WELCOME – FRIDAY EVE 28TH MAY WELCOME BACK TO PONTEFRACT RACE NIGHT – FRIDAY EVE 28TH MAY

We’d like to offer a warm welcome back to all racegoers attending tonight’s race meeting. It’s the first time that we’ve been able to welcome back racegoers since October 2019 and we’re very excited to see you all!

We wish that we could welcome you back in more ‘normal’ times but it’s fantastic to just see people back on course.

Our aim is to keep you as safe as possible and there are a number of restrictions which have been put in place in conjunction with our local Safety Advisory Group who are following Government legislation.

As you’d expect there are a number of changes to the normal service and we’d be grateful for your cooperation in following one way systems, abiding by social distancing, using the hand sanitiser and wearing a face mask whenever you go indoors.

PLAY SMARTER

Preference is for IRV, who wasn’t seen to best effect at Thirsk recently and is better judged on his most encouraging C&D reappearance effort off a 2lb higher mark in April.

Ugo Gregory has edged down to an appealing mark and is feared with conditions to suit, while a similar comment applies to James Park Woods. Oud Metha Bridge is also shortlisted.

PLAY SMARTER

This is likely to boil down to a match between SKYRUNNER and Follow Your Heart. The latter did the job well on return at Wolverhampton and should have more to offer, but preference is for Skyrunner, who didn’t look short of speed when scoring over 7f at Doncaster, offering hope that this drop in trip won’t be an issue.

PLAY SMARTER

CORMIER ended last season in good order on the Flat and arrives here having posted a cracking second in the Swinton Hurdle at Haydock 3 weeks ago, leaving the impression he should have finished even closer. He may yet have more to offer from this sort of mark in this sort of form and earns the vote. Sudona and Sociologist rate the chief dangers, in that order.

PLAY SMARTER

MYRISTICA and Maxine both carry penalties for recent wins, but the former perhaps has the greater scope for further improvement, so gets the nod. Double Reflection has dropped to a good mark so shouldn’t be written off fitted with first-time blinkers.

PLAY SMARTER

VENTURA EXPRESS is clearly weighted to reverse form with Soul Seeker from last time and, with just the three starts at the minimum trip under his belt, he could easily have more to offer for his new yard. Ghathanfar also arrives at the top of his game so is feared most.
