Pontefract Race 4

Pontefract And District Golf Club Ltd Handicap (Gbbplus Race)

Stake: $19,926

Five-race maiden LOOKS FANTASTIC (9) receives a nice handicap. Provided a creditable third at Doncaster in latest adopting first-time blinkers. TIME TELLS ALL (7) belatedly shed the maiden tag with a 3L win at Beverley (2011m) earlier this month. More needed from a 3kg higher mark. Rated higher in the past and warrants maximum respect. RAULIN (6) climbed in the handicap delivering an impressive win at Redcar (2012m) during May. Beginning to ease in weight. Each-way chance. UP THE JAZZ (4) finished second from this mark at Beverley two starts ago. Warrants consideration.
