Another top front-running effort from Scott's horse. Original quote: "Penny Dreadful - Draw 3 is a big plus as we all know this horse likes to get on with the job. Down a few pounds from her last run at Southwell, but the return to Chelmsford will help. Often runs well here and starting to…

Mick's horse had just about enough in-hand to take this. Original quote: "Shamrokh - Been knocking on the door with two good runs of late, including a close third here over 1m2f. Same mark, but the drop in trip and grade, plus the jockey claiming 5lbs this time give us a much better chance. Several…

Top run from Suzy's 5 year-old - one to look out for. Original quote: "Dubai Dirham - Possibly used the wrong tactics on her last time and will be trying something different today. Works well enough at home to suggest that it wasn't her true showing last time and hope we see something more encouraging…

Dubai Dirham - Possibly used the wrong tactics on her last time and will be trying something different today. Works well enough at home to suggest that it wasn't her true showing last time and hope we see something more encouraging from her today. Tricky race to call with so many being lightly-raced, but hopeful…

Great call from Scu! Original quote: "Cadeyrn - Donna's Delight and Bob Maher are dangers, but our horse heads here with a decent chance too. Ran well for much of the way last time at Chepstow - a running on fourth. Has come out of that race well and the longer trip this time is…

Nice call from Charlie at 8/1 to be a close 2nd. Original quote: "Carolinae - Has come on nicely for her previous run. We know conditions will suit her and she should run well in what looks a very interesting race."

Third winner on the card from the Gary Moore camp. Original quote: "Argyle - Big weight (12-2) in a competitive race but shows fair ability, track & trip suits and could have a reasonable chance today with William's 10lb claim helping on the weight front."

Great ride from the front from Josh Moore. Original quote: "Leo Luna - Finished fourth here last time out over 3½m. Has his fair share of weight (12-2) but the drop in grade should give him reasonable chances - hoping for a solid run."

Another nice recruit for the Moore's! Original quote: "Distingo - Had plenty of experience running in France. First run in this country and 5th run over hurdles. Shows fair ability at home and hopefully he can put that to good use today. A race with little depth so we are hoping to be in the…

Another top call from Henry. Original quote: "Sparkling River - Very trappy little race but we head here with a decent chance. River is in good heart and acts well on the ground. Slight step up in trip should suit and this is expected to be a bit easier than her last outing at Cheltenham…

A nice run from Mark's horse and he even gave you the 1st and 2nd! Original quote: "Takeonefortheteam - The Eddery and Simcock horses look the dangers, but we head here with a decent chance too. Ran well last time for this rider - claims 7lbs - at Wolves when a close second. Up 4lbs…

Landed the e/w money. Original quote: "Pastoral's Dreams - The yard's horses remain in decent form. Steadily getting the hang of things in 2 starts and staying on quite nicely last time without ever looking like he could take a hand. Has handicap options after today and will stay further in time but training well and…

Cracking call from Julia - 2nd at 33/1!! Original quote: "Oud Metha Bridge - Is a lovely horse that we bought in October. His work at home is very good and the wide draw (12) will suit his style of running. He has a good each-way chance at a very good price. Shelley rides and…

Another winner for the in-form Dow camp. Original quote: "Sparkalot - Smart colt who returned here a few weeks ago after a small setback, has good form at this track and trip and one to keep on the right side of. Drawn wide (10) yet again but not easily discounted if he gets a good…

Nice e/w call from Mick. Original quote: "Bertie Moon - Ran ok the other day to be fourth of 8, but was a fair way back in the end. Didn't quite stay that 2m trip so the return to 1m4f is certainly in his favour. Down a few pounds here too and the jockey claims…

Solid e/w call from Mark. Original quote: "Lord Murphy has been a little bit inconsistent this winter, although his last run is possible slightly better than the bare result as he didn't get much luck in running. We are trying a hood on him for the first time today to see if it will help…

An easy win for Gary's horse. Original quote: "AGE OF WISDOM failed to handle the gound conditions at Plumpton on his hurdling debut so until we see better ground reverting back to the flat. I would expect to see AGE OF WISDOM take this today as he is fit enough and having had a spin…

Each-way money landed. Original quote: "LARRY has run some sound races having won a bumper and placed at Plumpton over similar trip. May have to up his game to figure in this but I am confident he can give a good account of himself and again place claims"

Stayed on well after a blunder for the Moore camp. Original quote: "AR MEST will hopefully by now have benefited from racecourse experience and I would like to think that he can put on a better display today. I would be pleased to see AR MEST placed as I suspect THE BLUES MASTER  may take…
