Newbury 1.50

Newbury 1.50 7 King Uther @ 5/1 (see staking explanation in tips logic)

This race sees the anticipated return of Barters Hill and the very useful The Eagle Has Landed also returns after
a tendon injury. We can only guess what kind of shape those pair are in and I don't think they are going to be asked serious
questions if tiring in anticipated "tacky ground". They could finish 1-2 on 95% form with the rest strung out. Lough Derg Farmer
has a squeak back hurdling but it could be we have an each way Banker in the race in KING UTHER. If everything else was
fit and on better ground he would be 12/1 or higher; the 5/1 reflects concerns in various forms about the other and KU comes
here fit; in form, ready for a slog and proven in a fight, do the others really want to slug it out with bigger prizes a few weeks
away and recovering from long term injuries. I would not usually go each way at 5/1; but it seems a very logical bet.
