Pontefract Race 4

Racing TV Sky Channel 424 Handicap (Div 2)

Prize Money: $14,760

SALARIA (5) maintains impressive form with three wins the last four outings including winning by 1.25L providing most recent appearance at Lingfield Park AW. Holds winning form at this venue. Leading contender. LATIN (7) won by a neck a Lingfield Park AW handicap before following up with a third at Southwell AW last Friday. Quickly turned out and could bounce back. MOUNT KING (8) makes some attraction towards bottom of the weights providing first run this year. Holds winning course and distance form. Dangerous. SWIFT SALIAN (3) cannot be discounted after placing second at Beverley delivering penultimate start.
