Horse of the Day

No luck on Thursday, but we go again on Friday where Savannah Moon lines up with strong claims in the 8:30 at Pontefract.

This four-year-old filly only returned to the track earlier this month after over seven months away and can improve for that run, which nevertheless saw her in the winners enclosure.

She has won twice from 10 starts on turf, including once from two starts over 1m 2f. That included her last run and she seems to have found a suitable distance and can repeat that course and distance success.

Trainer Kevin Ryan also has a handy record in handicaps at Doncaster - landing seven winners from 61 starts for a decent SP profit and an 11.5% strike rate. That improves to 27% when looked at just today's distance.

Savannah Moon is up 6lbs but looks well enough suited to justify backing at 4/1 before the prices go in the morning. Bet365 and Ladbrokes are your top priced bookies in this one.

1pt Savannah Moon to win the 8:30 at Pontefract at 4/1
