Pontefract Placepot picks: Robbie Wilders supplies the Flat turf perm
There is likely to be some juice in the ground at Pontefract on Tuesday and Maketh Believeth should handle conditions better than most in the opener (1.00).
Champagne Terri, who is 11lb better off (factoring in jockey claims) with Ghadbbaan for a two-length defeat at Doncaster in March, is also worth selecting.
Mattice almost beat high-class juvenile Lusail last season in a York maiden and might have too much class in the 6f novice (1.30). Ribchester handled soft ground better than most and his son, Ribtide, can also hit the frame after an encouraging return.
The Jamaican Flight Handicap (2.05) is tricky and the well-handicapped strong stayer Ernestois the pick for Ian Williams. As is Mukha Magic, whose jockey booking catches the eye.
Last year's Wood Ditton winner Peter The Great is banked on in the feature 1m2f handicap (2.40). It is surely significant he is retained by top connections.
Love De Vega enjoyed a decent two-year-old campaign and better awaits this season. He can win the next (3.15).
Soul Stopper has the most compelling claims in the final leg (3.50). By Postponed, he is bred to improve with age and boasts useful soft-ground form.
