Much better run from Henry's horse. Original quote: "Former flat winner but yet to get off the mark over the sticks. Only second run back from a break and also a wind op so is still finding his feet a bit this season, but is 6lbs lower than last time and the better ground will…

Nice winner for Oliver and the team and another TQ View winner too! Original quote: "Jersey Bean won last time out at Newton Abbot when making most of the running and really jumping from fence to fence. He’s been a revelation since the blinkers were fitted and, as I said before, it’s not that he’s…

Solid return run - one to note next time. Original quote: "Did well last season - winning twice - but was last seen falling at Sedgefield so needs to bounce back from that. First run since today and looking forward to another nice season, but over this 2m trip and here at Hereford it might…

Gained a much-deserved win. Original quote: "Has been a tad frustrating - but has ability. Got caught on the line here over this trip last time out to go down a short-head but hoping we've found a similar race so she can get off the mark. Oisin Murphy rides and even though we are a…

Great call from Robin Original quote: "Back over fences today and seems well at home - Has had a wind op after a slightly disappointing run back, and should be able to run to a place if repeating his last seasons form, while Tabitha can help by claiming a handy 5lbs."

Travelled well and looks a nice prospect for Gary - another nice TQ View winner on the day too! Original quote: "First run in a handicap and looks to be fairly assessed by the handicapper. Has won two bumpers in France and has been placed in two hurdle races so I hope to see a…

Stayed on really well to take this for the Snowden yard and another TQ View winner this month! Original quote: "College Oak won a bumper last season, and won a novice hurdle earlier this season. He was given a workable opening mark, but our handicap debut didn't really go to plan as he found quick…

Promising run from Oliver's horse. Original quote: " Cilaos was very disappointing last winter having won two novice hurdles the previous year. There was no obviously reason but he did injure his pelvis after winning at Chepstow in April 2019, he was given plenty of time to recover from that before having a good summer…

Showed a lot of improvement from it's first run and looks a nice prospect for Scott. Original quote: "Pleasing debut run here earlier this month when 5th of 12. Just got tired in the closing stages that day but that experience will be a big help here and should be a lot more to come.…

Another placed finish for Scott's horse. Original quote: "Won for the first time two runs back at Thirsk, but failed to build on that last time at Redcar - got a bit worked up in the stalls that day and lost all chance really so can put a line through that. Yet to win on…

Won well for Gay and the team. Original quote: "Been a bit poor of late but a sign of better things last time here over this trip when 5th of 14. 2lbs lower and Callum rides again to claim the 7lbs. Slightly easier race as down from a 0-65 into a 0-60 here so that…

Another consistent run from Gary's horse. Original quote: "Nice draw in 7 and has been in decent form in recent races. Likes to come from off the pace so if good luck in-running, should have every chance. Jason Watson rides and ran well (3rd) on only start here at Chelmsford. "

Just got nabbed on the line, but still a top effort. Original quote: "Ran well over 6f last time at Kempton (4th), but was only beaten 3/4 of a length, so this step up to 7f looks the obvious thing to do. First run at the track, but a nice draw in 1 and no…

Landed the e/w money. Original quote: "Dropping down to a fair mark and has run better than recent finishing positions suggest - didn't last home over 2m7f last time at Bangor so the drop back in trip a big plus and 2lbs lower here too. Probably better on good ground though so any more rain…

Looks a nice prospect for Oliver and the team. Original quote: "Grandeur D’Ame is a full brother to Dominateur who is a multiple winner for us and is also owned by Kate and Andrew Brooks. Dominateur is a much more laid back character than Grandeur, and whilst Dom loves soft/heavy ground he may not yet…

A remote third but a nice start back to the season. Original quote: "Should enjoy the going today and reasonably handicapped on best form. Has a small each-way chance."

Another solid run from Gary's consistent grey. Original quote: "In a race which should suit. Consistent sort that rarely runs a bad race. If enjoys the ground - has acted okay on soft in the past, should have a good e/w chance again with Ellie riding and claiming 5lbs in this amateur riders' race."

Great win for the Scudamore yard. Original quote: "Her Point-to-Point form has worked out quite well and goes nicely at home - perhaps will be better when going hurdling but has worked well ahead of this and hopefully can put her experience to good use here. Won her Point on soft ground but really works…

Showed great guts to get the better of the favourite. Original quote: "Not been on the track for well over a year (455 days) as had a few issues. Consistent profile over hurdles though with 9 top three finishes from 15 starts but last win now did come back in Jan 18. Mark looks fair…

Just left it a tad too late, but will a top run again at Newcastle and e/w money landed. Original quote: "If he breaks well he should go very close in this grade over his favourite course and distance despite it looking a strong race for the grade. Hollie Doyle rides."
