A much better run from Tim's horse. Original quote: "Sergio - Second runner in the race for us and of the two probably the more to prove at the moment. Is certainly capable of better too but hard to get too jiggy until we see more on the track. Be delighted with a step forward."

Solid run from Oliver's horse. Original quote: "Broughtons Rhythm - Glance Back to beat but we head here hopeful of a good run. Is better than recent fourth at Bangor - didn't jump too great that day and got left behind a bit after those errors. Unseated the time before when looking set to run…

Top winner for Simon and the team. Original quote: "Chica de la Noche - Some way below her best these days but been solid enough off this mark in recent runs and only needs things to fall right for her to get her head back in front again. Wide draw no help here (10) but…

Great front-running dispaly from Jamie's horse. Original quote: "Scorpion Sid - Was a decent novice hudler and jumps fences well. 2m on good ground was too sharp a test last time but this looks more realistic. Providing the ground doesn't dry today he looks to have a decent chance."

Improved run from the old boy! Original quote: "The Lock Master - No hiding place for this one these days - old-timer that owes us nothing and still loving his racing. Will be 12 soon and this will be his 148th career race. Looking very well handicapped off 45 and back in grade will help.…

Another winner on the day for Scott's yard. Original quote: "Love Rat - Sixth here last time out over 1m3f but 5lbs lower this time so hopeful we can get a lot closer. We are also putting the visor on for the first time to help him focus. Di's Gift looks the one to beat…

Top winner for Scott. Original quote: "Champagne Monday's - Delighted with his run last time when a much better third here over this trip - Same mark here but lower grade so must have a great chance of going close again. Strong each-way chance."

Much better effort at 50/1 for Dave's horse. Original quote: "Bawtry Lady - Fourth last time out here in a similar race and with that coming off a break has come on for it. Light weight (8-7) helps too but still has a fair bit to find on these terms in this Classified race as…

Another winner in the day for Mick. Original quote: "Classic Pursuit - Returns after a few months off but is well at home. Has run well at the track before, without winning. Has gone okay fresh in the past but looks a very open race and over this sprint trip it might be won by…

Looks one to follow for Mick. Original quote: "Al Reef - Unexposed sort that is having his handicap debut here. Will be much more competitive than what we've seen but we'll know more about his mark here. Draw 4 helps and surface should be fine. Poor race and being lightly-raced suggests there will be more…

Great call from Gay. Original quote: "Scale Force - Going the right way and a horse we like. Fourth run here today and has come on for last outing back on the turf at Donny in November. Surface should be fine and Toby's claim a help. Got the Hughes horse to beat but think he'll…

Spot on from Mick. Original quote: "Whenapoet - Second runner in the race for us - fairly closely-matched with our other runner too. The more experienced of the pair with 9 runs but is also yet to get a win. Gone well the last twice though with a third and second but is also having…

Great display from the front from Mick's horse. Original quote: "Tan - Ran much better last time out when a close third at Southwell. Up just a pound for that and the step up to 6f will be fine. Draw 9 not 100% ideal though so might need some luck from there, but the horse…

Each-way money landed. Original quote: "Precision Prince - Sixth last time out at Kempton but that came off a break so has certainly come on for that at home. Down a pound for that here and draw 9 should be ok. Hoping for a much better run and looks a nice each-way price to us."

Double on the day for Gary. Original quote: "LE PRECIEUX ran well to take a fairly weak maiden on the flat a couple of weeks ago. Has form on decent ground but he may find it hard to get past CYBALKO, who looks to be improving."

Gutsy win for Gary's horse. Original quote: "AR MEST has yet to progress after winning his maiden last year but put in a decent performance when third at Lingfield recently. I hope to see an improved performance from AR MEST today but I think I would have to treat him as an each-way prospect"

A double on the day for Henry. Original quote: "Arthur Mac - Ran nicely last time out when fourth at Bangor. Has come out of that race well and the ground here is fine. Two or three others with similar chances but should be in the mix."

Nice winner for Henry. Original quote: "Another Theatre - Ran nicely twice already this season and looks to have each-way claims again here. The McCain horse is feared and looks above average so might be playing for places but in a race that lacks depth we'll be disappointed if we can't fill one of the…

Nice call from Mick. Original quote: "Star Of Southwold - Only second run for us after coming from the Richard Hannon camp. Fair third last time out here over 1m4f but the drop back to the extended mile will suit after not quite seeing it out last time. 2lbs lower too so hopeful of a…

Another solid e/w run for Mick's horse. Original quote: "Sellingallthetime - Better for recent run at Southwell and the drop back in trip will help here. Also an ease in grade so expected to find this company a lot easier. Often runs well but has become a hard horse to win with."
