A much better run from Tim's horse - onwards and upward from here. Original quote: "Timely Gift - Bit to prove still, but only lightly-raced with just 4 runs so will be more to come in time. Hoping the softer ground will suit and has improved for his last run, which was his first 5…

A much-improved run from Gay's horse. Original quote: "Reedanjas - Ran well last time to be third at Yarmouth. Back on the AW today and dropped a pound too. We also have a 7lb claimer on today so that helps and draw 5 is ideal. Bit to prove over this 6f trip still, with only…

Great end to the season for Dave's horse - placed at 66/1! Original quote: "Storm King: Had a cracking season - winning four times - so owes us nothing. Likes to race up with the pace so will make a bold bid from the front again. But a bit to prove over this 1m4f trip…

Another top run in Listed grade from Mick's horse. Original quote: "Danzeno has had a busy season, but is going well at home. Decent end-of-season sprint and we head here with a decent chance. Sir Dancealot looks the main one to beat, but our 6 year-old will love the soft ground and also the return…

Ran on well to be placed again - top run at 10/1. Original quote: "Pastime - Had a top season and has now only been out of the top 3 once from his 7 starts. More needed again off a 3lb higher mark, but remains in cracking order at home so with trip, ground and…

A solid e/w run from Scu's horse. Original quote: "Zayfire Aramis - Ran a cracker last time despite being fourth - was only beaten 1 1/2 lengths at the line here. Gets in off the same mark and seems to have come on for that. Hard race now upped in grade, but conditions to suit…

Top call from Gary. Original quote: "Its Got Legs - First run here today, but a horse which goes well at home. Tough to assess what he's taking on but definite e/w chances."

Another win for Gary's improving chaser. Original quote: "Stoical Patient - Won well after a long break at Plumpton last month. Has come out of that race well. Slight drop in distance here but still appears well handicapped still (despite another 10lb rise) so should have every chance."

Ran on well to take second and looks a horse to follow next time. Original quote: "Mister Chow: First time over this distance - thought he'd got it the other day.  Hopefully should have every chance again here. "

Spot-on from Mark - placed again and e/w money landed! Original quote: "Binky Blue - A horse that rarely runs a bad race. Often placed but hard to win with and more of the same on the cards here. Back to 7f will help and last run had excuses as didn't have the best of…

Well backed and a nice winner for Jane! Original quote: "Loveatfirstsight - One of two in the race for us - only third run for us so still finding our feet with her, but starting to look very well-handicapped on old form. Yet to win from 13 races so that tells a story too, but…

Stayed on really well to take this for Mick. Original quote: "Topaminchi - Amateur riders' race, but we've a decent jockey onboard and also claim 5lbs from the saddle. The horse has run well the last twice without winning and this is only his 4th run for us after coming from the Mark Tompkins team.…

A nice Scott Dixon 1-3 in the race! Original quote: "Coiste Bodhar - Ran a fine race in third last time out in the Ebitdas race at Catterick. Course and distance winner and loves this very soft/heavy ground. Wouldn't be surprised to see him land the spoils here today."

Wow! Another win for Scott's improving sprinter! Original quote: "Editda - Been an absolute star this season in her grade - winning 5 times this season. Last run at Catterick was by far her most impressive, when winning by 6 lengths. She is fine and well after that, but it's worth noting she has flopped…

A solid each-way run from Mick's horse. Original quote: "Fantasy Keeper - Mainly been running well and returns to a track that sees his form figures read 1-2-2. Give in the ground a plus too and seems well after a month off. Many chances in the race, but hopeful of a good run."

Spot-on call from Harry. Original quote: "Caracas - Ran much better last time out and slowly things start to be clicking. Competitive race, but conditions will suit and if taking another step forward from last time we head here with decent each-way claims."

A nice run from Jane's horse - one to watch (as she said) for next time. Original quote: "Wicker - Lightly-raced so there should be more to come in time. Been off since June though when a much better third at Yarmouth. Likley to need this first run back, but certainly one to look out…

Ran another decent race to be placed. Original quote: "Nellie's Dancer - Finished in the top three in her last three races so despite not breaking her duck yet (12 races) has certainly been hitting the crossbar. Bumped into another one last time that won with ease, but still did well to come second. Conditions…

Ran a blinder for the Scudamore camp. Original quote: "Justice Knight - Into a handicap for the first time here today which will help. Up in trip to 2m2f will also suit and this grade looks right for him to start off in handicaps. Ground and track are fine too so just hoping for a…
