From the connections
“Last time [met trouble at this course] was a disaster and the cheer I got on the way in I think every man and his dog spotted it and they've all had a few quid on! It went more smoothly today - a stronger gallop helped. Mount King loves fast ground and he loves Pontefract - David Allan, jockey, speaking to Racing TV.”
“We bought Mount King second hand at the Horses In Training Sale from Joseph O'Brien and he's been a lovely horse for the owners - Tim Easterby, trainer.”
