Pontefract 15:27 Odds Comparison

Largely progressive form, winning twice last season before runner-up in ultra-competitive 3-y-o handicaps at the Newmarket July meeting and Glorious Goodwood. Off 6 months, shaped as if better for run when sixth of 13 over 11f at Kempton 24 days ago. Likely to go well with that behind him.

Won at Ayr (13f) last June and better form when placed at Ascot and York (twice) later in the season. Possibly unsuited by very testing ground when well held in the November Handicap at Doncaster final start. Contender if ready to go after 164 days off.

Useful gelding but failed to win last season. Not at best when 9½ lengths fourth of 7 to Gethin in listed race at Kempton (1¼m) on reappearance 15 days ago but ought to strip fitter for the run.

Useful sort who failed to take to hurdling at Catterick on New Year's Day but ran a cracker back on the Flat at Doncaster (1¼m) last month considering he set a strong pace into a stiff headwind. Likely to be very competitive.

Useful 3-time winner but all on artificial surfaces, including in Dubai earlier this year. Made a respectable return to Britain at Newcastle on Good Friday but needs to prove he's equally as effective on turf now.

Winner of 1¼m Redcar novice on reappearance last spring and showed slightly better form in defeat in handicaps at the start of the summer. Off since disappointing in the John Smith's Cup last July but evidently capable when fresh and remains relatively low mileage.

Back to form with a bang when scoring twice on all-weather in December. Just as good when placed twice this year but not at his best at Newcastle on Good Friday. Had decent turf form earlier in career.

Useful performer in France for Henri-Francois Devin. Picked up by new connections for 45,000 gns last autumn. Regularly wore a hood and tongue tie combination in France, with only the former remaining in place for this British debut. The betting is perhaps the best guide to expectations.

Winner of a useful 1¼m Sandown handicap on Eclipse day last summer. Possibly unsuited by soft ground when below par there on final start in September. No great record fresh so might be best to look elsewhere.

Winner over 2m last summer and last seen contesting the Cesarewitch at Newmarket. Did win over 1½m last spring but got to be a chance he'll find this a little on the short side back from 6 months off.

Four-time winner at up to 1¼m in Ireland in 2025, including on soft at Listowel (1m) last September, but hasn't offered much in 3 outings for new yard in 2026. Best watched unless the betting strongly hints otherwise.
