Ran on well - no chance with the winner but going the right way so one to watch next time. Original quote: "Another Theatre - Ran okay the last day - would need to step up to figure though and really best-watched until the horse gets more of a trip and there is more cut…

Loved the longer trip and another nice TQ View winner this month! Original quote: "Cheque En Blanc - Disappointing first run back but is better than that and that came over a trip on the sharp side. Up in distance this time will help and hopefully he can put that behind him today - seems…

Held on well to land the money for the Moore team. Original quote: "TAZKA put in a pleasing performance at Kempton recently but she pulled rather too much which did not help her cause. The slightly further distance will probably actually suit TAZKA better as long as she settles today which she should after that…

Landed third for Gay. Original quote: "Stosur - Dropping down the ratings a bit and only a pound higher than last win so a chance based on that. Luke a plus in the saddle but does need to bounce back from two below-par recent runs. Had a small break though and seems better for it.…

No chance with the winner but a better run from stall 11. Original quote: "Tan - Lost his way a bit after winning three back in May and June. Still a bit to prove off this mark but has actually not been getting beaten far in recent races - better than the form figures next…

Promising effort from Oliver's horse. Original quote: "Sam was purchased by Tim Syder after finishing second in a point to point in Ireland. Sam didn’t initially show us a lot at home and he’s still not flash in his work but he has improved with every schooling session and every gallop and I think he’ll…

A deserved win for Henry's horse. Original quote: "Darlyn - Seems to have a habit of coming fourth at the mo - last seen here back in July when coming - you guessed it - 4th! Has been in good form at home though and is 3lbs lower this time. Not a great race and…

Went down a neck - but still a great effort! Original quote: "Big Country - Lincoln winner - Addeybb sets the standard but I think it's his first run on the AW so that gives us a bit of hope. BC is a tough customer though and has already had another top year. First run…

Top winner at 16/1 for Mick. Original quote: "Hakam - Nice prize on offer here for the time of year. We weren't beaten far last time (4th of 14) at Newcastle and get in here off the same mark. Stepping up from 6f to 1m here though but only two tries over the trip (when…

Cracking win for Gary's horse. Original quote: "This race has been the target for BARON ALCO who has put in solid performances around here. Ground a slight worry as it is looking quicker than the going suggests - however, I hope to see BARON ALCO hopefully back to his best which should give him solid…

Spot-on from Scu - an easy win! Original quote: "Dawnieriver - Three runners and we've got two of them! Should have a great chance and ran much better last time when second at Uttoxeter. Ground should be fine for her but not sure it will suit the others as well. Always a bit tricky with…

Great effort from Jamie's horse over the Cross Country fences. Original quote: "Fact Of The Matter - Is a decent staying chaser. He's schooled over these Cross Country fences recently and sometimes this course brings about improvement in a horse. He's obviously going to have to improve in a hot race but he'd have place…

Held on gamely. Original quote: "Kovera - Jumped well from the front last time at Sedgefield and being back over hurdles escapes a penalty for that. Same mark but lower grade so a lot going for us and with the horse taking his racing well at the moment then another bold bid from the front…

Nice call from Scott. Original quote: "Dories Delight - Fourth run - has shown promise from her three starts when with the Kirk yard. First run for us but has done well and can't be ruled out. Should have more to come in the first-time cheekpieces. Each-way."

Great effort from Tim's horse. Original quote: "Cap St Vincent - Pleasing first run back when third of 14 at Southwell. Has come out of that race well and has now finished third from his two runs over fences. Conditions are fine again for him here and running off the same mark. The Hobbs and…

Easy win for Mick's horse. Original quote: "Lads Order - Only had four career runs. First run for the yard though but has done well since joining and nice to get him going on the AW. A few unknowns to overcome but the horse is well and with only 8-3 to carry has a very…

Another placed finish here! Original quote: "Something Lucky - Second runner in the race for us - rose up the ranks last season with many consistent efforts and after 3 months off is ready to rumble again. Career-best needed off this mark with last win coming off 3lbs lower but takes his racing well and…

Much better run from Scott's horse. Original quote: "Boots And Spurs - On a bit of a losing run but as a result is dropping down the ratings. Loves the track and surace and is well after a month off. Very well handicapped so could be dangerous - especially with Theo taking off 5lbs too.…

Went down a neck - solid effort. Original quote: "Fieldsman - Been running really well of late - another good effort last time and loves the track here too. Jockey - Tom Marquand - a plus in the saddle and the trip is fine. Confident of another decent run and should be knocking at the…

Much better from Scott's horse. Original quote: "Break The Silence - Likes to get on with things and that will be the plan again here. Course winner so the track is fine and trying him in the blinkers for the first time too. Does, however, need to bounce back from a poor last run here…
