PONTEFRACT SEASON 2019.
Welcome to our twelfth meeting of the season on Sunday 18th August.
1st race 2.00pm, gates open from around midday.
The 2019 season continues with our final Family Fun Day on Sunday 18th August. These Sunday fixtures not only feature the best racing of the year at Pontefract with over £100,000 worth of Prize Money available at each meeting, but they are also the 3 fixtures each season dedicated to families. As well as special events on each Sunday raceday, there will also be a funfair, face painting, circus, free sweets, activity packs and racecards for kids, pony rides, trips to the starts of races and a ‘Hunt The Golden Horseshoe’ competition on every Family Day. The meeting will begin at 2pm with the "Trevor Woods Memorial British EBF Novice Stakes" an event for 2yo's over five furlongs.
The "EBF Stallions Highfield Farm Flying Fillies' Stakes" is the feature race at 3.30pm with over £33k up for grabs to the winner of this 6f contest. A race won last year by CASTLE HILL CASSIE (left) we will look forward to the declarations for this event.
ALL of our results for these fixtures are recorded to a level stake at Starting Price (SP), and will also show any forecast results too in the daily results but these do not count for the profit / loss figures. We arrive here on the back of a small loss last time which does mean we are still trailing on -46.525 points to SP as we come into the twelfth meeting and are now heading towards to final few 'furlongs' of the season. The forecast going is now currently reported as 'Good, Good to Soft in places' and our weather for Sunday afternoon is for a generally warm day with plenty of humidity and a good chance of some light rain showers and we've a forecast maximum temperature around the 19C mark.
