Hat-trick of wins beckons for The Good Biscuit at Pontefract
THE Good Biscuit can defy a penalty to complete a hat-trick for Ruth Carr in the Bet With Jayne – Your Local Bookmaker Handicap at Pontefract today.
The five-year-old won for the first time this summer when holding off Aberama Gold by a neck at Catterick last month in the hands of Joanna Mason.
The son of Sixties Icon followed up with a more impressive victory at Pontefract, readily holding the field by one-and-a-half lengths to justify even-money favouritism.
Reunited with Mason he can take the 5lb penalty in his stride today to complete the three-timer.
Sunny Orange can prevail in the Honda Wakefield Super-N Amateur Jockeys’ Handicap.
The six-year-old has been beaten by only half-a-length on his last two starts at Beverley after being upped in trip to a mile-and-a-quarter by Tim Easterby. Left alone on a rating of 59, the Expert Eye gelding can come on for those runs in East Yorkshire and score for the first time since April.
Sea Her Excel can follow up her recent Ayr victory by again striking in the Fbs Chartered Accountants Chaplins Club Handicap.
The Ivan Furtado-trained three-year-old broke her maiden in June, making all to win at Wetherby before finishing down the field at Windsor after being raised 6lb by the handicapper.
But the daughter of Bungle Inthejungle bounced back in Scotland, again winning from the front and despite being raised another 3lb can follow up that Ayr triumph.
