Pontefract Race 5

Phil Bull Trophy Conditions Stakes (Gbb Race)

Prize Money: $49,815

KYLE OF LOCHALSH (1) is a strong stayer and handles easy ground. Excellent third in a French Listed heat last time out and finds good opportunity. OXFORD COMMA (4) was outclassed among G2 company last start. This looks more realistic. Created a good impression winning novice races at Salisbury and Doncaster and retains untapped potential when tackling this trip. RAJINSKY (2) finished tailed off on his only outing this term. Strong claims based on efforts of last year. WISE EAGLE (3) is another classy operator when at his best. Below form recently. Managing a G3 third at York in July gives him every chance.
