Just some very small interests,unsure of ground at ponte would like to see it desperately slow but going stick 6.8 suggests it might not be..ew yankees on first four..
Pontefract 2.14
Scarlet Dancer 5/1 365 4/1 generally 4 places skybet 9/2 888sport
Scarlet Dancer won what looked a weak novice race at Chester,am unsure how reliable the times were therethat day because no mention of rain thriugh the day,but its winning time was only .24 slower than the older 0-90 on the card,runs here off 80 which would seem a decent mark presuming those times are comparitive..Aleezdancer has the 8 draw as mentioned in Dark Defender write up,that could be an advantage and looks the obvious one with more form in the book on softer ground.
Had saver on favourite got stake back,unreliable those times at Chester as usual..

First Account 7/2 victor 10/30 generally
First account out of sire Malinas was a decent middle distance runner runner up in the German Derby,but has had ten runners on the trf and yet to produce a winner,more of a nh sire First Account rated 122 over hurdles wins on soft ground from 2m4fs uto 3miles..Trainers given it three runs on trf recently not showing a great eal,infact you could argue the ark of 62 doesn't look that great,but ground has been quicker steps upto 2m3fs
Billy Garritty takes off another 3 worth giving it a chance in what looks a weak turf race..I thoght the Channon horse also looked interesting Folly Beach out of Golden Horn a sire with a 30% strike rate over these trips and good o soft and heavy griund,has bits of form that are ok and althogh beaten over 12ls in a 1m6f race 0-85 at Sandown still loks interesting in such a poor race with just six runs and open to improvement..

Tiger Beetle 2/1 generally Indefatigueable 10/30 365
Tiger Beetle has some respectable form,i think its mark of 80 is bang on 3rd to Nagano at Nottingham on soft ground the ? is the distance so far not looked like staying but out of Camelot suggests it should still open to some sort of improvemebny despite a string of places..The other is a 148 rated hurdler,sire Schiaperrelli rated 120 on turf won over distances fro 1m4fs to 2mile,the negative is strangely just producing decent hurdlers although only had five runners on turf not one yet placed..An interesting runer in what looks a relativey weak maiden,if favourite desn't stay then must have some sort of chance,although not run since April so there maybe a possibility gettng a run in for fitness..

Little Jo 7/1 888sport 13/2 generally skybet 4 places
An ultra competitve race for the grade,Little Jo is the most exposed runner in the race maybe not good enough to win but is a c/d winner and likes soft ground last five runs on soft ground 2/1/3/1/2 the recent 2nd c/d run in a very weak 0-80 on bad ground off 76 off 73 tomorrow..Did win earlier in the season off 72,think it's more of a case of hoping the grounds really slow which suits for a c/d winner...There are far more interesting runners but too competitive too narrow down..
Decent place..

Dark Defender 66/1 ppower/sportsbook skybet 6 places Penny Pot Lane 66/1 ppower/sportsbook skybet 6 places
Sam James rode Dark Defender to a c/d win here on the 4th of August that day the ground was very slow race was slow by 7 seconds,they took the outside route and ignored the inside the whole field switching,going stick says 6.8 really could just do with a deluge of rain and then maybe the draw would favour the highs...Whatever the going does now,it's almost certain Sam James will come stands side he's drawn 17/17 so really has no choice,if the ground is absolutely desperate then has an ew chance, Dark Defender and Zumurud were 4ls clear of the rest of the field that day,although it has to be said you won't find a weaker 0-80 anywhere.Tomorrows race you can virtually give anything a chance,out of the 17 runners probably only 3/4 you could rule out but so many ? of ground and which side they will come..The other c/d winner Penny Pot Lane looks like its being laid out for one of these,thats also 66/1 massive prices when you consider it won this race last year off this mark then followed that up with a 3rd off 71 although a weaker race..The odd thing is pieces are left off which it wins in,they've been running it on the wrong ground and without pieces as well..Am just wondering if they're planning coming back here in two weeks time for what would be a liklier easier race,but at 66/1 will have to throw some coppers on it..I suspect they are aiming for the latter race.
You could go on forever with this race,so many with chances may as well have a few coppers on the two rags.
Will settle for that i knew the highs would come out on top,Penny Pot Lane gets 5th,very nice as backed it for both 5&6 places shouldv'e just stuck to this race today crazy prices...
