Stayed on to land the each-way money. Original quote: "Princess Fleur - Seemed to not be giving her all last time so have put some blinkers on today. Is better over fences, but not that many options for her at the moment so have gone back over hurdles. Has place hopes."

Ran on well to take third. Original quote: "Escalating - Draw 12 not ideal, but has been running well of late. Not going to be easy from there, but the horse is in great form so small each-way - but will probably need a bit of luck in-running."

Got home by a neck to land the money. Original quote: "Suzi Icon: Only second run for us - was previously with John Bridger. 7th of 14 on debut for us at Brighton, but well down the field that day. Hung late on that day so the track probably not ideal for her, while the…

Always travelling well - powered clear to win well and looks a horse to follow. Original quote: "Better drawn (4) than last time when winning here over course and distance. As long as there is pace in the race, Gossiping should have very chance again. "

Followed-up last week's course win. Original quote: "Moi Aussie - Won last time out at here in good style - carries a 6lb penalty for that but did it nicely that day and no reason why she can't go well again with Silvestre riding again."

Another solid each-way run from Mick's horse. Original quote: "Be Royale - She's still going strong at 7 and this will be her 56th career run. No real hiding place from the handicapper these days though and just 1 win from her last 32 tells it's own story. Never far away though in her races…

No chance with the winner, but great run at 100/1 to be second ! Original quote: "Pastime: A fair sixth on debut at Catterick - expected to come on for that and take a step in the right direction, but hard to see him toppling the front two in the betting on what they've shown."

Another course win for Tim's horse - top call at 12/1! Original quote: "Dovils Date - The favourite won with a lot more in-hand last time than the winning margin suggested so might be hard to beat here. Our horse has a bit to prove at the moment, but did run a lot better last…

Powered clear to win by an easy 2 lengths. Original quote: "Fantasy Keeper - Lightly-raced with just three career runs, but has done really well the last twice. Into handicap company for the first time helps and seems well after a small break. Think the return to the turf will be fine and the step…

Another nice each-way run at 16/1. Original quote: "Consistent type, returning back to hurdles. Expecting another solid run today from Golanova and should not be far away - Tom Lacy's Midnight Monty looks the danger, but we look a nice each-way price. "

Nice call from Gary - third at 12/1! Original quote: "Was well-beaten last time but hoping for a better display today. Dropped 3lbs and down in grade here both help. Hopeful Royal Battalion will run into a place."

The cheekpieces certainly helped - one to watch next time. Original quote: "Impressive Day - Struggled in handicaps so far. Hopefully headgear (first-time cheekpieces) might bring out some improvement today, but hard to get too excited until we see more on the track."

Top debut run for Daniel at 66/1. Original quote: "Not After Midnight - Our first two year old runner of the year so still slightly in the dark where they sit as a bunch. Straightforward filly who will gain plenty of experience in what is usually a very decent race and this looks no exception…

Great call from Jamie. Original quote: "Fine Jewellery - Works and schools well. He can certainly win a race of this nature of this mark. Gavin Sheehan rides and with just 10-0 to carry we head here hopeful of a good run with Man In Black looking the danger."

Wow - great call from Scott at 25/1. Original quote: "Ebitda - Showed us plenty early on at home but failed to build on a promising run at Southwell on debut. I feel something was amiss with her without being able to pinpoint exactly what that was. Has been working nicely at home and feel…

Spot on call from Gay. Original quote: "Lady Alavesa - Down the field on debut, but has come on a lot for that run and hoping that experience will help her today as she also needed that run. Been going well at home and the ground here (more give) will be more to her liking.…

Came with a great late charge to take this - one to follow this season. Original quote: "Pensax Boy is having his first run for our yard and also his first run this season after a long break, so we are expecting him to come on from this today. He is a lovely horse and…

Nice each-way call from Mark. Original quote: "Little Miss Kodi will have come on from her run last time out at Wolverhampton and we think the good ground up in Carlisle will suit her today. Our apprentice, Toby Eley, is riding her to take 7lbs off her back which puts her well in at the…

Well-backed - led from pillar-to-post - great call from Scott. Original quote: "Pearl Noir - Course and distance winner - one of two in the race for us. Likes to race up with the pace so hoping to make a bold bid from the front again. Has run well the last twice and is also…

Looks a nice recuit for Mick! Original quote: "Kickboxer - The O'Meara horse looks the one we've all got to beat - Our runner returns from a 245 day break so might just need this and first run for the yard after coming from the Godolphin team. A nice recruit to the yard though -…
