Powered away to win this for the Griffiths team. Original quote: "Brother Tiger - Been running really well of late without winning. Dropped a pound from his last run when a close fourth here, while the drop back to 5f is fine. In really good order at home and draw 1 a bonus. Hopeful of…

Great 12/1 winner for Lee and the team! Original quote: "First Experience - Really we've all got Gary's to beat here, but still feel we've got a solid each-way chance. Dropped in class to a 0-60 for the first time will help. Good draw in 2 and Charlie, who claims 3lbs, keeps the ride. CD…

Made it a 1-2 in the race for the TQ yards. Original quote: "Often runs well, but been a frustrating horse to win with - 18 races without a victory now. First-time tongue-tie on today and we get weight all-round, but looks a tough call today in what looks a fairly decent race."

Spot on and another top winner for the in-form Fellowes camp. Original quote: "Carolinae - I think these conditions today are perfect for this horse. She will love the track and the 7f is also spot-on for her. There also seems to be plenty of pace in the race which will suit, so hopeful of…

Great call from Suzy! Original quote: "Rosy World - Working well and out of a very good mare we trained. Her full sister was second in this race last year. Has a high crusing speed and acts on soft ground. Obviously a couple of good ones in here but we rate this mare despite being…

Another nice success for the in-fomr Tim Vaughan camp. Original quote: "Point Of Principle - Decent sort. Looks between the first three in the betting, but I'd not be surprised if our horse was capable of mixing it up with them. Yes, has a bit to find at the weights, but will love the ground…

Did enough to land the prize for Mick and the team. Original quote: "Beyeh - Ran well last time here over 2m4f - just got a bit tired in the closing stages so that's why we are back in trip here (2m). Down a few pounds for that too and Jack carries on in the…

Stayed on really well to take this. Original quote: "Twenty Eight Guns - Has been paying the price for a good time of it last season. Back to her last winning mark now though and back in grade is more realistic for her. Trip and ground will be fine, plus sports the cheekpieces for the…

E/W monday landed!! Original quote: "Pour L'Amour hasn't quite show the level of form that she had last year, but is working well at home. She has never tried Lingfield before, so the track is an unknown but she is a very genuine filly so hopefully it won't inconvenience her. If they go a strong…

Great winner for Mark and the team! Original quote: "Big Lachie was unlucky in running last time out, but unfortunatley seems to run better when coming off the pace, so we have to always hope for a bit of luck in running! Ben Curtis couldn't ride today, so Andrew Mullen is on board & he…

Great call from Tim! Original quote: "Tanit River - Been very disappointing since winning last January. Nothing much has come to light so we've given him 6 weeks to freshen up again and he's also dropping to a very decent mark. Is now 4lbs lower than last win and we get weight from all-bar-one of…

Well-backed and after not messing up the start this time - came home with 1 1/4 lengths to spare. Original quote: "Win Lose Draw - Fluffed the start last time so needs to sort that out. We've done some work with him on that front and being he's not done it before we are hoping…

Only touched off in the closing stages. Original quote: "Cockney Boy - Got off the mark two runs ago at Wolves with the blinkers on for the first time. Failed to build on that last time (8th of 13) off a 5lb higher mark and hung a bit left under pressure that day. Out again…

A much better run from Mick's horse - one to note for next time. Original quote: "Third run for us and so far not shown a great deal. Found things happening a bit too quick last time over a mile so the step up to 1m5f will help. Has run well for previous trainers over…

A nice debut run for Jane. Original quote: "Ambient: Looks a tough race with the favourite - Beautiful Memory - having won by 7 lengths last time. He is a new horse to the yard (was with Roger Varian), but has trained well so hoping for an e/w chance here - will certainly like the…

No chance with the winner, but plugged on well to take second at 9/1 Original quote: "The Green Ogre - Ran a better race last time, when 5th of 12 at Newbury. This race has been a target for a while. I think this looks like the right race and should be easier than he…

An easy win for Mick's 4 year-old. Original quote: "Azam - Has run well the last twice, without winning. Down a pound for the last of those, but stayed on really well over 1m3f last time which is why we are stepping up to 2m here. Tried this trip three starts ago (7th) but we…

Great win in this lucrative Dubai race for Charlie and the team - and another TQ View winner. Original quote: "Prince Of Arran - We were only 3/4 of a length behind Los Barbados last time here over 1m6f - ran a huge race that day. We are 2lbs better off with that horse now.…

No chance with the easy winner, but another solid e/w run at 12/1. Original quote: "Brigadoon - Back to somewhere near his best last time when second here to an improving sort. Not getting any younger at 11, but that last run was a clear indication that he still enjoys his racing. Same mark here,…

Another solid run from Mick's consistent sprinter. Original quote: "Something Lucky: Been a busy horse of late - winning three of his last 4 starts. Recent third was franked with the winner - Archimedes - going in at Southwell yesterday. We get in off the same mark here, but in a better race this means…
