Captain Potter

9st 6lb

J: Ben Robinson

T: Brian Ellison

He's posted easy wins here this June (2m2f, good), August (2m1f, good to firm) and September (2m1f, good to soft); plenty to find with the form principals but can give another good account at his favourite track.

J: Shay Farmer

Form figures in staying handicaps at this track this year read 211, the latest success coming by 5l over 2m1f (good) last month; heavy defeat on AW last time but respected back here.

9st 4lb

J: Ben Robinson

T: Brian Ellison

Has won two staying handicaps at Pontefract this summer and he nearly prevailed in a small field here in May; edging up the weights but he's having a productive spell.

9st 12lb

J: Ben Robinson

T: Brian Ellison

Ridden by 7lb claimer when readily dismissing Diamand De Vindecy in five-runner race at Pontefract (2m2f; 6lb higher today) in June; third of 14 at Southwell (2m, AW) extended a pretty solid sequence; 2m2f might be preferable to 2m1f but he still needs respect.

Captain Potter

9st 7lb

J: Ben Robinson

T: Brian Ellison

First four starts this season included two seconds, before he went one better under 7lb claimer in five-runner race at Pontefract (2m2f) on fifth attempt for his third win overall; effective on Newcastle Tapeta but going back up 6lb may present a challenge.
