Top win for Henry. Original quote: "Arthur Mac - A horse we like a lot - won well at Catterick two runs back and wasn't disgraced when second at Newcastle last time - the winner looks useful. Slight drop back in trip from that last run will help and Jason is on this time to…

Top effort and set to go onto bigger and better things. Original quote: "Papagana has improved with each run this season (apart from when she was nearly wiped out at Market Rasen) she is very brave and she stays well. She picked up her black type last time out when finishing third in a Listed…

Second winner on the day for Oliver. Original quote: "Flash - as he's known at home - has run well in all of his races so far, he’s been a consistent horse who has given his first time owners (Sue & Joe Norman) a lot of fun. He looked the likely winner last time out…

Cracking call from Tim. Original quote: "Copper Gone West - Won well last time out at Musselburgh - has come out of that race well and should have more to offer. Harder race and against the boys here to makes life harder. But only had three runs under rules and going the right way. Conditions…

Much better run from Tim's horse. Original quote: "Evas Oskar - Only had four career runs and not shown much so far - but into a handicap for the first time here today and that will certainly help. We'll know more were we are after this but the ground is fine and the step up…

Another solid each-way run from Jane's horse. Original quote: "Ambient - Not the best of draws in 10, but super consistent - without winning, as I've said before. But new owners so hoping he runs well for them with place claims again here in an open race."

Another top win for the Henry Oliver yard. Original quote: "Hijran - Has a chance again today - delighted with her win at Kempton last time out and even though up 7lbs for that we still think she's improving. Jason rode last time and continues in the saddle, plus these conditions will suit. 3 or…

Great run from Gary's horse - one to note next time! Original quote: "Ahfad - Nice draw in 7. A tricky race - with many chances - but surely must have decent e/w chances if building slightly on his last effort when fourth."

Lost out by just a neck but still a solid run from Jamie's horse. Original quote: "Thistle Do Nicely - Has done little wrong this season - winning two novice hurdles with his head in his chest. He was fourth in a Grade Two on unsuitably soft ground and was second under a double penalty.…

No chance with the first two but plugged on well for third - a step back in the right direction. Original quote: "Best watched on flat debut. ET MOI ALORS needs a confidence boost and I am hoping a spin around Kempton may help his cause. Shows speed at home - however, this is a…

Another easy win for Gay's horse at Southwell. Original quote: "Purple Rock - Won well last time out and is a proven course and distance winner. Up 3lbs for that and has come out of the race well enough to suggest he can go close again here. Danny Muscutt keeps the ride."

Easy winner for Tim and the team! Original quote: "Landsman - Hoping we've found a good opportunity here to get off the mark over hurdles. Former Tony Martin runner that was third on debut for us earlier this month at Huntingdon. This race looks easier than last time and after returning from a 5 month…

Just enough juice in the ground - looks one to follow in that form. Original quote: "Gleno - Won his bumper last year on heavy ground and has not figured much in his novice hurdle races. More chances now qualified for handicaps, but I have slight ground concerns that conditions may be quick enough today. "

Easy win for Henry's charge. Looks set for bigger and better things. Original quote: "Louis Vac Pouch - Very useful sort and a nice recruit to the yard. Had his issues but delighted with his win on stable debut last time out - travelled and jumped really well that day at Ludlow and has come…

Left in the front when Tim's fell two out - but still got the job done in style. Original quote: "Hogans Height - Was a decent Novice Chaser last season and won his Novice Hurdle at Catterick last time out, so running here again a plus. Will appreciate this step up in trip and looks…

Jumped well and stayed on really well to grab her first career win. Original quote: "Northern Beau - Decent and consistent mare that was second last time out at Leicester. That came off a break so will be better for it and we are also 2lbs lower here. Tongue-tie remains on but we are also…

Another nice winner for the in-form Jamie Snowden yard. Original quote: "Early Morning Rain - Improved on her debut run to be a fine second last time out - this looks slightly weaker on paper but Anthony's horse could be anything and is, therefore, feared."

Each-way return from Suzy's horse. Original quote: "Cracker Jak - Ran a nice race at Kempton last time - staying on well. Is still learning but could reach the frame here off a nice weight."

Top winner for Oliver. Original quote: "Tarada has run with great promise in both of his races to date, a bumper at Carlisle and a hurdle at Chepstow. The form of both those races has worked out really well. Tarada is an enormous horse who has been given plenty of time by his owner, he…

Promising effort and looks a horse to note. Original quote: "Lady Cosette - New horse to us - she came from the Jeremy Noseda yard. Nice recruit to the yard and despite not winning yet has some fair overall form. Big step up in trip here from 7f to 1m4f though so bit of a…
