Showed a great turn of foot to take this. Original quote: "Takeonefortheteam's sole win came at Kempton and he is running off 1lb lower today. He has been knocking on the door most of the year but just needs a bit of luck in-running with his run style. If he gets this from draw 8…

Nice run from Oliver's horse. Original quote: "Pontresina has had a year off after picking up a minor tendon injury on his last outing at Wincanton when finishing second. Pontresina is a consistent horse, a very good jumper and as honest as the day is long. He’s as fit as I can get him but…

Got the hang of things late - as Gary said, a horse they like and certainly one to watch. Original quote: "Back on the track after a long break. Can see him becoming a nice horse but probably best watched today."

Place money landed for Charlie and the team. Original quote: "Circle Of Stars- - Ran well over course and distance a few weeks ago and this race looks weaker. We have to turn the form around with the second that day - Forbidden Dance - but we have a better draw (5) and based on…

Ran on well to take third. Original quote: "Miss Gargar - Been running well at the course and won here over 6f back in Aug - back down to 5f here should be fine as shows plenty of pace, but just feel the wide draw (9) today makes life harder. 1 1/2  stars."

Solid run from Gary's horse. Original quote: "Ragstone Cowboy - Didn't seem happy on the AWT last time. Hopefully he will be more at home back on the grass and if he copes with the heavy ground, should see him back to running a good race again. Looks a nice each-way price. "

Arrrggghh - got chinned on the line but e/w money still landed. Original quote: "Robero - Took a bit of a hold last time at Newcastle so can ignore that run. Well-drawn in stall 2 here today and the return to Wolverhampton is a positive. Running off the same mark as when a close second…

Top effort from Jamie's horse and certainly one to note as the season moves on. Original quote: "Alrightjack - Very competitive but would be a surprise on his first run back. A nice horse that did well last season finihsing in the top 2 in 4 of his 5 hurdles starts. Is still only 5years-old…

Cracking effort in this Grade 2 from Jamie's improving hurdler. Original quote: "Some Day Soon - Has won his last 4 novice hurdles thought the summer. He won well last time out at Startford, where he gave Ruthless Article weight and a beating so he deserves to take his place in this Grade 2. The…

Great winner for Scott. Original quote: "Samovar - Struggled a bit in last three runs - two of them here on the fibresand. Has dropped to a mark of 70 though and last win here was only a few pounds lower. The drop back into a Class 5 will also help as been running in…

Travelled well and in an eventful race won with a bit in-hand. Original quote: "Cap St Vincent - Did well for us last season - winning twice over fences and ended with a fair third in a nice race at Sandown. Has got stronger over the summer and looking forward to getting going with him…

Great 16/1 winner for Lee. Original quote: "Terri Rules - The draw beat her last time out at Chelmsford but actually still did okay to be 5th and only beaten 2 1/2 lengths. Same mark here today and draw 9 okay as hold-up performer. Will need the breaks to come but been running well without…

Plugged on well to take third. Original quote: "Moxy Mares has most of his strongest form on soft ground, although this might be even softer than he would like! He has a lot of weight in the line up, so we have offset 5lbs with Kevin's claim, which should help especially in the ground. If…

Top winner for Charlie and the team. Original quote: "King Carney - Ran well at Newcastle (2nd) but bumped into a good horse. The step up to a mile should suit and he will have no problem with the ground. Hopefully he can put his experience to good use. Each-way."

Travelled well and another solid run from Gary's horse - a winner waiting to happen. Original quote: "Not difficult to make a case for BRAMBLEDOWN who delighted me with her second at Plumpton just over two weeks ago on her hurdling debut. BRAMBLEDOWN was fit from a flat campaign over the summer and she came…

Ran on well to be a close third and land the e/w money. Original quote: "Red Gunner has ran a few solid races on the fast ground over the summer and remains in good heart at home. He hasn't tried the 1m2f trip on the AW, but it should suit him from his run on…

Plugged on well to land the e/w money. Original quote: "Anglo Saxson - Has improved with every race to date and went so close to winning at Yarmouth last time out. He has run well at this track before and a mark of 75 in this handicap for the first time seems like a fair…

Travelled well for much of the race and looks one to note. Original quote: "Between The Waters - Won a couple of races earlier this summer and was competing well off this kind of mark - but has disappointed the last twice. Back in calmer waters here and Ben takes off a handy 10lbs too…

Solid run from Tim's horse. Original quote: "Wax And Wane - Has some fair flat form to his name and despite not running as well on hurdles debut at Warwick last December is better than that. That was only his first run for us but we've given him plenty of time since and feel we…

Top winner for Daniel and the team. Original quote: "Chamomile - Step up in trip should suit and the drop in grade will help too. Didn't get much luck in her novice races so hoping that has worked out with a lenient mark here on handicap debut."
