A nice 1-3 for the Scott Dixon yard. Original quote: "Coiste Bodhar - Well at home. Has run poorly for a sequence now in the past and bounced back strongly so can't fully rule out."

Bang on from Scott a 4/1 5-star rated winner by 6 lengths!! Original quote: "She had a cracking year, winning 4 and progressing all the time. I feel she is more effective on a flat track, but has won over course and distance this year. This looks fairly weak. She worked the best she has…

Powered clear for the Henry Oliver team. Original quote: "Diamond Rock - Has to have a great chance - has come on for last run as returning from a break. Ground and track are ideal and we are 5lbs lower than when winning around this time last year. Each-way claims"

Solid each-way run from Harry's horse and they gave you the winner too! Original quote: "Chillala: The Fahey runner - Maybride - will be hard to beat but with little depth to the race outside that horse then we head here with place claims. Has gone well after three starts without winning, but the form…

Great each-way shout from Gary - well backed, but members were on at the bigger prices. Original quote: "Templier - I am hoping for a better run from TEMPLIER today who did not seem to quite see out the trip at Fontwell on his most recent start and like some my horses appeared to need…

Great call from Gary! Original quote: "I was highly delighted to see THOUNDER win first time out recently at Huntingdon even if his jumping was rather unpredictable at times. The ten pound weight allowance claimed by his jockey Will Clarke will offset the penalty incurred for the win and I expect a bold show today."

Mick's horse made it back-to-back wins! Original quote: "Toy Theatre - Took advantage of a light weight last time when winning at HQ and only 4lbs higher here. We offset 3lbs of that with the jockey's claim so based on that we are only 1lb higher here. The horse is well and we are actually…

Spot on from Gay - only went down a neck, but a TQ 1-2 in the race too! Original quote: "Pastime - Has done well for us so far but we gave him a 3 month break to freshen him up after a busy June and July. Is well at home and returns only 2lbs…

Much better from Dave's horse and only went down a short-head. Original quote: "Tavener - Ran better than finishing position suggested last time as only beaten 4 1/2 lengths. Back to Wolverhampton here is a plus and well-drawn in 2 helps. Step up to 7f is fine as a past course and distance winner and…

Great call from Jamie - looks to have a good one on his hands here! Original quote: "Double Treasure is in top form and having won his last three pretty impressively. He seems to be improving at home too so will be fascinating to see how he goes despite having it all to do on…

Timed it right to get up on the line!   Original quote: "Sentinel - Won nicely on Tuesday and I'm happy that he has taken his race well enough to back up quickly. He has run well over course and distance before so hopefully he can pull off a second win in a week before…

Another solid run from Mark's horse. Original quote: "Singular Quest has ran 2 solid runs since joining us & has been unlucky not to win. He is stepping up another 2 furlongs today which I dont think will inconvenience him. He has the Hannon horse to beat but should be hitting the post again."

Ran on well to take third. Original quote: "Moxy Mares ran really well first time out but didnt handle the bends at Wolverhampton after that. This looks a competitive event but if he settles well then hopefully he will be staying on at the end."

Wow! that was nice as Tim breaks his Cheltenham duck. Original quote: "Master Dancer - Heads here in rude health after an easy 10 length win on the flat at Chepstow. Back over hurdles here in a very competitive race, but has come out of that race well and will head here fitter than most…

Ran on well to take third and land the e/w TQ View money. Original quote: "Shows Over - Had 4 months off after a few races in the summer. Amateur riders' race here and our jockey claims a handy 3lbs. Is a course winner here over fences so that's a big plus and one of…

Nice call from Tim - second at 16/1 - and he also gave us the winner! Original quote: "Spectator - The Brian Ellison-trianed horse is the one we've all got to beat. Our horse has a chance though as despite a 358 day absence has been doing plenty at home - of course he'll also…

Another top win for the in-form Gary Moore team. Original quote: "Darebin - Looks as though we've one to beat (Valhalla). Fit and well, plus has come out of his recent second here very well, on what was his first run over fences. Should have every chance if repeating his last performance."

Another nice run from Charlies horse. Original quote: "Jeremiah - Like I said with our other runner today - this one made a very pleasing debut when third at Chelmsford. Yes, Newmarket maidens are never easy, but he's done well since and with the expected improvement we are hoping for a step forward here. Should…

Got the job done for Harry! Original quote: "Knight To Behold - Delighted with his debut 2nd at Newbury last month. Only got touched off by a nose that day and seems to have improved a lot for that effort. Similar race here, but hard to know about the others with some big yards having…
