With a combined record of 5-7 at Pontefract, the most interesting contenders are PROFITEER, Loving Apprentice and May Blossom in that order of preference. Several others have possibilities, notably class-dropper The Good Biscuit and bottom-weight Mister Sky Blue.[Steve Boow]

Two wins for previous yard; encouraging form this term for new stable, doing well last time considering he came from a poor position and met traffic issues; possibilities dropped in grade.
6f winner on debut a long time ago; campaigned mostly over 7f since but shapes as if this drop back in trip won't be an issue; poor strike-rate in the last three years but is on a handy mark.
Steadily finding her form this season, not disgraced in big field at York most recently; she's 2-4 at Pontefract and returns to this course off 3lb below last winning mark; one to consider.
Scored three times off lower marks, including over C&D, last year; however, the 8yo has failed to show his form in two runs this term and is best watched unless the market speaks positively.
Couple of sprint wins (turf/AW) for previous stable; has form figures of 244 (over 5f) this season for new yard, close fourth at Beverley most recently; solid chance off 1lb lower returned to 6f.
Latest spell on AW featured a success; effective on turf but ran poorly (always behind, finished last) returned to this sphere last time; yet to defy a mark this high and can be opposed.
Campaigned mostly on AW and over longer trips; inconsistent since her sole win and has enough to prove in this scenario on return from three-month layoff.
Recorded a clearcut success in C&D maiden (soft) on final 2yo start; may still have more to offer and looks interesting back here with Newcastle reappearance (7f) under her belt.
Two from two at Pontefract, both wins over 5f on soft ground last October; ran encouragingly, amid traffic issues, over 6f at Redcar (good to firm) most recently; respected returned to this track.
Consistent spell last season featured a Redcar success; form dipped sharply (tailed-off last, something possibly amiss) over C&D in sole run this term; the betting may prove best guide.
Below-par favourite over 7f last time; in good form over 6f otherwise this term, running well at Pontefract then winning at Hamilton; this 3yo may resume progress back down in distance.
