Pontefract Race 2 - Always Trying Racing Syndicate Ebf Restricted Novice Stakes (Gbb/Gbbplus Race)
ROGUE CRUSADER (1) Strong effort to the line to win last run at Kempton and having second race start. Looks a worthwhile investment today. SILVERELLA (4) Stormed home to win last time at Goodwood and has drawn the rails. Can get the job done . SCRAPPETALENE (6) Applied plenty of pressure when 3rd last start at Lingfield. Should muster plenty of early speed. Will give a big sight. ASTRAL CROWN (2) Tidy effort when 3rd last start at Southwell. Should race on the speed. Might be one for the placings.

Placed 3rd last start at Southwell. Has early speed and positions nicely. Place claims at best.

Odds of $51.00 and was ordinary when 9th last run at Windsor but having second race start. Expected to settle towards the tail. Will struggle against these.

Was outmuscled when 3rd beaten by 2L last start at Lingfield. Won't be far away during the run. Must be considered here.

Started $41.00 and well beaten when 8th last run at Chester but was on debut last time. Hard to see this being good enough.

Started at $26.00 and fairly underwhelming when 6th last start at Newcastle but was on debut last time. Carrying less weight this time. Difficult to warm to at present.

Was $67.00 and lacklustre showing when 10th last start at Ripon but has a good draw. Prefers to settle towards the rear. Looks too tough.

At $34.00 lacked competitiveness when 5th last run at Thirsk but fitter for debut run. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Can't entertain.
