MARK Buckley has his squad in good form and his Peyto Princess looks an interesting runner in the E B F Fillies Showcase Handicap over six furlongs at Pontefract this afternoon.

The trainer has already been on the mark with sprinters Armagnac and High Esteem this month and Peyto Princess has been shaping of late as though a return to winning ways is on the cards.

My selection confirmed her previous Doncaster run was no fluke when fourth to Magic Music and Tapau at Leicester and that form has been boosted by the subsequent victories of both the winner and runner-up.

And the daughter of Bold Arrangement ran well in a competitive handicap on fast ground at Redcar last time when a close fourth to Smart Predator, who ran so well in defeat at Newcastle on Saturday.

Although her wins to runs ratio isn't impressive, she's won her only start to date over this course and distance and she's taken to get the better of Andrew Balding's Emerald Fire.

Mark Johnston's juveniles have been in tremendous form and his Lucky Story looks the type to improve again in the Spindrifter Conditions stakes over six furlongs.

Johnston's colt faced a straightforward task with his main market rival running below form at Ayr last time but the manner of his victory was impressive and, although he may ideally be suited by further, this stiff uphill finish should be to his liking.

At Wolverhampton's afternoon fixture, Geronimo makes plenty of appeal in the St Theobold Of Provis Day Handicap over six furlongs.

Although he's a quirky type, there's a strong possiblity that this race will be teed up for him as there are several confirmed front-runners in the line-up.

Gay Kellaway's runner shaped as though coming to hand over course and distance recently and he's capable of going well from a mark that is 4lb lower than his latest win over course and distance.

Paul D'Arcy's Anemos landed a bit of a touch when successful at this course earlier this year and he can repeat the feat in the National Ice Cream Soda Day Handicap over the extended mile.

He's mainly a consistent sort but his latest below-par effort at Warwick can be attributed to racing on the wide outside of a large field from his unfavourably high draw.

The return to this surface will be very much in his favour and he's taken to get the better of My Retreat, who has plummeted in the weights since his last win but should be spot on now after two recent runs for his shrewd yard.

At Musselburgh's evening fixture the booking of Kieren Fallon looks significant for Jim Goldie's Ballyhurry, and the combination can click in the McEwan's Lager Handicap over seven furlongs.

This six-year-old is an improved performer this term and he should be able to confirm recent Ayr placings with Beauteous, a winner at Carlisle last week, on these terms.

At Windsor Fly More, who won with plenty to spare at Newcastle on Saturday, looks the one to be on.
