5/1
Not been in the best of form and well held on chasing debut here last time. Is starting to look dangerously well handicapped returned to hurdles but need to see much more spark before becoming of interest.

3/1
Maiden hurdle winner on good ground over 2m at Worcester in September. Fair fifth on handicap debut subsequently and has had wind surgery since disappointing at Taunton in November.

Age: 5|  Weight: 11-5| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: B I Case| OR:  108
12/1
Still has potential over hurdles after just four starts. Still yet to prove that she absolutely gets this far too and suspicion is that she will be better over slightly shorter. Leading rider aboard for the first time.

Age: 7|  Weight: 11-1| J: Wayne Hutchinson| T: Noel Williams| OR:  104
2/1
Benefits of wind surgery and a switch to better ground brought about some improvement at Southwell (2m4½f, good) last time. That was a step in the right direction and further improvement is possible.

Horse silk
Candlelight Story20
Age: 8|  Weight: 10-12| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Candlish| OR:  101
20/1
Not sure she quite deserves the mark she has on what we have seen so far. Did show a little improvement upped to this trip over C&D last time. Can improve at some stage but she may want even further than this to peak.

Horse silk
Milan Of Crystalt15
Age: 9|  Weight: 10-11| J: Lee Edwards| T: Dave Roberts| OR:  100| D
10/1
Won at Warwick and Worcester last October and not disgraced off 8lb higher mark when thrid at Bangor soon after in her hat-trick bid. Looked in need of the run on comeback at Southwell (1m7½f) two weeks ago and immediately goes back up in trip.

Horse silk
10/1
Best effort for a while at Southwell two starts back off 2lb lower. Bombed out at Market Rasen next time and very hard to fancy on the back of that run here.
8
Horse silk
Katebird35
Age: 4|  Weight: 10-2| J: W T Kennedy| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR:  94
33/1
Fairly decent flat performer who has not shown much in four starts over hurdles so far. Very much the type to do better now she tackles handicaps and is on a decent mark if you take her flat form into account. Market will be a useful guide.
9
Horse silk
Cautorillo18
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-2| J: G Sheehan| T: Jamie Snowden| OR:  91
12/1
22/1 and beaten a fairly long way on handicap debut at Market Rasen 18 days ago. Dropped 3lbs for that effort but needs to show more before coming of interest.

Forecasts

Undisputed (2/1), G For Ginger (3/1), Morning Herald (5/1), Visage Blanc (10/1), Milan Of Crystal (10/1), Cautorillo (12/1), Oksana (12/1), Candlelight Story (20/1), Katebird (33/1)

20:30 Uttoxeter - 10 July 2018 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

Both Undisputed and Candlelight Story are respected here but there is a small suspicion that both may want a little further than this to be at their best. Milan Of Crystal would be a danger if returning to her form at the back end of last year. A chance is taken that KATEBIRD can finally translate some of her flat ability hurdles now she goes into a handicap for the first time.
  1. Katebird
  2. Candlelight Story
  3. Undisputed
