Latest win at Thirsk in June. Wasn't disgraced after 10 weeks off when sixth of 8 in handicap over C&D (heavy) 11 days ago. C&D winner can make his presence felt.

Returned to best on only his second run for new yard when landing 6f handicap at Redcar on heavy going 37 days ago. Up 3 lb but this C&D winner is expected to be bang there.

Scored at Redcar in June and largely in good form since though below-form seventh of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 10 days ago. Sort to bounce back.

Right back on song when landing 5f handicap here in the mud 11 days ago. 2 lb higher now and not easiest to catch right though.

Six-furlong winner at Ripon in July but only eleventh of 16 in handicap (40/1) at York (6f) 29 days ago. Still lightly raced so not written off.

Latest win at Leicester in June and has continued in good form, fourth of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 10 days ago when not ideally placed. Must enter calculations off 1 lb lower mark.

Much improved on back of breathing op when opening her account in 6f handicap at Redcar 20 days ago. Proven on an easy surface and still unexposed so she holds good claims despite 4 lb rise.

Winner at Windsor on soft ground in August but never able to land a blow when sixth in 6f handicap at Windsor last time. This stiffer test of stamina will suit so he's not dismissed.

Winless since the restart but arrives in good form, no extra late on upped to 7f when third of 12 in handicap at Catterick last time. Worth considering.

Course winner but back in 2017 and his recent form is far from encouraging too. Not easy to make a case for.

14:00 Pontefract - 5 October 2020 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

Lots with chances here but Michael Dods is a dab hand with sprinters and his TWIST OF HAY looks another lightly-raced improver worth following after she got up late to score at Redcar. She can fend off in-form C&D winner After John while Penny Pot Lane, What A Business and Kind Review are all much respected too.
