Great winner for Julia. Original quote: "Casey Banter - Generally runs well here - she missed the break the last run and was given too much to do, but still ran well. We still have a bit to find to beat Nicky Baby but hopefully the 7lb claim will help again and she can have…

A cracking treble on the day for Jamie. Original quote: "Our Reward - Is a consistent chap. He won well at Fakenham last autumn and was quite harshly treated on the back of that. With Ben taking 10lbs off today he should run his race again."

Another winner on the day for Jamie. Original quote: "Adrrastos - Tight little 3 horse race. Won well having had two years off the track and ran well enough in a grade 3 at Aintree and in a class 2 at Kempton last time out. Down in Class here - he shouldn't be far away."

Nice winner for Oliver Sherwood. Original quote: "Cervaro Mix - Alan - as he's known at home - has plenty of ability but he does need to learn to relax more in his races. He won a small field race at Southwell last time out and he only encounters three other runners today which isn’t…

Easy winner for Jamie and the team. Original quote: "Some Day Soon - We look to have the Murphy horse to beat, but feel we've got a leading chance. Some Day Soon is a lovely type. He didn't do much wrong when finishing 2nd a few time last season to some very good horses -…

Top 1-2 in this race - great run from Scott's horse. Original quote: "Dark Shot - Going great guns this season so far - with two solid runs. We've 2 lengths to find with Copper Knight based on his last run but we've a nice weight pull this time. Track, trip and ground are fine…

Solid run from Oliver's horse. Original quote: "Pebbly New Moon - Charlie - as he's known at home - is extremely laid back at home. He has a wonderful temperament and even though he’s done plenty of work there will be a lot of improvement in him mentally. If there is any doubt about the…

Did well considering the ground. Original quote: "Master Dancer - Second runner in the race for us - similar chance too. Fit from the flat and only second run back after a wind op. Got hammered a bit for winning well at Cheltenham back in 2017 and is still 6lbs higher than that win. On…

Top winner for Jamie. Original quote: "Chapmanshype - Has shown ability in a brace of Novice hurdles this Spring and looks to be off an interesting mark if able to overcome his inexperience."

Easy win for Oliver's horse. Original quote: "West Coast Flyer - Ran  well first time out over hurdles at Kempton (4th), his jumping could be slicker and he was quite keen early on but it was a good starting point, for sure. I think this track will suit him more this time but he is…

Solid run from Tim's horse. Original quote: "Boethius - Has improved for his run last time out at Warwick when 5th of 11 - that came off a 250 day break.  Weighted to go close and loves the quicker ground so even though our second runner in the race certainly not without a chance too…

Each-way money landed. Original quote: "Sands Chorus - Ran well last time at Beverley - second. Same mark today and has come out of that race well. Might need a bit of luck from draw 8 but hoping over this 1m2f trip he'll be okay as likes to get on with things so the plan…

It doesn't get much better than that - 16/1 TQ View winner. Original quote: "Duke Of Firenze - Won last Saturday for us and has come out of that race very well - up just 3lbs. He's in really good order and loves it here at York. Perfect conditions too so confident of another big…

Great winner for Gary and the team. Original quote: "Age Of Wisdom - Quirky horse and form on the all weather more consistent than on grass. Fit from a mixed campaign in the spring including a win and place over hurdles. Inconsistency bothers me but could still have solid place claims."

Spot on from Gary. Original quote: "Clara Peeters - First run for a while and I hope to see that CLARA PEETERS has possibly progressed after a break. Still probably best-watched in terms of winning, however she could run well being fresh. Jim Crowley rides."

Solid run from Gary's horse. Original quote: "Luxford - First run this season for Luxford. The horse is working very well at home and the only slight concern is the draw (13). If she can overcome that, should have a good e/w chance."

Solid run from Gay's horse. Original quote: "Robero - In good form at home and weighted to go close in this claiming stakes - we are the top-rated in the field. Only slight niggle is that is the ground gets too firm. Place chance."

Much better run from Tim's horse. One to follow next time. Original quote: "Lauberhorn Rocket - Second runner in the race for us - did better last time at Wolves when 4th of 12 and off a pound lower then every reason to think he can have an each-way chance again over the same trip.…

Won with a bit more to spare - top call from James. Original quote: "Croeso Cymraeg - Went home for a month after last run. May need the run today but could be good enough anyway. Seems in good order at home and if settling and getting the run of the race should be thereabouts…

Nice winner for Henry and the team. Original quote: "Killaro Boy - First run for us after coming over from Ireland - has settled in well and hoping we've found a good starting point for him. Ground perfect and fair form over in Ireland suggests he'd go well in a race like this - probably…
