Promising first run under Lee's care - looks a winner waiting to happen. Original quote: "Ixelles Diamond - First run for the yard after being with the Andrew Reid team. Bought cheaply at the sales recently so we'll know a bit more after today. Old form suggests she's not too badly handicapped so a small…

Top call from Lee and a 1-3 in the race for the yard too! Original quote: "Zabdi - Had tendency to hang right recently at Lingfield, hence why we are coming to Kempton today - should suit him a lot better. Consistent sort and with Josie Gordon a plus in the saddle then expected to…

Broke well and held on from the front. Original quote: "Call Out Loud: Been running with credit recently - including winning three starts back at Southwell. Another of mine having his first run here at the track today, but dropped into Selling Company helps. A tiny bit to find with a few of these at…

Another easy winner on the day for the Tim Vaughan team - great call! Original quote: "Chakisto - Won well for us on Boxing Day at Wincanton. Had a nice break since and only up 7lbs here so based on some old form still doesn't look too badly treated. Trip and grade fine and Alan…

Well backed and a very easy win for Tim's horse - looks set to go in again in that form! Original quote: "William Money - A nice debut run for us last time at Chepstow back in January - second that day to an improving sort that has since run up a sequence of wins…

Place money landed! Original quote: "Pour L'Amour ran a promising race on her first start for our yard and was doing her best work at the end, so we think the extra 2 furlongs will suit her. She is in good form at home and providing all 8 run on the card then she would…

Nice e/w call from Jamie - he even gave us the winner! Original quote: "Blue Bullet - Was a good second last time and the tongue-tie should help improve him. This looks a weaker affair than last time and hopeful of a good run - although Ali Stronge's horse in the race - Chez Castel…

Got first run on the favourite and that was enough to win - looks a fair sort for Mick. Original quote: "Bounty Pursuit - Only third run for us, but did well on the turf in his two starts last June - placed both times. First run on the AW here and first run back…

Gained a first win of it's career and can hopefully kick on from here. Original quote: "Dream Serenade - Likes to race up with the pace so hoping to be prominent over this 2m trip. A fair 4th last time here over shorter and third the time before over this course and distance. Yet to…

Each-way money landed! Original quote: "Toga Tiger is having his first run since joining our yard so we will know more about him after today. He is working well at home & we know that conditions suit today so providing there is a strong pace in the race then we are hoping for at least…

Made up for falling last time out - nice call from Oliver! Original quote: "Minella On Line runs in a novice handicap chase over 3m 1f. Minella won on his first start for me here at Plumpton, that was over 2m 3f and I don't see why he would not get the extra six furlongs…

Another solid wach-way run here for Mark's horse. Original quote: "Pensax Lady: Loves it round here - both her career wins have come here. Only a pound higher than her last win can ignore her last run as badly drawn and was slowly away. Better draw here in 2 helps and Luke Morris back in…

A nice double on the day for Mick and the team. Original quote: "Big Country - A horse we've not had long, so we'll learn a lot from today - but had some fair form over in Ireland. Yet to win, but been knocking on the door and this sort of grade gives us a…

Yes, a slightly surprising win - A much improved run and hopefully Gay's horse can build on this now.  Original quote: "Oakley Pride - Been disappointing so far, but only fifth career run so still time. Has run ok here in the last and draw 2 helps, but a fair bit to find with the…

Only just failed by a neck to land this for Tim Vaughan - but e/w money still landed. Original quote: "The Wallace Line - Back in a more suitable grade and dropped 3lbs for last run - these two factors should give us a massive chance today. Trip, ground and track all fine so hoping…

Nice call from Henry - a return to form and looks one to follow now. Original quote: "Major Hinderance: Very nice horse - trip and track are fine so we head here with a small place chance. Only 5th career run so more to come and put in a much improved run last time -…

Jamie looks to have a good one on this hands here. Original quote: "Dans Le Vent - Is a nice horse. He won his bumper in the autumn and looks to have improved since. However, this is seriously competitive. It will be interesting to see if we're up to running in the champion bumper -…

Top call from Mick and 1 or 2 winners on the day for the team. Original quote: "Alfonso De Sousa - A welcome return to form last time out at Lingfield when third of 10. Gets in here off the same mark (still well-handicapped on old form), but the drop in grade is a big…

Solid each-way run from Lee's horse to be second at 6/1. Original quote: "First Experience - 4lbs better off with Skidby Mill for 4 lengths that horse beat us last time so hoping to get a lot closer this time. Kirby a plus in the saddle and very closely-matched with our other runner in the…

Nice winner for Jamie! Original quote: "Lunar Flow is back to his last winning mark and should be fine in the heavy ground. The blinkers should sharpen up his jumping but it looks a wide open race full of horses out of form - but on a plus that must give us some sort of…
