2:35 Pontefract Tips

Looks like a good bet dropping in class. This course-and-distance winner is three pounds lower than for his win here in August last year. Should at least be competitive.

This seasoned competitor has fallen to a favourable rating of 73, comes in with strong recent form, and excels as a multiple winner over this C&D, making him a worthwhile each-way bet at reasonable odds.

Has won twice in Class Four company, placed twice in 2nd and finished 4th more recently in the last five runs in this class. Just a length off latest at Southwell, but returns to turf here on a lower mark and the regular jockey returns on board here.

A wide-open sprint where Squaler appeals at a big-looking 9/1. He has been contesting better races than this of late and takes another drop in the weights. This stiff 5 should suit.

Equity Law has not won since last August when on his current lowest-ever mark of 72, and he should go close from the rail draw.
