cup in 2025 which features a new-look team format. Leading British rider Hollie Doyle will make her fourth appearance at the Dubai Duty Free Shergar Cup as she captains the Great Britain & Ireland team in the popular event which takes place at Ascot Racecourse on Saturday 9th August 2025. Dubai Duty Free’s title sponsorship of the event is also continued for a 20th year, with £500,000 in prize money on offer across the six-race card as well as £25,000 in stable bonuses. Japanese jockey Ryusei Sakai will be the star attraction in the newly-created Asia team. Sakai is already a household name on the international scene through his partnership with the globe-trotting Forever Young, the world’s highest-rated horse currently, and Shin Emperor. The Asia team replaces the Ladies team in the competition for 2025, recognising that female jockeys compete on a level playing field with their male counterparts. The Ladies team was first established in 2012, after the format had expanded to four teams in 2007. The Ladies team won four of the six most recent editions of the Dubai Duty Free Shergar Cup including last year’s dramatic victory secured with Hayley Turner’s success in the final race aboard New Image.
