A nice TQ 1-2 in the race for the Dave Griffiths yard - great stuff! Original quote: "Pearl Acclaim - Loves the track here and in good order. Can't explain the last run, but seems back on-song and hopeful of putting that last outing behind us. Second runner in the race for us, but also…

Top shout from Gay and another nice TQ View winner this week! Original quote: "Global Academy: A horse we like a fair bit - was a good winner last time at Chelmsford in December and has come on again for that. Had 37 days off to freshen-up and despite being raised 11lbs still think he…

Stayed on really well to land this for the Griffiths camp. Original quote: "Tavener - Needed the run last time after a break - has come on for that and in really good form at home. Good draw in 2 and hopeful of a much better run. Course winner here as well and despite the…

First of two winners on the day for Jamie! Original quote: "Hogan's Height - Won nicely the last day and a reproduction of that would see him go close today, although it'll be tougher with a penalty and up against similar rivals."

Great call from Jamie! Original quote: "Thebannerkingrebel - Goes well at home and knows his job. Tricky to know about the opposition as it's a newcomers race, but we like our chap!"

Ran on well to take third. Original quote: "Shroughmore Lass - Won a weak mares race nicely, but the second that day has been well beaten twice since so the form is a bit suspect. Up 9lbs too and looks a competitive race with likely progressive sorts. More needed, but small each-way chance as track…

Ran on well to take third at 16/1. Original quote: "Mr Scaramanga - Course winner and well at home. A competitive race and yet to win over this 7f trip, but stays further so hoping he'll be staying on at the finish. A nice pot up for grabs so worth a crack and looks to…

Just got pipped on the line, but e/w money still landed. Original quote: "Bridge Of Sighs - Dropped into a class 5 so that helps and well drawn in 1. Top jockey in Oisin Murphy riding and he's won on the horse before. Course winner and stays this 1m trip well so e/w claims again…

Another nice winner from Simon's horse. Original quote: "Dutiful Son - Won two small races here last month and likely to go well again back in this grade. Multiple winning veteran who always runs his race, likely to be involved again."

Ran a blinder at 25/1! Original quote: "Midnight Chill - Is a nice type but it hasn't quite happened for him yet. He has, however, shown glimmers of promise. I think he's going to improve when up in trip on spring ground, but it wouldn't surprise me if he ran well today."

Came with a late run to get the job done on the line........with a bit to spare! Original quote: "Dark Alliance won well at Wolverhampton on Monday and has the benefit of running without a penalty today, so we have to take our chance. It is an additional furlong - however, he does have some…

Nice 10/1 winner, rated 4 stars too! Original quote: "Zayfire Aramis - Competitive race but we head here with fair place claims. Unseated last time at Wincanton, but was in the process of running a big race. Ok after that and had a month to get over it. Will love the ground and off the…

Well-backed and another top run from the in-form Henry Oliver team. Original quote: "Dresden is in good order and the ground should suit him better this time. Back in trip too as not seeing out the longer trips on slow ground. I think he has a decent chance now dropped in grade too. Brian Hughes…

Great shout from Gary! Original quote: "NOT ANOTHER MUDDLE looked to have improved on his hurdling form when winning nicely first time out over fences at Plumpton recently. Have to be cautious though because clearly the favourite that day did not appear to run to his best and the placed horses trailed in. Every chance…

Stayed on really well to take this for Mark and the team! Original quote: "Deeleys Double ran well last time out at Wolverhampton and had to do all the donkey work from the front. We think that the track at Kempton will suit him, so expect another good effort today."

Only just failed, but each-way money landed - 10/1 into 3/1! Original quote: "Megabucks - Ran well to be third last time at Leicester and has come out of that race well - Similar race today and won't mind conditions. Fresh after 5 weeks off so we head here hoping for a good run and…

Couldn't get the lead this time, but different tactics paid off! Original quote: "Something Lucky - Ran well yesterday at Southwell - only got pipped on the line. Has come out of that race well and will make another bold bid from the front. Draw 5 is fine and hoping he can sling-shot around the…

Plugged on well to take third. Original quote: "Viva Verglas - He's a bit of a monkey these days as he gets older, but if putting his best foot forward he can go close in this. We are putting headgear on today to see if that brings improvement, but he's in good form at home…

Broke it's duck for Mick. Original quote: "Epitaph - Looks a tight little race and probably needs to step up a bit on what we've seen of late. Surface is fine, but yet to win from 21 starts so that tells it's own story. Step up to 1m4f a plus and should run his race,…
