Another winner for the in-form Mick Appleby team. Original quote: "Palmerston - Probably one of our better chances on the day. Two fine seconds the last twice and only just touched-off last time (neck) here. Only 3lbs higher for that, but same trip and ground so no reason why he can't go close again in…

30th May 2017 3rd 6/1 – Cryptonite – Mick Appleby Redcar
Plugged on well to take third. Original quote: "Cryptonite - Won two starts ago, but disappointed us last time at Southwell. Trying the first time cheek-pieces today as raced a bit keen last time, while this drop back to 6f is also another plus. Returns to the turf at a track he's run ok at…

29th May 2017 1st 4/1 – Albert Boy – Scott Dixon Leicester
Powered home to win by an easy 5 lengths - nice call! Original quote: "Albert Boy: Won 2 starts ago at Brighton over 1m4f. Ran a solid race in defeat at Doncaster and I felt the race wasn't run to suit at all. This is a weaker contest than that and I think he goes…

29th May 2017 1st 12/1 – Seneca Chief – Daniel Kubler Chelmsford
Great double on the card for the Kubler camp. Original quote: "Seneca Chief - Dropped back to 5f as was far too keen when attempting 7f last time out - should show more in this company if proving a bit more civilised for his jockey."

A much improved run from Jane's horse. Original quote: "Twiggy - On her last start she hated the firm going at Brighton so hoping for some rain to take the sting out of the ground - has run a third at the track before - good draw in 1, so would be delighted with a…

29th May 2017 1st 16/1 – Just Fab – Lee Carter Chelmsford
Overcame the wide draw to win well for the Lee Carter team. Original quote: "Just Fab: Bit disappointing of late - but did show a bit better last time here. Up to a mile is fine, but the draw in 11 is not ideal around here. If she gets some luck in-running then small each-way…

29th May 2017 1st 11/1 – Osgood – Gary Moore Huntingdon
Great call from Gary Moore. Original quote: "Osgood - Disappointed us last time, but may have not quite been right that day so certainly not one to give up on. Dropping to a nice mark and the jockey also takes off another 10lbs. Course and distance winner so hoping the return here will help and…

27th May 2017 2nd 15/2 – Socialites Red – Scott Dixon Chester
Another solid each-way run from Scott's horse. Original quote: "As well as ever at home and on track. Felt only the draw beat her at Beverley last time out. 6f at Chester should suit her perfectly and the ground is spot-on. Drawn ok and she is quick into stride. Low weight and with a jockey…

26th May 2017 3rd 11/1 – Princesse Fleur – Michael Scudamore Worcester
Stayed on to land the each-way money. Original quote: "Princess Fleur - Seemed to not be giving her all last time so have put some blinkers on today. Is better over fences, but not that many options for her at the moment so have gone back over hurdles. Has place hopes."

26th May 2017 3rd 8/1 – Escalating – Mick Appleby Pontefract
Ran on well to take third. Original quote: "Escalating - Draw 12 not ideal, but has been running well of late. Not going to be easy from there, but the horse is in great form so small each-way - but will probably need a bit of luck in-running."

25th May 2017 1st 20/1 – Suzi Icon – Mick Appleby Chelmsford
Got home by a neck to land the money. Original quote: "Suzi Icon: Only second run for us - was previously with John Bridger. 7th of 14 on debut for us at Brighton, but well down the field that day. Hung late on that day so the track probably not ideal for her, while the…

25th May 2017 1st 7/2 – Gossiping – Gary Moore Goodwood
Always travelling well - powered clear to win well and looks a horse to follow. Original quote: "Better drawn (4) than last time when winning here over course and distance. As long as there is pace in the race, Gossiping should have very chance again. "

Another solid each-way run from Mick's horse. Original quote: "Be Royale - She's still going strong at 7 and this will be her 56th career run. No real hiding place from the handicapper these days though and just 1 win from her last 32 tells it's own story. Never far away though in her races…

24th May 2017 2nd 100/1 – Pastime – Gay Kelleway Yarmouth
No chance with the winner, but great run at 100/1 to be second ! Original quote: "Pastime: A fair sixth on debut at Catterick - expected to come on for that and take a step in the right direction, but hard to see him toppling the front two in the betting on what they've shown."

24th May 2017 1st 12/1 – Dovils Date – Tim Vaughan Lingfield Park
Another course win for Tim's horse - top call at 12/1! Original quote: "Dovils Date - The favourite won with a lot more in-hand last time than the winning margin suggested so might be hard to beat here. Our horse has a bit to prove at the moment, but did run a lot better last…

23rd May 2017 1st 8/1 – Fantasy Keeper – Mick Appleby Nottingham
Powered clear to win by an easy 2 lengths. Original quote: "Fantasy Keeper - Lightly-raced with just three career runs, but has done really well the last twice. Into handicap company for the first time helps and seems well after a small break. Think the return to the turf will be fine and the step…
