🏇 PONTEFRACT HORSE RACING SYSTEM - 2021 SEASON - MEETING #13 16th SEPTEMBER

PONTEFRACT SEASON 2021.

Welcome to this our thirteenth meeting of the 2021 season taking place on Thursday 16th September. 

1st race 2.15pm.
Going: Good to firm

Our second Art of Racing raceday will be on Thursday 16th September and will celebrate everything we know and love about The Sport of Kings. A day truly dedicated to The Art of Racing will feature a seven race card with the highlight the £30,000 EBF Fillies’ Handicap over 6f. Just three more meetings to follow to complete our season here in Yorkshire.This afternoon's 'feature' event on the card is the EBF Fillies Handicap over six furlongs. This is due off at 15:25 today,  will see if Vanitas remains in the final declarations later in the week a course and distance winner back in June [sadly she doesn't appear in the seven runner field]. This race was won last season by Simon Crisford's filly 'Last Surprise' pictured below.

ALL 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. After a good opening we have seen a few winners and at least secured a small profit on the last two meetings. Despite this though we still have to carry over a deficit of -24.88 points onto this thirteenth meeting this afternoon.

Going / Weather: The forecast going is now currently reported as 'Good to firm' while the weather for Thursday afternoon is for a generally cloudy day with a light breeze but we are not expecting any showers the forecast maximum temperature around the 21C mark.

Having started the 2021 season afresh, we had a nice start early on but sadly begun to fall behind now as we passed half way of this full season on the track. After the opening twelve meetings we did have a couple of winning fixtures but are sadly still -24.88 points behind coming into this thirteenth fixture, the results for today will be updated during Thursday afternoon as we try to claw back a little more again. 

What a frustrating day that was, 5 seconds and 2 non runners, so we losing today again. -12 points overall sadly puts us back up again to -36.88 points. 

The fourteenth fixture here will be held on Thursday 23rd September so we do hope you will follow the action throughout the season.
