DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	-%	%
35	7 Tonto Foley Lightly-raced maiden who posted his best effort when fourth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Newcastle (16.9f, good to soft) 35 days ago, despite refusing to settle. Can do better still. Weighted to go close. F-9P04	10-5	Ellis Collier	Christian Williams	3/1	4.5/1	50
14	2 Atlantic Dancer Doubled her tally with win in 10-runner handicap hurdle at this C&D (soft) 14 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up despite taking a 5 lb rise. P18-271	12-0	Bruce Lynn	N W Alexander	3.5/1	4.5/1	29
20	5 Half The Freedom Got off the mark at Doncaster in January and has posted solid third placings there and at Warwick since. Considered eased 1 lb here. 265133	10-12	Sean O'Briain	Jonjo O'Neill	5/1	4/1		20
9	6 Rainbow Jet Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles. Had wind op before coming in only fifth of 6 in handicap hurdle at Sedgefield (16.8f, heavy) 9 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. U7685	10-10	Peter Kavanagh	John Mackie	6/1	25/1	317
61	8 Rocambolas Winning pointer who hinted at promise over hurdles and fences for Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero. Hooded for 1st time back over hurdles for his new yard and no forlorn hope. U-PP945	10-2	Dylan Whelan	Ben Pauling	7/1	3.5/1		50

40	3 Red Vision Winner of a pair of novice hurdles last March but hasn't been able to make a significant impact in his 5 handicap starts this season. Mark on the slide but others arrive with more pressing claims. 5-25380	11-10	Theo Gillard	Donald McCain	12/1	9/1		25

Race 2 Uttoxeter 14:45 Novices/Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 23f

DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	-%	%
28	6 The Newest One Fairly useful hurdler/chaser who comes here on the back of a good second of 7 in handicap hurdle at Doncaster (24.4f, good) 28 days ago. The form pick. 44-5P22	11-5	Sam Twiston-Davies	Nigel	2.5/1	4/1	60
42	2 Mr Vango Won sole start in points and built on a successful hurdling debut when runner-up under a penalty at Hereford. Pulled up in Prestige Novices at Haydock last time but can bounce back. 1-12P	11-12	Jack Tudor	Mark Bradstock	3.5/1	6.5/1	86
20	3 Sporting Ace Fairly useful hurdler. 2/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable second of 7 in handicap hurdle at Warwick (26f, soft) 20 days ago. Not ruled out with headgear retained. 223222	11-12	Jack Quinlan	Neil King	4/1	3/1		25
60	4 Top Target Point winner who also landed a Wetherby novice (21.2f) on hurdles debut in December. Good efforts since at Wincanton and Ffos Las so he commands respect. 51-2124	11-12	David Bass	Kim Bailey	4/1	3.33/1		17
21	1 Mexico Fairly useful hurdler. 18/1, respectable eighth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Sandown (19.8f, soft) 21 days ago. Can give a good account back in these calmer waters. 321438	11-12	Ciaran Gethings	Stuart Edmunds	4/1	2.75/1		31
13	5 Good Friday Fairy 14/1, ninth of 12 in bumper at Chepstow (16f, good to soft) on NH debut 13 days ago. Makes hurdles debut with more needed now significantly up in trip. FF9	11-5	Ben Jones	Ben Clarke	50/1	66/1	32

Race 3 Uttoxeter 15:20 Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 20f

DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	-%	%
17	4 Corey's Courage Back on the up with a 20.5f Huntingdon win last month. Did that easily from a next-time-out scorer so a 7 lb rise looks manageable. 17-5541	11-9	Lewis Stones	Olly Murphy	1.75/1	1.75/1		0
37	5 Western Jill Runner-up in sole Irish point a year ago. Not seen again until placed in 2 mares' novice hurdles in February. While that form is nothing to get excited about she does have potential now making a quick switch to handicaps. 2-32	10-11	Patrick Cowley	L J Morgan	3.5/1	4/1	14
40	1 Marsh Wren Returned to winning ways when scoring on handicap debut/reappearance at Exeter (18.5f, heavy) on New Year's Day. Found a competitive Carlisle Class 3 beyond her next time but can do better in these calmer waters. 2191-19	12-0	Ciaran Gethings	Stuart Edmunds	4.5/1	3.33/1		26
39	2 Could Be Trouble Fairly useful hurdler who posted a respectable fourth of 6 in 20.5f handicap at Market Rasen (good) in February. Has undergone wind surgery since. 343F44	11-11	Theo Gillard	Donald McCain	8/1	7/1		13
9	6 Cast's Tasha Placed in mares' maiden hurdles at the start of the year but has disappointed in a couple of handicaps since. Still time for her to get back on track but others arrive with more pressing claims. 963366	10-2	Ben Jones	Ben Clarke	10/1	4.5/1		55

Race 4 Uttoxeter 15:55 Handicap Chase (Class 3) 20f

DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	-%	%
11	4 Lord Of Kerak Fairly useful winner over hurdles and left chase bow well behind when second of 5 at Wetherby 11 days ago, race outcome still in the balance when he got the second last wrong. Open to further improvement and can go one better. 6/542-32	11-3	Sean Bowen	Olly Murphy	1.88/1	2/1	6
68	3 Real Stone Fairly useful hurdler who showed first form in this sphere when scoring at Ffos Las (2m) 68 days ago, looking well served by the strong gallop/drop in trip. Back up in trip now but he's in excellent hands. 4F1/741	11-5	Harry Skelton	Dan Skelton	2.5/1	5/1	100
14	1 Blackjack Magic Dual winner over hurdles for Jack Barber last term and off the mark in this sphere on second start for current yard in 4-runner event at Exeter (24.2f, heavy) back in January. Jumping fell apart in better company here next time but probably best to forgive that run. 314-21P	11-10	Rex Dingle	Anthony Honeyball	3.5/1	2.25/1		36
21	2 Make Me A Believer Chepstow bumper winner and got off the mark at the second attempt over hurdles at Cheltenham (16.8f) back in December 2020. Made a respectable chase/handicap debut after almost 2 years off when sixth at Exeter but failed to build on that at Sandown 3 months later. 1213/66	11-9	Fergus Gillard	David Pipe	5.5/1	4/1		27
21	5 Prevaricate Fairly useful winning hurdler for Gordon Elliott. Looks the part for chasing but well held both starts for this yard this term, albeit showing a lot more than Wetherby reappearance at Sandown last time. 2418-P8	10-13	Charlie Deutsch	Venetia Williams	9/1	9/1		0

Race 5 Uttoxeter 16:30 Handicap Chase (Class 4) 24f

DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	-%	%
10	4 Last Quarter Hurdles winner who left his chase bow well behind when just failing at Ffos Las 10 days ago, again impressing with his jumping. Big shout up 3 lb. 5P-1P62	11-9	Jack Tudor	David Pipe	3/1	5.5/1	83
14	6 Gold Emery Point winner who made perfect start under Rules when off the mark in 17f Carlisle maiden hurdle last winter. Solid third on return at Ayr in December and all the better for chase bow when second at Newcastle 2 weeks ago. More to come up in trip. P11-352	11-8	Brian Hughes	Donald McCain	3.33/1	3.5/1	5
14	5 Tip Top Mountain Winner of a Fontwell handicap on return in November and added to tally with a battling display here (20f) in January. Wasted no time getting back to form when third over same C&D 2 weeks ago. enhancing his good record here. Worth a go at this trip. 3-141P3	11-9	Stan Sheppard	Robert Walford	4.5/1	6.5/1	44
10	3 No Rematch Struggled in 3 starts over fences last season for Evan Williams but got back to winning ways on his second run for current connections in claiming hurdle at Leicester in February. Struggled back in a handicap at Warwick 10 days ago, however. Headgear/tongue strap fitted. PP4-615	11-10	Robert Dunne	Samuel Drinkwater	8/1	3.5/1		56
27	8 Beyond Redemption First run since leaving Peter Flood when getting off the mark under Rules in 11-runner handicap chase at Wincanton (25.1f, soft) in January. Shaped better than bare result at Ffos Las since so worth another chance off revised mark. 2118-15	11-7	Paul O'Brien	Harry Derham	8.5/1	5.5/1		35
142	1 Margaret's Legacy Fairly useful form over hurdles/fences in France. Let down by jumping both starts over fences for new yard this term, though still in contention when making a bad mistake 2 out at Market Rasen last time. Off nearly 5 months. Tongue strap back on. First run after wind op. 2233-U5	12-0	Alan Johns	Tim Vaughan	11/1	14/1	27
14	2 Alkopop Has been in good form this season, finishing third in handicap hurdles on first 3 starts. Let down by his jumping back chasing at Fontwell on penultimate start, however (respectable effort back hurdling since). F-333U4	11-12	Tom Cannon	Toby Lawes	12/1	12/1		0
51	7 Oneupmanship Fair hurdler who was in the process of making a good first attempt over fences when falling at Ffos Las in December 2021. Disappointed since (left Jack Barber prior to return), however. Change of headgear. Plenty to prove. 1/4FP-86	11-7	Rex Dingle	Anthony Honeyball	16/1	6.5/1		59

Race 6 Uttoxeter 17:05 Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 23f

DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	-%	%
16	3 Had To Be Hugo Runner-up sole outing in points and has made an encouraging start under Rules, making the frame on each of his 4 starts, most recently finding just one too good in 2½m Hexham novice (heavy). Open to improvement upped in trip for this handicap debut. 2-3242	11-8	Conor O'Farrell	Rebecca Menzies	2.5/1	2/1		20
12	8 Breizh Alko Back to form returned to this sphere the last twice, latterly seeing off his 6 rivals in game fashion at Southwell (24.3f, soft). Nudged up just 2 lb and this veteran is likely to play a part in the finish. 1P-PP21	11-2	Sean Bowen	Martin Keighley	3.5/1	1.88/1		46
59	7 On We Go Plenty of positives for Gillian Boanas, gaining fourth success from last 7 starts at Ayr (24.3f, heavy) last month, well positioned but ultimately doing it well. Still, now finds himself 7 lb higher in the weights in what looks a stronger race. 2115F1	11-3	Brian Hughes	Gillian Boanas	5.5/1	10/1	82
51	6 Turning Gold Third success at Leicester when bolting up in a selling hurdle there (20.5f, heavy) at the end of December. However, ran no sort of a race back in handicap company at Ffos Las next time. 137-818	11-3	Jordan Nailor	Robert Bevis	10/1	6/1		40
14	4 Carlow Farmer Bettered this season's previous efforts when third at Fontwell a fortnight ago but he's none too reliable and is probably worth taking on. 1P-7PU3	11-8	Harry Reed	Milton Harris	11/1	5/1		55
20	2 Getaweapon Returned with a bang when winning handicap at Bangor in October but in nothing like the same form since and the addition of cheekpieces (retained here) failed to work the oracle last time. 2P-1686	11-10	David Bass	Kim Bailey	14/1	20/1	43

There are 6 runners in this race.

Race 7 Uttoxeter 17:35 NH Flat Race (Class 5) 16f

DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	%
125	1 Cherie D'am Great Pretender mare. Half-sister to fair hurdler Lalochezia. Dam (b95), bumper winner, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 3m) Victor Hewgo. Makes plenty of appeal on paper. 1	11-0	Harry Skelton	Dan Skelton	2/1	1/1	50
104	3 Northern Reel £38,000 buy after winning an Irish point in December. Stable has a good bumper record. Much respected, particularly if betting vibes strong. FU1	11-0	Harry Reed	Milton Harris	5.5/1	3/1	45
14	2 Miss Maverick Doesn't make much appeal on pedigree and failed to beat a rival over C&D 2 weeks ago. 7	11-0	Sean Bowen	Gary Hanmer	28/1	9/1	68
0	6 Shirley Knott Proconsul filly. Dam 5f winner. Bred to have plenty of speed and stable can ready a newcomer.	10-6	Stan Sheppard	Tom Lacey	28/1	3.33/1	88
