A competitive affair as is so often the case at this progressive West Yorkshire venue. JOHNNY CAVAGIN races from a mark which he should be capable of winning from and always seems a much stronger performer at this track as opposed to anywhere else these days. His last four C&D visits (since September 2015) have yielded form figures of 1,1,2,3, and with a proven ability to handle underfoot conditions he should run his usual rock-solid Pontefract race. However, if there is a horse to represent the main danger, it could well be Khelman. This track is seemingly an ideal match for his potent ability to make strong late headway from off the pace.
