A much better run from Scott's horse. Original quote: "Chica Da Silva - First run in a handicap today with this being her fourth career run. Should find life a bit easier now and we get in here with bottom weight of just 8-5. Well drawn in 3 too but does need to learn to…

Nice call from Simon. Original quote: "Prince Rock - Disappointing gelding with just the occasional glimmer of hope. Sprinting not sure to suit but can take his chance in a low grade event and he should at least be finishing off at a big price."

Much better - As Charlie said. Original quote: "Carnwennan - Was very green first time out but seems to have sharpened-up significantly for that race. I would rather he was running on turf but he needs the experience. He will run better than his debut outing. SDS rides."

Make that four on the day for Mick!! Original quote: "Classic Pursuit - Much better the last twice and running off the same mark again here. Another of ours that SDS rides today and this horse's last win came with him riding. Back down to last winning mark too, while any rain will help. Open…

A welcome winner for the Gay Kelleway yard. Original quote: "Yet to win but only had 7 runs so more to come. First run on an AW surface but likes it quick on the turf so expected to suit. Looks a very poor race and mark has dropped to 48 so looking dangerous. Really we'd…

Just had enough to land the spoils! Original quote: "Onefootinfront - Got back to winning ways last time here and a 4lb rise for that seems fair. Seemed to enjoy the step up to 1m6f that day so we know the trip suits and we are actually the only course and distance winner in the…

That's three on the day for Mick!! Original quote: "Future Score - Former Godolphin horse that is having his first run for us here today. We've not had the horse long but has only had a few outings so should be more to come. Well-bred that might want a bit further in time but this…

Second winner on the day for the Appleby team! Original quote: "Big Country - Another Touch won this race 12 months ago so has to be feared. But a cracking pot up for grabs and we are actually the joint-highest rated in the field. Gabr is the other top-rated and being a 3 year-old we…

A much-deserved win for Mick's runner. Original quote: "Michele Strogoff - After a string of seconds certainly deserves to get his head in front. Has run ok at the track before and this step back up to 1m2f is fine. SDS takes over in the saddle so despite creeping up the handicap without winning is…

The in-form Harry Dunlop yard fire in another top winner. Original quote: "Goldino Bello - Promising debut run at Ascot when 7th of 11. Has come out of that race well but after getting tired in the closing stages the drop back to 6f here is a big plus. Ground is fine and with the…

Great ride and a top win for Scott's horse. Original quote: "Penny Dreadful - Dropped into a Class 6 here and that should give us a leading chance. As we all know, likes to blast out and make all so the quick ground will help and starting to look well-handicapped with last win coming off…

Stayed on well to take third and the e/w money. Original quote: "Lady Alavesa - Consistent horse that has run well this season without winning. Down a few pounds from her last run and remains running against her own sex. Conditions are fine too. The horses seem to be getting place a lot at the…

Top winner for Gary and the team. Original quote: "Lord Clenaghcastle - Has been too keen early on but hopefully he'll settle more today over this longer trip (1m) and give a better showing of himself. The in-form Duke Of North looks the clear one to beat. "

Great shout at 25/1 from Harry. Original quote: "Jackfinbar - Might turn into a trappy little race with only 5 runners. Our colt ran well over in France last time - beaten just a short-head over 1m4f, but ran as is this step up to 1m6f will suit. Jim Crowley a plus in the saddle…

Did well from a bad draw - one to watch next time! Original quote: "Outrage - Will appreciate the ease in grade and has come forward with each run this season when running in much better races. The draw out in stall eight is not ideal as historically there has been a strong bias towards…

Only just failed by a neck for Gary and the team, but still a top run. Original quote: "Light Of Air - Has been running reasonably well of late. Has Begun to drop down the weights and should have strong e/w claims here today."

Great front-running performance from the front form Mick's horse. Original quote: "Eponina - Very trappy little race with only 3 runners. Our horse is better than what she showed last time here after running far too freely and using up too much in the early stages. Same mark but we put a 7lb claimer on…

Each-way money landed. Original quote: "Pour L'Amour has been ultra consistent and we can see no reason why she shouldn't get involved again today. She was left too much to do when she last ran up in Musselburgh, but Andrew Mullen knows her better now so with all conditions suitable today we hope that she…

Help on well to land the spoils. Original quote: "Channel Packet - Yet to win a race from 11 starts but has hit the crossbar a few times. Handles this quick ground well and racing off a career-low mark, plus we are dropped in grade. Not a great race and certainly one of the more…

Solid each-way run. Original quote: "Jack Nevison - Likes to race up with the pace and that will be the plan again here from stall 5. Is much better for a recent run at the track after 3 months off and also weighted to go well off a 2lbs lower mark and back down to…
