Improved run from Lee's runner. Original quote: "Treble Clef - Returning from a break - proving hard to get into 1m races so the 6f trip here might be a tad on the sharp side. Third run though so will get a mark after this and that will also help."

Handled the conditions much better than the others. Original quote: "Hard To Forget - Has a bit to prove at the moment as got hammered a bit by the handicapper last season for winning a poor race. Still 6lbs higher for that, but the ground and trip are ideal. Looks another bad race so that…

Improved run from Oliver's horse. Original quote: "Ventura was a decent soft ground horse on the flat before joining me but he’s been pretty disappointing so far over hurdles. Ventura isn’t the scopiest of jumpers but he can get from a-to-b perfectly efficiently, he’s a sweet horse but he probably saves a bit for himself…

Ran on well to take second. Original quote: "Beat The Breeze - Not shown much on the track so far but has scope and has grown up considerably in recent weeks. At the right place in the handicap to start and although he will obviously come on for the race, no complete surprise to see…

Great winner for Mark. Original quote: "Blue Medici is trying Wolverhampton for the first time today, which would be a slight concern as his wins have been on more galloping tracks. He is in super form at home though and if there is an honest gallop today then we would be hopeful of an each-way…

Another top winner for Jamie Snowden. Original quote: "Barrowlands - Was second in four Points and was third in hurdling debut when hampered quite badly but still stayed on nicely. He's not quick but should handle this soft ground well and he's got a squeak in a poor contest."

Double on the day for Scu. Original quote: "Justice Knight - Has come on for his last run at Hereford after a break - better ground here will be fine and in his slightly better race we've a lighter racing weight to carry. Only 5lbs higher than when winning well at Huntingdon two runs back…

Top call from Henry! Original quote: "Generous Day - Blew away the cobwebs over hurdles last time out at Chepstow in a better grade of race than this too and has come on for that outing. Back over fences here - only sixth run over the bigger obstacles (2 wins) so we feel there is…

Cracking effort from Oliver's horse. Original quote: "Papagana - I didn’t have a straightforward run with Papa last season so I think there is still improvement to come. Papa is a very genuine and talented mare, she will enjoy this trip and whilst the ground will be fine as she will handle very soft conditions.…

Much better from Scu's horse. Original quote: "Court Master - Showed some fair form last season but lost his way a bit since. We've given him a wind op over the summer though and hopeful that has improved him. We'll need to see that on the track, but is well at home and should also…

Each-way money landed. Original quote: "Mr Palmtree - A much-improved performance last time, this is a step up though and he will need to improve again to win, but seems well, and should be capable of at least a place. Tabitha rides again and claims 5lbs. 2 1/2 stars."

Stayed on well to take third. Original quote: "Savitar - First run for us after coming from the Jim Boyle yard - had 12 runs already (1 win) and shown a fair level of form in these sort of races. We are stepping him up to 1m2f, which we think will suit and is also…

Stayed on well to take third. Original quote: "Mustang Alpha - Is a nicely-bred 4 year-old out of a sister to a Grade One winner. He was impressive when winning his Irish Point in the Spring on decent ground - therefore, it was understandable that he didn't like the bad ground at Cheltenham on his…

Back on track - another exciting prospect for the Jamie Snowden yard. Original quote: "Thebannerkingrebel - He won two bumpers and was 2nd in the Grade Two Aintree Bumper after having had a year in between after problems relating to his wind. He bolted-up in two Spring Novice Hurdles and wasn't out of 2nd gear…

Return to form from Simon's horse. Original quote: "Roundabout Magic - Multiple winning sprinter but all his victories have been at Lingfield. Has run well enough here and starting to slide down the handicap. 7lb claimer will help further."

Easy winner for Mark and another TQ View winner this month. Original quote: "Red Gunner - In great form - won well last time at Wolverhampton and only up 3lbs for that. Trip is fine and has run well at the track before - was a close third here 4 runs back and probably should…

Place money landed. Original quote: "Stormingin - If pushed, probably our best chance on the day. Only a hands and heels race so not one to go overboard in but the horse is well and ran well on the flat last time at Nottingham. We feel this track will suit as a fairly easy 2m…

Plugged on well for third. Original quote: "Ban Shoof - Capable on his day but one of those horses that is a bit of a law to himself. Back down to last winning mark helps, but as I say really not a punting horse as depends what mood he's in and he only knows that…

Much improved run from Tim's horse. Original quote: "Copper Gone West - On a bit of a recovery mission at the moment after unseating (1st) and then being pulled up last time on her two runs back this season. She's a nice mare though and better than that. She'll prefer the softer ground this time…

Cracking 50/1 place shout! Original quote: "The Blue Bower - Had an impossible draw last time and didn't actually run too badly as was carried wide throughout the race over an inadequate trip. This is stronger but should be much more comfortable back over 6f and could reach the frame here."
