Top run from Julia's horse and a cracking TQ 1-2 in the race. Original quote: "Gas Monkey - Is our best chance of the day - he has been a little unlucky in-running in his last two races. He looks well-handicapped and the ease in ground will suit him. We hope we have found the…

Tight one - but Mick at least gave us the winner too! Original quote: "Slipstream - Down the field last time out at Kempton on the AW but that was his first run on an AW surface so was a bit of an unknown. Returns to the turf today and based on his three previous…

Great winner for Mick and a TQ 1-2 in the race too! Original quote: "Debatable - Not a great race and last run was a step in the right direction - 6th of 12. Drop in trip is fine here and hung a bit left that day but here at Yarmouth that might not be…

Only went down a head - will be winning again soon! Original quote: "BARON ALCO seldom runs a bad race running with consistency at every level. Has had time off after picking up an injury when second at the Cheltenham Festival in 2016. Possible that BARON ALCO will need the race but he has done…

Gutsy effort from the front - will be winning before too long. Original quote: "Double Treasure - Has won 6 of his last 8 races and is a course winner here too. He's the highest-rated of these so looks to have a good chance, albeit in a seriously competitive race. Wouldn't want it too soft…

Solid run from Tim's horse - should have a big season ahead. Original quote: "Debece fell last time out at Haydock back in May but ran a blinder before that at Aintree when 4th in a decent race. We are over fences for the first time but has schooled well ahead of this and we…

Top first run back from Gary's horse - sure to be winning soon. Original quote: "Traffic Fluide - Ended last season well with two nice wins. Has done well over the sumer but returns on a 7lb higher mark. Has been working well enough and still looks well-handicapped on old form as rated in the…

Solid first run back from Tim's horse. Original quote: "Point Of Principle - Second runner in the race for us and looks to have a similar chance. Did well last season and is returning here after a 6 month break. Has been doing plenty at home though so heads here fit and well. Conditions are…

Solid e/w run from Mick's horse. Original quote: "Jack Nevison - Course winner but not been firing of late. Stays further than this 6f trip too with only career win coming over 7f. We'll be hoping to make full use of that stamina. Hard horse to win with but often never far away in his…

Top effort from Jane's horse. Original quote: "Juan Horsepower - Bit to prove at the moment - 2lbs lower that last time helps and if finding some old sparkle is certainly looking well-handicapped with his last win off 80 (now 58). Small place claims as needs to bounce back but actually not been beaten too…

Nice run from Harry's horse. Original quote: "Pact Of Steel - Put a line through last run as got trapped out wide and lost all chance - is better than that. Won well the time before at Lingfield and on that running we'd have a better chance. 5lbs higher than that win but we are…

A decent day for Suzy. Original quote: "Clondaw Bisto - Been working nicely and schooling well over fences at home. Rain that's coming is a plus - will hopefully find things easier over fences and enjoy it a bit more. Hopeful of a positive performance."

Top call from Suzy. Original quote: "Clondaw Cian - Goes best fresh and mark not totally beyond him but will still have to run to his very best to take this. Rain a plus and has run well at the track before too - hopefully will enjoy going back over the smaller obstacles as well.…

Solid run and should be winning before too long. Original quote: "It's Got Legs - Returns from a 5 month break but been doing well at home. Going the right way but just feel on this return run he might have it to do to beat those at the head of the market who look…

Top effort from Mick's horse. Original quote: "Classic Pursuit - Got put up a fair bit by the handicapper after a string of wins during the summer and struggled a bit since. Still 4lbs higher than last winning mark but the drop in grade here will help after running down the field in the Silver…

Much better from Gary's horse. Original quote: "Hard to make big conclusions about Clearance. Seems to go well and hopefully the drop back in distance will help - we'll learn more today but hopeful of a step in the right direction."

Great winner for Lee! Original quote: "Ross Raith Rover - A fair fifth last time out (from a bad draw) at Lingfield and off a pound lower then a repeat of that would see him go close. Paddy rides again and claims 5lbs too. Only small niggle is that he might have run on through…

Solid run from Charlie's horse. Original quote: "Isango - Nice sort that is getting better with each race. A fair third at Yarmouth last time to a horse that is meant to be useful and running at Newmarket in the next few days in a much better race. Drawn well in 1 and with the…

Great winner for Oliver and the team. Original quote: "The Groovy Hoovy - was disappointing on his last run and hopefully he will put that behind him. He has been in good form at home and I think the track will suit him. He will undoubtedly come on for the run today."

A much better run from Tim's horse. Original quote: "Kovera - Winning pointer but still to win under rules from 11 starts. Only second run over fences though so hoping there is more to come over the bigger obstacles and this doesn't look a great race. Light weight and the horses are running well so…
