Uttoxeter Placepot picks: Paul Kealy provides his perm for a tricky Friday card

Given the field sizes, Uttoxeter is the obvious venue for a Placepot.

There's not a lot to go on in the opener (1.20), so it's probably best to concentrate on those with reasonable bumper form, with and being the suggestions.

The second (1.55) is another competitive novice with little in the way of hurdling form and my two from the bumper sphere would be Alan King's Exeter winner , and Emma Lavelle's King's Threshold. Both should appreciate the 2m4f trip.

It doesn't get any easier with the first handicap on the card (2.30), but was consistent last year without winning and goes well fresh.

has been in form over hurdles this autumn and should be a player if taking to fences, while was going the right way when last seen and completes the trio.

In the next (3.05) has been given a big chance by the handicapper with a 9lb drop since he last ran over hurdles, while a more solid one would be , who went close here this month.

There are plenty of promising types in the feature (3.40) and it all depends on who takes best to fences. The best-fresh and prolific are my two.

That just leaves another fiercely competitive handicap hurdle (4.15), in which and make most appeal.
