Daily Racing Tips: An Ace up my sleeve to prevent post-Ascot blues

Carl Harris tells us why the 3.40 at Pontefract today is a race that wouldn't have been out of place at Ascot, plus who our money should be on.

After Royal Ascot, Sunday is a day to take it easy and catch our breath. There is a race though at Pontefract that would not be out of place at Royal Ascot. The Pontefract Castle Stakes is a listed event which has attracted a quality field of eight with the lowest mark being 104.

Pontefract deserve much credit for the prize money that they offer, a policy that is often, but not always, rewarded with very good fields. All the Aces (3.40) is well named in the context of this race and should put up a good show. He ran well at Newbury last time, going down by half a length, drawing clear of the third place horse by eight lengths. The stable form would be a worry though with Michael Jarvis' horses not quite firing this week but I do think All the Aces is good enough to win this over a trip that will suit him ideally.

They call Philip Robinson the master tactician, so lets hope that proves to be the case today!

Sunday's Bet

3.40 Pontefract - All The Aces Win
