PONTEFRACT HORSE RACING SYSTEM -- 2017 TURF SEASON -- PART THREE

PONTEFRACT SEASON 2017
Wednesday 3rd May 
Welcome to this our third meeting racing in Yorkshire. 


Time for our third meeting here in West Yorkshire for Pontefract Racecourse. Coming quickly on the back of our first couple of meetings where sadly we are a little behind but not by much. -5.3 points down for the season with plenty of time to turn that around. We will look forward to getting underway on Wednesday where the first race will be off about 2.15pm.

As always we count ALL results for this meeting returned to a level stake at SP, and will also show any forecast results too in the daily results but these do not count for the profit / loss figures.
The forecast going is currently reported as 'Good, Good to firm in places' the weather for Wednesday afternoon is for a generally sunny day with a forecast maximum temperature around the 13-14C mark.

Here are our selections for the 7 races on Wednesday afternoon, remember it's a very simple selection process of stalls 1 and 2 in every race;

2:15 5f Novice Stakes (2yo).
(1) -- BRANDY STATION [WON 33/1].
(2) -- VENTURA CREST.

2:50 1m 2f 6yds Maiden.
(1) -- WARM LOVE [3rd 8/1].
(2) -- SILK TRADER [4th 100/1].

3:25 1m 4yds Handicap.

Staked -- 14 points.
Returns -- 40.85 Points. Wonderful day kicked off with a 33/1 shot (backed at 50s but even so what a result) +26.85 profit today. 

Alas so far it's been a fairly mixed start in the opening two rounds with just a few winners and several non runners, meaning a small loss of -5.3 points to SP to carry forward here for our 3rd meeting.

Our results from today will be updated later on at the end of the meeting although I am also away at Ascot races and that too will be written up shortly. As a result of our successful day we are now back in the black and showing an overall profit of +21.55 to carry forth.



Our next meeting will be an evening card held on Friday 26th May. 

Keep following us throughout the season.
