In depth
Verdict
Plenty of characters in this line up make this a nightmare for punters at Uttoxeter on Thursday night. Chancy Charly and Callfourseasons would figure prominently in the market if they were able to produce their form of a couple of years ago but both look to have had their share of training problems. Justjim was far from disgraced in a decent Worcester race but has questions to answer on the surface. Millersford comes here on the back of a win at Towcester but he doesn't win very often. A tentative vote is given to Mr Mahdlo who should love the ground despite being seven pounds out of the handicap. Lucy's Lad is respected.
