Pontefract 1:32 Result

Albegone is clearly the class act here on OR 60, top-weight but form figures 265129 show consistent placing and a recent win, with the pattern of improving/sharp form leading into today (9 days since last run, fresher than most). Draw 5 is workable at Pontefract's 5f. Adding cheekpieces first time is a positive booking angle from Easterby, a trainer with strong course knowledge. Danger Alert (3) is the most obvious market rival but has been running over further recently with a wide draw (7) and lightly proven at this minimal trip; Jojo Rabbit's form figures are moderate with a downward trend before a recent placed effort. The rest are all rated in the mid-40s, giving Albegone and Danger Alert a clear ratings advantage of 14lb+ over the body of the field, but Albegone's course-proven, in-form profile with the addition of headgear gives him the edge for sharpening finishing speed at the sharp 5f trip. Apprentice claims are relevant, but Dickson's 5lb claim is well utilized on a fit, progressive sort. This looks the strongest overall case relative to what should be a short-priced, well-supported market position.
