Verdict
Mas Poder made all in novice company at Pontefract and makes her handicap debut with a chance. Rebel At Dawn is another to consider in this grade only 2lb higher than when scoring at Redcar earlier while Modular Magic had been threatening before finishing behind fifth-placed BE PROUD at Musselburgh. The latter has won twice since landing this race last year with Never Dark back in third and Jim Goldie’s charge may prove the one to side with again. John Kirkup also finished behind the selection last time having beaten Rory by only a head at Musselburgh earlier.
