Mr Orange loves Pontefract, and the 2016 winner of this contest has been in fine fettle lately, so comes into the race very much on the short-list despite a troubling wide draw. Taverner and YEEOOW should make this a good test, with the latter named also sporting strong Pontefract form coupled with an appealing falling mark. Of the younger horses, Kody Ridge should run his usual solid race and Perfect Symphony isn't discounted if he stays the trip in what looks a race best suited to keeping stakes to the minimum.
