18:30 Pontefract Handicap (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

DANDY DINMONT bounced back to form when a head second over 5f at Beverley last month and the five-year-old merits plenty of respect off just a 1lb higher mark here. Emperor Caradoc has also been knocking on the door of late and could prove to be the main danger, although Honour Your Dreams and Indian Sounds should not be discounted.

INDIAN SOUNDS looked right back in top form when a strong-finishing third at Thirsk last time and he's already scored here in the past, so he makes plenty of appeal provided that the pace is sound. Dandy Dinmont and Emperor Caradoc also arrive in good order and should be on the premises.

Paul Midgley has a great record in this race. Last year's winner INDIAN SOUNDS is first choice ahead of stablemate Emperor Caradoc.

19:00 Pontefract Maiden (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

ARDEUR caught the eye when finishing fourth on her debut in a competitive event at York a couple of weeks ago and the daughter of Kameko could be hard to beat with that run now under her belt. That said, Lady Luzon has a similar profile and should not be underestimated, while any market support for Misty Sky would have to be noted.

ARDEUR made a pleasing start in what's likely to prove a hot race at York so, in these calmer waters, she's well fancied to open her account provided Misty Sky doesn't prove to be above average on debut. Lady Luzon is open to improvement but has plenty to find with the selection.

The form choice is ARDEUR, ahead of Lady Luzon.

2-2 at this venue, including a success off this mark in this race two years ago.

19:30 Pontefract Handicap (Class 4) 12f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Most of these have questions to answer right now, but not ESMERAY after her success over 1m2f at Lingfield a month ago. The step back up in trip should not be a problem for Ralph Beckett's filly and a 2lb rise may not be enough to stop her in this company. Eleanor Cross failed to fire last time but is a player based on her previous efforts, while Charging Thunder completes the shortlist.

ESMERAY showed a good attitude to score at Lingfield a month ago and she has the scope for better still, so there's every chance she'll follow up at the possible expense of Charging Thunder who ran with credit at Newcastle last time. Eleanor Cross isn't fully exposed and is another one to consider.

Back at Pontefract, CHARGING THUNDER (nap) could well regain the winning thread. La Pulga is second choice.

20:00 Pontefract Handicap (Class 6) 17f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Having looked somewhat of an unlucky loser when denied a clear run on his second-placed finish at Chester last time out, compensation could be headed in TIGERTEN's direction. Kevin Frost's charge races off the same mark, which could prove pivotal, and he's narrowly preferred over the consistent Easy Equation. The Rajsaman gelding looks to have a race in him off his current rating and another good effort can be expected. Sugarpiehoneybunch and Rory The Cat complete the shortlist.

TIGERTEN reacted well to first-time cheekpieces when a staying-on second in a much better race at Chester last time so, from a goo draw, he's an obvious choice to go one better. Sugarpiehoneybunch also arrives in form and the longer trip should be no issue, so she's regarded as the main threat.

Based on a few different factors, TIGERTEN looks the best option. Easy Equation is second choice.

20:30 Pontefract Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Although a dual winner over hurdles, Freddy Robinson has yet to convince with his stamina over this far on the level. Brian Ellison's gelding would likely to play a leading role in the finish if seeing the 1m2f distance out, but VISITANT rates a more solid proposition. The veteran posted a respectable third at Newcastle last month and he certainly won't be lacking in the staying department at the finish. Tiberio Force also warrants a second look in his current form.

Brian Ellison's FREDDY ROBINSON should take a step forward from his promising Nottingham reappearance fourth and can capitalise on a 1 lb lower mark here. C&D winner Masque 0f Anarchy is next on the list ahead of in-form duo Tiberio Force and Tasever.

A chance is taken on TASEVER, who remains a maiden but is unexposed beyond 1m. Bay Dream Believer is second choice.

21:00 Pontefract Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

MILBANKE found the 5f on his reappearance here on the sharp side and this dual 6f winner should travel much sweeter now faced with a stiffer test. A second course victory could be on the cards for Julie Camacho's inmate, possibly at the main expense of Catton Lady. A 1lb drop in the ratings for the three-year-old's latest third over a mile at Redcar looks generous, although she would make more appeal over further. Travis is also noted.

Julie Camacho's C&D scorer MILBANKE teed himself up well for this when fourth here on his return and can build on it to resume winning ways. Catton Lady appeals as the main danger on the back of her good recent Redcar third, although King of Tonga is weighted to have a big say too.

Off a handy mark back at Pontefract, BRAVEHEART BOY could well record a first handicap win. Milbanke is second choice.

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
