Sunday's free racing tips: our experts share their advice for today's meetings

Handicappers' nap

Magical Effect (5.00 Pontefract)

Still fairly treated judged on last year's figures and posted a season's best RPR of 83 despite a wide trip last time. Entitled to build on that from a lower draw and down in grade.

Newmarket nap

Reaction Time (4.30 Pontefract)

Saeed bin Suroor's four-year-old has had his issues but is fit from some sterling work on the watered gallop.
David Milnes

Eyecatcher

Mr Wagyu (5.30 Pontefract)

Hinted at Redcar last week that he may be able to capitalise on a very handy mark and the visor, which appeared to galvanise him there, is retained.

Speed figures

Queen's Order (2.00 Pontefract)

Runner-up over course and distance on her debut last month and her conqueror has since won again. Pulled well clear of the rest in a decent time and can open her account.
Dave Edwards

Spotlight nap

Stormin Norman (3.00 Pontefract)

Bumper win over 2m in April. Switched to Flat and has now won both his handicaps, over 1m4f at Ripon and in dominant style over 2m1f on good to soft at Carlisle. Up another 9lb but could easily still be capable of better.

Dark horse

Van Gerwen (5.00 Pontefract)

A dual course winner who will appreciate the return to this venue and is now 3lb below his last winning mark.
Dave Revers

Irish angle

Blackhillsofdakota (2.40 Tramore)
A decent bumper performer, Blackhillsofdakota has been found an ideal opportunity to win his maiden hurdle first time up and he can take some beating in what looks a weak race.
Brian Sheerin

Must-have stat of the day

Richard Whitaker's runners at Pontefract are always worth noting – in the last three seasons he has had 12 winners at the West Yorkshire venue from just 43 runners (strike-rate 28 per cent) for a £1 level-stake profit of £31.58. Dual course winner Penny Pot Lane runs in the 6f handicap at 5.00.
