Another nice win for Jamie's improving horse. Original quote: "Adrrastos - Deservedly won his maiden hurdle well but struggled a bit with a penalty. He jumps fences well at home and should have every chance here on handicap debut, although it does look a competitive affair with the Skelton horse the obvious danger."

Another solid run from Gary's horse. Original quote: "I was pleased with Sussex Ranger's recent runs and it looks as though this trip should suit him well. I hope to see SUSSEX RANGER finish very close today."

Solid call from Gay! Original quote: "Johni Boxit - We were pleased with his debut third (of 6) at Yarmouth last time. Has come on for that run and despite being beaten 15 lengths that day I'm hoping for a lot better here. Tough race to call with a lot of other unexposed runners, but…

Great shout from Dave - and another TQ View winner this month. Original quote: "Archimedes - Tight little race, but Archi ran a cracker at Doncaster last time out (only beaten 1/4 length). We think we've found the key to him and being a past course and distance winner then hopeful that a return here…

A much-improved run from Mark's horse. Original quote: "Padleyourowncanoe is trying an extra 2 furlongs today, but was staying on well over the 1m4f last time out, so we are hopeful that he will stay the extra distance. He isn't the most straight forward of horse but we have a strong jockey in Luke Morris…

Well backed and another top call from Charlie to be second at 9/1! Original quote: "High On Love - Was a shade unlucky last time at Sandown in a fat hotter race. She travelled well that day, but got stopped several times when she tried to challenge. She has won at Windsor in the past…

Decent shout from Gay to be 2nd at 12/1! Original quote: "Global Rose - Debut run today, but has been doing well at home. A likeable filly that has shown enough pace at home to cope with this 5f trip. Might want a bit further in time, but looking forward to getting her going here…

Got the trip well - landed the each-way money and looks a horse to follow. Original quote: "Rock On Dandy - Yet to win, but has not been running badly recently. Down 2lbs here and William Cox claims a further 5lbs so looks on a nice mark, but does need to prove he can stay…

Spot on from Julia - nice call at 6/1! Original quote: "Tallulahs Quest - Is a lovely filly we bought from the breeze-up sales last year, but she has never stopped growing. She is on a nice mark for her handicap debut though and I will be disappointed if she is not in the money."

Spot on from Gary - each-way money collected at 20/1. Original quote: "Vikekhal - Up in trip here, but hoping that will help bring out some improvement. Competitive race but was a fair third last time out and if running to that level again would have an each-way chance."

Great winner for Jamie and the team. Original quote: "Our Three Sons - Is up in the handicap after a couple of wins early this summer but was a creditable second last time out and should again have place claims today with the Skelton horse the one we've all got to beat."

Ran on well to take the each-way money in third at 16/1. Original quote: "Princesse Fleur - Has run quite well the last two starts - but this looks competitive for the grade. A bit of ease in the ground would help her though - small each-way chance."

Won for the second time here at Chester - top call from Dave and a double on the day for the yard. Original quote: "Storm King - Won here at the May Meeting so we know the track suits. Went off too fast last time out at Epsom but does like to race up with…

Came late to land the spoils for Charlie Appleby. Original quote: "Tough race, but Chiefofchiefs is improving and his form looks rock solid. This is a step up in class but I believe he is more than capable of handling it. Hoping for a decent run."

Won this race for a second time - top effort from Dave's classy sprinter. Original quote: "Take Cover ran a cracker at Royal Ascot to be 5th in the King's Stand. Has come out of that race really well and been working amazingly recently. Should be easier for him now into Listed company - as…

Another top run in a decent handicap from this improving horse. Original quote: "Big Country - Been a busy horse of late, but has taken his racing well. Ran well for much of the way last week in the Old Newton Cup. That was over 1m4f so this drop back in trip is a plus…

Almost stole this from the front - but still landed the each-way money. Original quote: "Kapersky - Has done well since Royal Ascot - ticking over nicely. That said, this is a hot race with two main dangers in Mutakayyef, who won this race 12 months ago, and Sovereign Debt. Only 7 runners, but the…

Great ride and a great call from Mick. Original quote: "Danzeno - Ran a cracker to be 5th in the Wokingham and only beaten 1 1/2 lengths that day. Gets in here off the same mark so every chance of going close again. Tough race, but the horse is well and SDS an obvious plus…

Spot-on call from Scott. Original quote: "Nellies Dancer - Josie Gordon booked to ride and if all 8 run then I think we've got a fair each-way chance here at a nice price. Dropped 3lbs for her recent Doncaster run but te return to 7f (from 6f) is a plus. Moi Aussie and Daring Guest…
