TIMEFORM VIEW Uttoxeter winner from 9lb higher last summer but ended the season badly out of sorts. Bit more like it back from a break when third returned to that venue in June and this represents a slight drop in class. TFRHHHHI BHA100

TIMEFORM VIEW Finally off the mark in 20.2f course handicap in September Unseated rider then refused to race here last month so clearly very risky at present despite a confidence-boosting run on the level. TFRHHIII BHA96
