FFos Llas 9.00
ROBIN - Uttoxeter 9.00 - Handicap Hurdle - Class 4 - 2 miles 7 and 1/2 furlongs - 10 run
PRESENTING YEATS comes here for a Class 4 race instead of Worcester yesterday for a Class 5, the Yard must be confident and having analysed both races I actually think this is no harder despite being a higher Grade. I'm more than happy to have a confident investment in PRESENTING YEATS again.
Of the rest, Fergal O'Brien runs a pair at the head of the market in Landen Calling who is 11lbs above its Course and Distance win mark, its running well but at the price the penalty puts me off. Via Dolorosa is one of our ex French Trackers from the Pipe yard that have served us so well, it's on a cracking Hurdle mark but I feel not great market value having been Chasing over the bigger fences for a considerable time, the other O'Brien horse is Sammylou who is probably the best value of the three if you wanted a win saver, but I'll stick with PRESENTING YEATS and have a small e/w on something at a much bigger price instead of a saver on something shorter.
For Jim would have a squeak for Jennie Candlish back Hurdling, it has Hurdle wins off marks of 99 and 105, runs off 107 here and should outrun Odds, it would have been a small tip but for HEAVEY for Neil Mulholland. Its actually on its last winning hurdle mark, its 6 out of 6 finish back over Hurdles last time belies a good run and it was only beaten around 6 lengths in total. A repeat of that could nick a place here and I think its over-priced considerably.
TIP - Presenting Yeats / shrapnel - Heavey
