13:17 Pontefract
Runner-up to an unbeaten colt at Chester, DARK ROSA was then able to go one better over C&D. George Boughey's filly now steps into the nursery ranks, but a mark of 76 doesn't appear harsh and she is expected to double her tally. Top Juggler is proven with cut in the ground having won at Hamilton in August. John and Sean Quinn's charge doesn't look overburdened by an opening mark of 79 either and he can give another good account of himself. Stirrup Cup is also noted.Prediction : 1st Dark Rosa 2nd Top Juggler 3rd Stirrup Cup
13:52 Pontefract
A typically open sprint in which many will fancy their chances, and only a tentative vote can go to OBJECT. Fourth behind the reopposing Alafdhal (second) at Catterick last week, that performance is worth a slight upgrade given he raced alone with no cover for the entirety of the contest. The market clearly expected better that day and, from his low draw, the son of Aclaim could repay his supporters. Yazaman had excuses at Redcar and is no forlorn hope, while others to note include Music Society and Profiteer.Prediction : 1st Object 2nd Alafdhal 3rd Yazaman
14:27 Pontefract
Charlie Appleby boasts an excellent 38 per cent strike-rate (17-45) when sending runners to Pontefract and, with that in mind, preference is for DOUBLE MEANING, who hinted at promise over 1m on debut at Newmarket. A step up in trip should suit the son of Farhh and it would come as no surprise were he to find the necessary improvement. Ralph Beckett keeps churning out the winners and Haydock runner-up Sir Dinadan merits the utmost respect. Way Of Stars is most appealing of the remainder.Prediction : 1st Double Meaning 2nd Sir Dinadan 3rd Way Of Stars
15:02 Pontefract
RETRACEMENT failed to see out 1m2f when carrying a penalty at Goodwood, but he won a maiden over C&D before that and a strong bid is anticipated from William Haggas' inmate now handicapping. Sea The Dream ran well for third at Southwell last time and will relish the testing conditions, as will Epidavros, who is attempting to land a hat-trick now raised a further 3lb after scoring at Hamilton. Graecia is open to improvement on only her second start in a handicap and is another to note.Prediction : 1st Retracement 2nd Sea The Dream 3rd Epidavros
15:37 Pontefract
JUSTUS ticks plenty of boxes having won on testing ground over C&D before scoring again at Ripon back in April. The six-year-old has gone well fresh in the past and Micky Hammond will likely have him primed for action on his return. Surrey Force lurks at the bottom of the handicap with scope for improvement over this marathon trip having placed at Chester last time. Soft ground is a worry for Weddell Sea so Yorkindness may prove a bigger threat back at this lower level.Prediction : 1st Justus 2nd Surrey Force 3rd Yorkindness
16:12 Pontefract
POET'S DAWN has to be forgiven a below-par effort at York, but looks worth another chance based on his convincing win at Carlisle in August. Tim Easterby's charge made every yard on the soft going on that occasion and looks set to go close again if allowed his own way at the head of affairs. Walsingham is expected to improve making his handicap debut on only his second start for David O'Meara's yard, while Style Of Life could also go well after scoring at Thirsk three weeks ago.Prediction : 1st Poets Dawn 2nd Walsingham 3rd Style Of Life
16:45 Pontefract
Game Breaker successfully completed a Hamilton double on her most recent start and while she is in this sort of form, she is hard to ignore. However, the more appealing option is ALTMORE. The unexposed son of Showcasing beat a rival now rated 74 to shed his maiden tag at Chepstow last month and has plenty of scope for improvement, so he can defy his opening mark of 76. Emperor Caradoc is the pick of remainder.Prediction : 1st Altmore 2nd Game Breaker 3rd Emperor Caradoc
17:20 Pontefract
Beauty Choice, who took a division of this race 12 months ago, has occupied third spot on each of his two outings since scoring at Catterick, including in a warmer event at Haydock last time, so he is one to take seriously. However, it may pay to side with ORBITAL CHIME, who produced a good effort to make the frame at Epsom and the handicapper might have been kind to drop him 1lb for that performance. Wichahpi is another to keep an eye on.Prediction : 1st Orbital Chime 2nd Beauty Choice 3rd Wichahpi
