Adding a route on the HN does not help (I tried that). Nor should it be
required. The packet should be bridged through the HN to CT103. Then
CT103 knows that x.y.42.42 is on itself and can process the packets.

To the optimist, the glass is half full.
To the pessimist, the glass is half empty.
To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.
