Quiz Master can have the answer
Quiz Master has a welterweight to carry in Uttoxeter’s opening handicap hurdle. But he has much in his favour.
Last time, he was tried over three miles by trainer Colin Tizzard and struggled with the trip and Ffos Las’s heavy ground.
Previously, the six-yearold had been beaten in photo-finishes by Christmas In April and Kalmbeforethestorm over shorter.
His Ffos Las run also came after a six-month summer break, and Tizzard will be looking forward to Quiz Master progressing again.
Paul Webber has been quiet by his standards. But he had a winner at Southwell in the week and is eager to see Indefatigable running today.
Certainly, on the basis of his debut three-and-a-half length third to subsequent Cheltenham bumper winner Relegate, he has a great chance.
Following that Punchestown effort, he dead-heated for first at Southwell as he returned from a break at Newbury, 17 days ago.
Notwhatiam won a fiverunner race at today’s venue, after his move from Ireland to Dan Skelton, and went on to a 0-140 at Cheltenham.
The former Adrian Keatley inmate was travelling smoothly a month ago, but fell two out. Today’s 0-135 is a realistic target.
