Tip for this race
All today's tips ›Yeld To Call is our selection at Uttoxeter, and the case rests on fitness and a more solid book of form, which is enough to prefer her over the top-rated Sevarana despite being rated five pounds below her. At 104 she sits narrowly ahead of No No Fizz on 103, and over this 20 furlongs on good ground that sound profile should count for plenty. Sevarana is the obvious danger on raw ability, while No No Fizz and Gower Spirit are both capable of making it a tight finish in a competitive nine-runner Class 5. Yeld To Call gets the vote.

No No Fizz bounced back from a pulled-up effort to finish fifth last time out, and she has run over today's trip and going before, with a win three starts back showing her upside. The main risk is a 184-day absence, plus a hefty 168 lb.

Sevarana arrives with a fine profile: third last time out, a winner two starts back, a second three starts back and a winner four starts back, and she has run over today's trip and going before. Our rating of 109 puts her top of nine, but 247 days off the track is the main risk.

October Hill ran well last time with a second, though a sixth and a fifth in the two runs before that keep her on the fence, and she has won once in her last six starts. She has run over today's trip and going and has had 31 days off, but 164 lb is a hefty burden for a mid-ranked runner.

Yeld To Call has been in the frame twice in her last five, with a second two starts back, and she has run over today's trip and on this going before. Fresh after 31 days off, she is our pick on overall profile, though she is yet to win in that spell and carries 163 lb.

Gilbertina has been consistent, with a third four starts back and fourths either side of it, but she was only eighth last time out and returns after 175 days off. She has run over today's trip and going, yet is yet to win in her last five and carries 160 lb off 97.

Gower Spirit was second last time out and has finished runner-up in three of her last five, while she has run over today's trip and going before, and our rating of 100 ranks her fourth of nine. The main risk is a 226-day absence, with 160 lb to carry.

Nala The Lioness won last time out and was second two starts back, and she has run over today's trip and going, but a quick six-day turnaround under 157 lb is a big ask. Our rating of 90 ranks her eighth of nine, so she's hard to fancy.

La Lolita is winless in her last five, and a ninth last time out is hard to ignore after a run of fifths and a fourth, so she's tough to fancy. She has run over today's trip and going, and is back quickly after 16 days, but 155 lb is a big burden.

Amberelli is winless in her last four, beaten into eighth last time out after a fourth and a sixth before that, so she is hard to fancy as the bottom-ranked of nine on our figures. She has run over today's trip and on the going, and 27 days since her last run is no concern.
