Verdict

A typically competitive opener to the final meeting of the year at Pontefract where the draw may well play its part in the result. VENTURA CREST is one of three that Tim Easterby runs in the race and he’s well drawn to go forward here and should make a bold bid to build on his runner-up spot from last time. Plenty will fancy Gamesters Icon but she faces a difficult task from stall 14 as do most of those running from double-figure draws. Bee Machine is bred to be better than his current mark and showed some promise last time out and this trip should suit. Hyanna is another Easterby runner of interest as handicaps have always looked as though they will see her in a better light than the stiffer tasks she’s faced in maidens.
