Going: Good to Firm
Pentonville
PENTONVILLE has a double penalty to shoulder but is taken to make his class tell and complete a quick-fire hat-trick. Venturing is capable of better still now going handicapping for a new yard, while Ritaal promises to be suited by the step back up in trip given how she finished at Lingfield 3 weeks ago.

Has shown improved form fitted with cheekpieces switched to handicaps, readily getting off the mark in 13-runner amateurs' event at Wolverhampton before following up in cosy fashion at Brighton (1m, good to firm) 4 days ago.

Showed plenty of ability in 4 starts as a juvenile. Well beaten on 6f Thirsk handicap debut/reappearance and, while he should strip fitter, it remains to be seen if the step up to a stiff 1m suits.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosThirsk6fGoodFlat8/13Pontefract6fGood to SoftFlat4/6Haydock Park6fGood (Good to Soft in places)Flat3/6Thirsk6fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat3/15Ripon6fGoodFlat2/4- Non-Runners

Showed more than on debut when 2 lengths sixth of 9 in C&D maiden in October, finishing with running left.

Left behind a couple of lesser efforts to get off the mark in 3-runner handicap at Bath (1m, good to firm) 30 days ago.

Showed more than previously when fourth of 12 in a maiden at Dundalk (1m) in February.

Matched the pick of his juvenile efforts when runner-up at Southwell on handicap bow in January. Hasn't gone on since though, turning in a poor effort in a first-time hood at Ripon on final outing for Ollie Pears last time.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosRipon1mGood to SoftFlat8/11Newcastle1m 5yStandardFlat6/9Newcastle7f 14yStandardFlat4/7Southwell1m 13yStandardFlat2/9Chelmsford City1m 2fStandardFlat8/8- 2(4)RitaalWithdrawnJ: Lewis EdmundsT: William Muir & Chris Grassick220-34Age 3

Made more impact than previously dropped in grade fitted with first-time cheekpieces when fourth of 8 in 7f all-weather handicap at Lingfield 3 weeks ago, finishing well.
