Tuesday the 9th of April...

14.10 Pontefract: Buzz Law @ 7/1 Paddy Power - 2pts win

Huge price I feel for a horse that is certainly well handicapped and the only slight concern if he's race fit. But I would assume so. He's a decent record fresh, winning on his seasonal reappearance in 2011 and jockey booking is quite telling here as Phillip Makin is booked for the ride who has a huge 33% strike rate with Mrs. Burke for the past 12 month. Buzz Law is now down to his last winning mark of 69 which came almost exactly two years ago but he ran some fine races of higher marks, most notably in the summer of 2011 in class 4 handicaps on ground described good to soft, so ground conditions tomorrow should be fine too. Really interesting is his most recent run from August 2012. He was down to his last winning mark for the first time since quite a while, and he travelled like a dream through the race on the bridle until almost 1f out when he made nice headway only hands and heels ridden looking to produce a winning challenge half a furlong out just until he got badly hampered by the eventual winner. So overall there speaks allot in his favour, only slight concern is the big field size, but in a smaller field he'd be a much shorter price anyway.
