It wouldn't be Pontefract without a marathon contest for the stayers, and this race has the look and feel of a National Hunt contest with the likes of Warren Greatrex (x2), Dan Skelton (x2), Olly Murphy and Paul Nicholls listed in the trainers column. Three of those declared (Mandalayan, Ginistrelli and Moon Of Baroda) are reappearing post wind surgery while the autumn York scorer Sassie is newly tongue-tied so it's prudent to adopt a cautious approach. Nevertheless, it is the Paul Nicholls-trained/Megan Nicholls-ridden OLEG who makes most appeal. He hacked up on the Fibresand at Southwell in March, and it's possible the 12lb weights rise can be overcome.
