This one for this evening :
7:05 Uttoxeter 1. Ahead Of The Curve 4 pts @ 11-8 BetStars, Betfair, Paddy Power, BetVic, SkyBet, BlackType
I had picked this out last night, but felt that the 4-5 offered little value.
At this bigger price, we are going to have a play.
The Skeltons run Night At Tara here - and the filly is attracting money in the market. But this is her debut over hurdles and she would have to show much more than Ahead Of The Curve did when he was beaten by an odds-on shot on his debut (24 lengths to 3rd place).
But it's not clear cut. Although that debut run was eye-catching, and represents the best form here in this maiden by a long way, there's some doubt over the ground this evening and his ability to cope.
Then there's the jockey. James Corbett takes a lovely 7lbs off, but this is his first ever ride at Uttoxeter.
It's still the best bet of the day from what I can see though, so take this enhanced price!
