12:55 Pontefract - I was waiting to see if there would be any money for Jianzi, as Jedd O’Keeffe’s horse’s often improve a lot 2nd time and he has a good record in maidens here but it’s weak in betting so maybe one for the handicaps. She needs to improve anyway as she finished 2 lengths behind FOOTSTEPSTOTHEHART, who has finished 3rd on both his runs so far. He sets a fair standard and could win this unless there is something above average among the newcomers. Tom Dascombe newcomer Artorious is the most interesting and I think he will be thereabouts, Dascombe is only 1 from 15 on debuts at Ponte though ( winner was 14/1, but 6 of them were beaten having gone off at under 5/1 with all but one of them placing). It looks between these two to me, so will have a little forecast too.
Oh God, I picked Jianzi out last night, was waiting this morning to see if there will be any support for it, but there was nothing for it on the exchange (when I say nothing there was I think less than 1% of the total staked on race on it). Wins at 16/1, am I kicking myself.
