Fair e/w run from Gary's horse. Original quote: "ZANTE is yet to show he has retained some ability after a spell on the sidelines but having had a couple of recent runs he might strip fitter and this trip just could be more to his liking. Likes things to go his own way so I…

Solid effort agan from Tim's improving hurdler. Original quote: "Tight Call - Very competitive race but has done well this season so far with a few wins and a close second to an improving sort last time. Into a handicap for the first time here and looks a race with many chances, but he's a…

Much better effort than last time. Original quote: "For whatever reason CHEQUE EN BLANC did not run to his best following his win at Plumpton (nothing came to light). Hopefully been freshened up enough at home to come here today with stronger claims."

Nice e/w effort. Original quote: "Working Class was merited the race last time at Fakenham. He can be keen in his races but he did run well last time and I think he's getting the hang of things now. We are hopeful of a positive run."

Quick double at the track for Gary. Original quote: "LARRY took a tumble last time out but I don't think it has dented his confidence. Larry had been showing consistency with his runs and all being well should have strong claims today."

Gutsy effort from the front from Gary's horse. Original quote: "DAREBIN has won here at Sandown and generally performs consistently well. Off a low weight today which will help as he is not very big and with only 4 runners it could develop into a tactical affair. I think the race looks very open with…

Solid e/w run from Gary's horse. Original quote: "EAST INDIES ran ok last time at Lingfield but it remains to be seen whether he will build on that. Has won here at Kempton albeit early in his career so this is certainly not beyond him today."

Promising debut run from Simon's horse. Original quote: "Pacificadora - Rangy filly with scope who trains well. Well bred and has plenty of experience so could easily go well at a big price on her debut."

An step forward for Gay's horse. Original quote: "Bolt N Brown - Going the right way after an improved 4th last time out at Newcastle - but only third career run her. Step up in trip should help and Toby takes off 7lbs too. Should take a step forward but likely to be better once…

Looks one to note next time. Original quote: "Don't Do It - Nice draw in 1 - only third career run for us but found 7f a tad on the sharp side last time so the return to a longer trip will suit. Weighted to go well and in an open race certainly feel we've…

The switch to fences clearly did the trick! Original quote: "WAIKIKI WAVES can throw in a bad round but I am hoping that the switch to fences may be the making of him. Hard to tell so I would advise best watched today and I would be pleased to see a decent round from him."

Great call from Charlie. Original quote: "Chiefofchiefs - Shot up the ranks over the last few seasons. Had another busy time during the first half of the flat turf season but is well for a break. Returns after 6 months off but is a past CD winner here and delighted to get going with him…

An improved run from Lee's horse. Original quote: "The Warrior - A fair eighth last time out at Lingfield but got a bit checked in his run so could have been a bit better. Down in grade here helps but one of those races that if you run 10 times would probably get 10 different…

Nice 25/1 winner for Oliver. Original quote: "Geordielad - We thought we'd give him a spin on the flat just to do something a little different. He has always worked well at home and he most certainly works better than his official rating. This is very much a look and learn and it would be…

Ran well to take third for Mick. Original quote: "Queens Royale - Open race for the grade but we are one of just a few proven CD winners. Is better for last run as that came off a small break and looking well handicapped at the moment with last win here at the track coming…

Spot-on from Gary. Original quote: "Trappy contest but LE PRECIEUX is well and heads here full of confidence after easy wins on the flat and over fences. Up 7lbs for his last win but in this better race gets in with just 10-8 to carry. More needed in this company but should be more to…

Plugged on well to take third. Original quote: "Chase End Charlie - Much better effort last time when second at Market Rasen - only a pound higher this time and same grade. We are , however, up in trip here from 2m4f to 3m1f but stayed on well enough in the closing stages to suggest…

Stayed on well to win this trappy race. Original quote: "Moonraker - Capable but not always the most reliable - not far back the last twice and dropped a pound for the last of those here. Luke takes over in the saddle and with the horse back down to his last winning mark then must…

Placed at 8/1 for e/w backers. Original quote: "Midnight Queen - Won two of her last four, including last time out at Fakenham - up 7lbs for that but the visor worked well that day and remains on again here. Would probably not want the ground to get much softer but has been freshened up…

Plugged on well to take third. Original quote: "Tara Mac - Returns from around a month off. 8lbs higher than when winning well at Worcester in September and not getting anyyounger at 10. Would require a career-best off this mark but is well at home and we are trying the visor for the first time…
