A good bit if rain around today. So it will be likely the ground at both jump meetings will be on the slower side. At Uttoxeter 3.30, Hidor de Bersey has a good chance of going one better than his decent second about a month ago at Carlisle. He was not able to match the strong finish of Nurse Susan that day when second. But she has won well since, and it was a credible run that day. Anyharminasking looks like the one to beat.

Southwell has a lot of runners, with a changed surface of Tapeta today, with the previous surface of fibresand being dispersed with. Yantari 7.00 has given ground away on his two runs so far, if he starts well he will take a bit of beating, as i thought James Doyle was at fault, when he got racing a bit too early on his latest run at Wolverhampton, when a decent third, considering he blew the start as well. It was a fair effort to be third, collared in the latter stages of that race. He would be my choice in the 7f race.

More soon.
