Pontefract 26/7/09

[fintron]

5.30 Pontefract La Capriosa is 4-9 for Robert Winston and the jockey has a respectable record at this track. Drawn in stall 4 which will be a help and likely to race up with the pace, which is another. Not had much racing in turf handicaps but won a claimer at Beverley to suggest does act on turf too, and looks handicapped to have a chance based on AW form. 12/1 Bet 365, EW.

Re: Pontefract 26/7/09 2.40 Ponte Looks a interesting race with several in form horses and 2 hatrick seeking, master nimbus is hatrick seeking on flat but failed to be over impressive over hurdles recently but it seems the money about is pushing out the other hatrick seeker forest flyer who is 3lb higher when winning last time out but has Tylicki on board claiming back that 3lb which could be very very useful 0.5pt e/w forest flyer (8/1 bog) 3.15 Ponte Dontpayferryman is back out for the fahey/hanagan team when last seen on the flat was a running off a 1lb higher mark on the all weather and should be able to improve on the turf aswell as does reasonably well on the jump circuit and can more than cope with the cut 1pt win dontpaytheferryman 4.25 Ponte Either im missing something or the bookies have gone mad but 33/1 looks a massive price for barons spy won a similar event to this off a mark of 83, then ran a brilliant second off mark of 87 up against thebes in a class 2 event back down to class3 today and run off same mark can cope with a cut in the ground. The massive problem is the draw but does not warrant a 33/1 price lol 0.5pt e/w barons spy (33/1) 5.30 ponte Select commitee is one of the most consistent sort and looks as though the handicapper is going easy on him has finished runner up twice off this mark, does struggle to get in front but has once off a mark of 56 0.5pt e/w select committee (4/1 bog)
