Pontefract Race 1 - Happy 80th Birthday William 'Bill' Carr Mdn Stakes (Gbb Race)
WAR GAMING (5) Made considerable ground when 3rd beaten by 1/2L last time at Ffos Las and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Has a good draw. Expect to go close. GREEN STAR (1) Finished 4th last start at Redcar. Is capable of a resurgence and drawn well. Should muster plenty of early speed. No shock to see a win. HIGH TOWER (2) Back after a break. Attacked the line when 3rd beaten by 5 1/2L last run at Salisbury and was on debut last time. Will be hitting the line strongly. In the mix. PAPHOS (4) Tidy run when 3rd last start at Leicester and putting a tidy record together. Amongst the placegetters regularly this campaign. Include in chances.

Was $3.00 and came in 4th last start at Redcar. Is capable of a resurgence and gets a favourable draw. Should come to hand quickly. One of the punters top hopes.

First run back from a break. Came on strongly when 3rd last run at Salisbury and fitter for debut run. Has a great burst of speed late. Solid claims.

Ran home into 3rd beaten by 1/2L last time at Ffos Las and showing consistent performance in races. Been in the money each start this preparation and drawn nicely. Gets a solid chance here.
