Macho Sun performed creditably at Nottingham last week, running on well at the finish. This step up in trip will suit as will soft ground. This looks a weak race and he should be competitive in it.

Zanagor makes her belated third run. She is a big filly who has needed time and as she will want 1m4f in the future, this 10 furlong trip is a good starting point for her.

Spanish Mane has been a star for the yard and loves this track. On the negative side, she always needs a run at the start of a season and is in a higher grade than in which she wins. Will improve for the run.

Silver Shamrock made a pleasing seasonal debut ten days ago when she was beaten only two lengths. She has come out of the race in great shape and should have come on for the run. This is a lower grade today so she should have a good each-way chance.

Clenched has struggled in novice hurdles but now runs in her first handicap when I expect her to be more competitive. The track and quicker ground will suit.

Macho Sun has been unlucky not to have won a race by now. He runs well fresh and loves heavy ground, with all his best runs over this CD. He's well handicapped so should have an each-way shout.

Heer's Sadie makes her seasonal debut at her favourite track. She has done well for her winter break and with trip and ground to suit, hopefully, she has an each-way chance.

Smokey Maloe always runs his race and is a CD winner. He is in great form but his winning usually happens in a lower grade than today's.  Hopefully, he has each-way chances.

Corporate Raider makes his seasonal debut after a winter break. He has done well physically and has been working well but his best form is on turf. This is quite a weak race and Ross's riding him is a bonus so we hope he can run into a place.

Hurricane Kiko has been disappointing since his two-year-old days. On the positive side, his work at home has been good and he has become very well-handicapped. We have fitted a hood to see if he can find his best form again.

Notre Dame has done very well since going handicapping on the AW. She remains in good form and should transfer that ability to the turf. If the ground is good or quicker she should be thereabouts.

Silver Shamrock makes this a double challenge for the yard. She makes her return for the season but did run well over this CD last year and has strengthened over the winter. Will improve for the run.

Queen's Company blew away the cobwebs when not beaten far at Southwell over an inadequate trip. Back to her favourite track and distance, she should hold a good each-way chance.

Leon Trotsky is the first runner in the UK for his sire Michigan, who is by Galileo. He has to run in this grade as he doesn't qualify for any other races. A learning curve to see where he will go in the future.

Alibaba has been running on AW through the winter but his best form is on turf. He has now dropped to a very handy mark and his work at home has been good. The return to grass should bring a return to form and he holds an each-way chance.

Smokey Malone has had a short break but runs well fresh and is in good form at home. He is largely unexposed over two miles but it shouldn't be a problem. Each-way chances.

My Mate Charlie makes his belated debut in this bumper. It looks quite a competitive race but hopefully, he will show some promise for the future.

Queen's Company makes her seasonal debut after a winter holiday. She is ready for the run but will probably need the race. We hope for a nice start to improve on through the season.

Eloped makes the long trip to Newcastle. She has the form to beat this evening's opposition and hopefully, this track will suit her. She is in good form at home so she should be thereabouts.

Fen Tiger was unlucky not to win last year but has become well-handicapped as a result. He has been working well and this ground will be ideal. Each-way hopes from a good draw.

Mrs Meader makes her debut for the year. She was 4th in this race 12 months ago when 6lb higher in the handicap. The ground will suit her and Sam knows her well, important as she's not an easy ride. Each-way chance but she will improve for the run.

Notre Dame showed a good attitude to win the last day. The track and trip tonight will suit. The others do look well exposed so we hope we have found another winning opportunity for her.

Hurricane Kiko has been disappointing recently and we are trying different trips to find the key to him. A watching brief is advised until we can figure out his optimum distance.

Clenched has run a couple of times over hurdles so hopefully this run will give her a handicap mark. She should be competitive when the ground dries out, if it ever will!

Eloped won well at Wolves on her last run; has come out of that race very well. and has been given the time she needs between her races. She stays tonight's trip well so hopefully, she will be thereabouts again.

Stintino Sunset was slightly disappointing last week at Wolverhampton but the sharp track probably didn't suit her. She has come out of the race well and as there is nothing else for her until April we take our chance at this extra fixture. She is a CD winner this year so hopefully she has an each-way chance again.

Stintino Sunset has been running consistently all winter and seems to go well in a hood. This new track for her should suit her running style. Also, Dylan khows her so well and with a good draw she should have a good each-way chance once more.

Notre Dame has been improving for racing and also since stepping up to 7f. We have been waiting for this particular race and grade. She is working well so we hope this gives her the right chance to lose her maiden tag.

Alibaba hasn't shown much form since his return from injury but he is now into a grade where he is far superior if he regains his true level of form. He is probably better on the turf but with Ross on board and with a first-time hood, he should be thereabouts.

I can't believe just how many of our horses run in the final race of the day. Eloped is probably nicely handicapped now. We have been learning about her since she came to the yard from the HIT sale. This trip looks ideal and she is in the correct grade. The favourite will be hard to beat but I think we have a good each-way chance.

We thought Smokey Malone would be better for the run when he returned after a break over this CD 12 days ago but he won nicely. Now up 2lb, he has to run in a higher grade but he has come out of his race fit and well and looks to have a solid ew chance.

Rusheen Boy won well on handicap debut and followed up under a penalty in a Classified stakes. He's now 11lb higher than for the first win so will need to step up in this higher grade, but he seems very well so hopefully, he will be worth each-way support.

Stintino Sunset is making the long trip to Newcastle because it does looks a weak race. She has been very consistent and ran well over 1m3f last time. The drop back to 1m2f on a stiff track should suit so hopefully, she will be thereabouts again.

Hurricane Kiko has struggled since winning as a 2yo after which he was probably rated too highly.  We are yet to find the key with him, having tried different trips. We hope now that Josie Gordon and her feminine touch might provide the answer.

Grand Duchess Olga has been consistent since we stepped her up in trip and concentrated on running her at Chelmsford. The 2m here suits her best and she has been in good form at home. This looks a weak race so hopefully, she can get back to winning ways.

Smoky Malone is coming back after a break; he has been working nicely and this looks an ideal race for him. The one drawback? - he usually needs a run to get in trim, but this looks a weak contest and he might just get away with it.

Clenched jumped well last time on hurdles debut before getting tired. The favourite looks tough to beat but we're just hoping to pick up some place prizemoney.

Stintino Sunset has been running consistently well since being fitted with a hood. She didn't handle Lingfield last run and this more galloping, level track over this shorter distance will be ideal. If there's plenty of pace on, she should have a good each-way chance.

Alibaba is now very well handicapped and we have been wanting to step him up in distance but he keeps getting balloted out of 0-55 races. If he does stay this far which on breeding he should, then he ought to be different class in this weak contest.

Moralisa is having her second start for the yard. She seemed to be outpaced over 1m last run so we have stepped her up to 1m2f. She goes well at home so it will be interesting to see if the extra distance brings an improved performance.

Ruheen Boy won well last Friday and seemed transformed with the application of hood and tongue strap, he has gone up 11lb, so we have to run with a 6lb penalty. He seems to have come out of his race fresh and well so we hope he can follow up in a weak-looking race against older rivals.

Clenched has been very disappointing on the flat but she has loads of ability. She has been schooling very well with Jack Quinlan and she seems to have taken to the change in code. If the ground isn't testing she could have an each-way chance at a big price.

Eloped ran well on her 2nd start for the yard last time but still dropped a couple of pounds which was very helpful. She has won over 1m4f here before her layoff but the way she finished off last time suggests she'll stay the longer trip. Each-way chances.

Rusheen Boy makes his handicap debut after a break and being gelded. His work at home is much improved for wearing a hood and tongue-tie. He will have a good each-way chance at a big price.

Grand Duchess Olga has been running consistently well at Chelmsford this winter. She drops back in grade here and stays well, so hopefully she will bounce back to winning ways in a weak-looking race.

Notre Dame wasn't suited by soft ground on handicap debut but then showed improvement on her last run with the switch to the AW, running on over 6f. The step up to a furlong more should suit her. She is in great form at home and should be thereabouts in a weak-looking race.

Hurricane Kiko has been disappointing since his win last year but probably ended up badly handicapped as a result of it. Stepping up in trip and a change of headgear here, hopefully, will bring some improvement again.

Moralisa is having her first run for the yard and an initial try at 1m but past form suggests she will be suited by it. Previously, she has had issues with the starting stalls so we are keeping our fingers crossed that all goes okay, that she can run well and we will learn plenty about her.

Stintino Sunset seems in great form since her win last time for which she went up only 3lb. This is another step up in trip but she appeared as if that would be fine when she won. Hopefully, she can follow up in what seems a weak contest.

Eloped has had one run for the yard, over an inadequate trip at Chelmsford. She dropped 2lb for that and is now able to get into this grade without being balloted. The step back up to 1m6f will suit and with the tongue-tie re-fitted, she should have an each-way chance at a big price.

Alibaba was lightly raced on the turf because he never got the right ground so he now runs on the AW. He's unexposed on the surface and is trying a new trip which we think is probably what he wants. He is very well handicapped now and it would nice to see him run well so we can plan a winter campaign for him.

Hurricane Kiko ran well last time at Lingfield in first-time blinkers but he didn't quite get the mile, so we're dropping back to 7f with Luke Catton on board again. If the headgear is still effective he should have an each-way chance.

Eloped is a filly we bought recently at the Tattersalls HIT sale. This a learning curve with her and she may be a little high in the handicap, but she seems very straightforward on what we've seen so far.

Grand Duchess Olga has been improving since being stepped up in trip at Chelmsford. She has a little ground to make up on Tradesman on earlier form but is 4lb better with him and also more capable over this  2m.  I expect her to be thereabouts again.

Stintino Sunset has been very consistent this summer on mainly soft ground. She has yet to show the same form on AW but has improved since being stepped up in trip. If she acts on the Chelmsford surface, she will hold an each-way chance.

Alibaba has had an entry in a number of races on turf lately but the ground would have been too soft for him each time. We were pretty much forced to go back to AW on which he's unexposed. Hopefully, the stiff straight mile will suit and as he's down in grade, he has to hold chances of being thereabouts.

Mrs Meader missed an intended outing on testing ground at Newbury last week when the meeting was abandoned and runs on this AW instead. She ran well here earlier in the season and as she seems in good form, we hope she can sign off for the year with a good run this afternoon.

Notre Dame is a Kingman filly that we like. She made her handicap debut on her last run but did not handle the soft ground. She has since dropped into this lower grade and 6f on AW should suit her better. Good each-way chance at a rewarding price.

Macho Sun has been wanting this ground but the meeting is usually abandoned when he does. Hopefully, he gets his chance here as he is very well and we thought him unsuited by the track last time when he also seemed not to appreciate the headgear which we've dispensed with. He stays further than this one mile so he will be staying on with chances of making the frame at a big price.

Corporate Raider is probably better on the turf but he did run well here earlier in the year when rated higher. He is well handicapped now so worth a try before his winter holiday.

Clenched has been very disappointing for the yard. We bought her thinking she just needed a step up in trip but she hasn't been finishing her races so have dropped her back to 1m and taken off the headgear. This is just about the last chance for her to show some improvement before the November sale.

Grand Duchess Olga has taken well to Chelmsford. She looks as though a step up in trip will suit her as she needed all of the 1m6f when she won here two runs back. Only 1lb higher tonight, she looks to hold a favourite's chance.

Pierce is a relative newcomer to us and makes his second start for the yard in Hurricane Kiko's race. We're still learning about him and try cheek-pieces and a tongue-tie here today. It will be interesting to see how he goes with the new equipment.

Hurricane Kiko has been disappointing this year probably because he is too high in the handicap after a good two-year-old season. We're trying blinkers here and taking off 5lb for Luke Catton, so just hoping for a better performance.

Scotch Mist has been disappointing since going handicapping but I don't think she has stayed the trip the last twice. We're dropping her back in distance now and putting on blinkers for the first time. Hopefully, that will bring some improvement as she will love the ground and Fred Daly takes off a handy 5lb in this amateurs' race.

Grand Duchess Olga is a course and distance winner around Chelmsford. She should be thereabouts in what looks a weak enough race.

Heer's Sadie loves Brighton where she has won twice, her first two attempts there in early summer. We've kept her racing by the seaside and most of her four runs since have been creditable too, but she prefers a small field. Hopeful of each-way claims for her.

Silver Shamrock ran well last time over one mile on good to soft ground. We are not sure she wants it this soft but will give her today's run before putting her away for next year.

Macho Sun is back from a short break. He will love the soft ground and has a good each-way chance.

Queen's Company won this race last year on good to soft going. She has been in good form this year, winning twice. This will be her last run before she appears in the Tattersalls online sale on Thursday.

Pierce makes his makes his debut for the yard. He is very straightforward at home and looks like he needs this step up in trip. I'm not sure about the ground for him, but again we will learn plenty after this run.

Notre Dame is a Kingman filly we like and hopefully, her handicap mark of 60 should be workable. This looks an ideal opportunity when the only worry is whether she will handle the soft ground. As with City Of Troy on Saturday, we will only find out if we run.

Stintino Sunset won well last run in a first-time hood. She is probably still well handicapped based on her homework and this looks an ideal race for her. She should hold an each-way chance.

Hurricane Kiko was disappointing at Kempton last time but he has never run well there. Tonight he's back at Chelmsford where he is a winner over the distance and was also 2nd there the time before the Kempton run. He's working well at home and hopefully goes there this evening with an each-way chance.

Lady Clemmie is trying 1m4f for the first time today. She is very lowly handicapped now but does have ability. This type of race should suit her, so we're just hoping for a better run from her before she goes to the sales.

Mrs Meader ran well at Newcastle and remains in good form at home and although she would prefer softer ground, she will be okay with no firm in the description. She is probably better over this longer trip here, so hopefully she has an each-way chance again.

Corporate Raider has been running consistently well this year since being fitted with blinkers and stepping up in trip. This track should suit his style of running so hopefully, he will have an each-way chance once more.

Scotch Mist is quite unexposed at this trip and can be forgiven her last run at Southwell when she never faced the kickback and came back with a severe reaction to the oil in the surface. This is the first time she has had soft ground at this trip. Most of these do not have soft/heavy form so we think she has a good each-way chance at a big price.

Notre Dame is having her third run here, and will be a complete outsider. However, she is a nice, well-bred filly and will be worth following once handicapped.

Spanish Mane has been a star for us, but she does like to change venues and jockeys, so it's back here at Leicester, where she has won in the past. As it's an apprentices' race, Georgia Dobie, who has won on her takes the ride. The ground should be in her favour and going back down in grade will suit. Hopefully, an each-way chance for her again.

We're trying Clenched in first-time blinkers this evening. She has worked well in them so are hoping they will bring some improvement. Also, switching to the AW, where her dam won plenty of races, could be another positive.

Lady Clemmie ran over the CD last time but the race didn't go her way as she was shuffled back out of contention early on. She has worked well since and should have an each-way chance at a nice price. Dylan Hogan will ride as his intended mount is a non-runner.

Grand Duchess Olga ran a nice race to be 2nd over the CD last time. This was an improved performance and the form has been working out well. She has come out of the race in good shape so hopefully, will be thereabouts today.

Non-runner

Silver Shamrock is a nice filly for the future. She is having her third run here and will then have a break before handicapping in the New Year.

Queen's Company loves it here at Yarmouth where she has won three times. She is up in grade today but has been in great form at home and she will have ideal ground conditions. Each-way chances once more.

Notre Dame is a lovely filly with a great attitude and she ran a nice race first time out at Newmarket. This is her second run and I think the ground will be fine and expect another creditable run. She will be one to follow once qualified for handicaps.

Heer's Sadie has returned to form racing at Brighton this summer and still seems in good shape at home. Any rain will be good for her prospects as will the drop in class. She should have her chance once more.

Non-runner

Corporate Raider is trying this trip of 1m4f for the first time, but he should last out the distance here. He is in his right grade so hopefully, he has an each-way chance.

Smokey Malone was probably caught out by the soft ground last time at Bath when it rained all day. He is in great form at home and Dylan knows him well so back at Bath in a weaker race and on much faster ground he must be thereabouts.

Mrs Meader has made the long trip up to Newcastle because it has been too firm to run her on turf. She is unexposed on the all-weather but trip and track should suit her. Hopefully, she has an each-way chance with Sam taking off a useful 5lb.

Scotch Mist has been performing to a consistent level all year but has been crying out for 2m. We would have preferred soft turf but Southwell's artificial surface should be fine. Hopefully, she has an each-way chance.

Trinidad Calypso has struggled in her novices but this is probably more her grade and distance. It would be good if she could show a little more form to start to go up the handicap.

Heer's Sadie has progressed since we've been running her at Brighton but she didn't stay the mile last time although she was given plenty to do from her position in the field. Back down to 7f here and in a race for four-year-olds and up, there looks to be plenty of pace and her hold-up tactics should suit. Hopefully, she will bounce back to form.

Spanish Mane runs in the same race as Heer's Sadie which is a shame but these races are hard to find. She missed the break last time and then ran too keen in behind so we can draw a line under that one. She is on her highest mark after some better performances earlier in the season, so has to give Heer's Sadie plenty of weight, which could be a struggle. She is well though and can run her race.

Fen Tiger bounced back to form last time dropped in trip and with Ross on board. He has come out of that race well and the same combination teams up again. So long as there is still some soft in the ground he should be thereabouts once more.

Grand Duchess Olga has had just the one run for the yard. She probably wasn't as fit as we thought at Beverley but has come on well since and looks so much better now. We have changed the headgear to cheek-pieces and the surface and trip should be fine. Hopefully, she has an each-way chance.

Lady Clemmie is making her debut on the all-weather here. She is working well at home and we are hopeful she will go well for Rise Dawes as she seems the type that does suit a girl rider. Each-way chance at a big price.

Silver Shamrock ran a promising race at Kempton first time out. She has come on for that run but our thoughts are that maybe she will be better on AW so it's interesting to see how she runs on the turf here.

Notre Dame was a cheap buy from the Lady Ogden dispersal at the July Sale. She has come to hand quicker than we thought she would but as she doesn't qualify for the restricted 2yo races she has to start at the deep end. She is very professional though and will win races when able to compete in her grade.

Corporate Raider has improved since we stepped him up in trip. It was another good run last time and the track and ground should suit but again the favourite is the one to beat, We hope he will be thereabouts again.

Clenched has improved for her two runs for the yard as we have learnt more about her. It's another step up in trip for her with cheek-pieces added as she does race very lazily. The favourite will be hard to beat and we're hoping for another step forward.

Spanish Mane has been in great form since Josie Gordon has been riding her. She is on a career-high mark but goes well at the track and as long as there is some juice in the ground she should be thereabouts.

Heer's Sadie has been transformed since running at Brighton. She wasn't suited by the slow pace last time but still ran on for 2nd. She is off the same mark here, in a lower grade and with an ideal draw for her. If the race is run to suit she should win again.

Trinidad Calypso is having her third run and will then qualify for a handicap mark. The step up to 1m4f will suit her as will some soft ground. She will be worth following once handicapping.

Fen Tiger has been disappointing this year but there have been excuses and he probably doesn't get beyond 1m4f. The ground and track will suit and he is back to a winning mark. There is no reason why he shouldn't bounce back at a nice price.

Smokey Malone has been very consistent all year and is ultra-versatile regarding trip. He is still in great form but wouldn't want soft ground so we will check whether there was much rain last night and then decide on running him or not.

Zanagor has been a slow-maturing filly but has loads of ability. We would have preferred to run her on turf but there are no open novices or maidens for 3-year-olds. It's her second career run so she will learn plenty. One to follow for the future.

Queen's Company is in good form and while she wasn't suited by Brighton last time, she goes well at Yarmouth. Hopefully, will bounce back to form here with conditions to her liking.

Silver Shamrock is a nice filly and is ready for the run. She has been working nicely but will probably come on for the experience and learn for the future.

Hurricane Kiko is better on the all-weather. He returned to form on his latest run at Chelmsford and has also run well at Kempton before. Unfortunately, he has a difficult draw in 14 especially as he likes to run prominently so will need some luck.

Stintino Sunset has been running consistently all year without winning. She is 6lb better off with Premiership this time on Yarmouth form and this longer trip should suit her. Hopefully, the first-time hood will help and Hollie Doyle is a big positive.

Alibaba has been progressing with each run since his return from injury and is now very well handicapped. With Sam also taking 7lb off, he should be thereabouts here.

Corporate Raider has been running well since being fitted with blinkers and employing front-running tactics. We are taking 7lb off with Sam Feilden so we hope he can make another good show.

Clenched joins Corporate Raider in this handicap for horses that have not won more than once. She didn't handle the very soft ground on her stable debut at Redcar. The conditions will be better today and Dylan has chosen to ride her so we are hoping for a better run.

Trinidad Calypso is having her second run and should have learnt plenty from the first. While she stays at 10f today, she will be better over 1m4f on soft ground and will be more competitive once handicapped.

Heer's Sadie has been rejuvenated since running at Brighton where she is now two for two. She is in great form at home and Aidan Keeley retains the ride. She should be thereabouts again.

Macho Sun has been running consistently well this year without winning, but he looks like he needs this step up in trip now. He must have soft ground, so that will be ideal and he should have each-way chances once more.

Scotch Mist is still unexposed. She has been crying out for 1m4f plus and soft ground. Hopefully, the rain comes and while she may be better than her mark, she could be caught out by a well-handicapped three-year-old. Each-way chance.

Stintino Sunset ran well again last time but is hard to win with. We are trying a hood in the hope it will bring out some improvement. She will love any soft ground.

Corporate Raider has improved for the fitting of blinkers and a positive ride. He is still able to run in the same grade albeit there's a big field here. He loves Yarmouth so we hope he has an each-way chance again.

Grand Duchess Olga is making her debut for the yard. She ran well last time for her previous stable at Bath. Conditions should suit here and it looks a weak selling handicap so we hope she will be thereabouts.

Spanish Mane bounced back to form over this CD two runs back with Josie Gordon in the saddle and then followed up with another good run over the CD. but under a different rider. There are a couple of probable improving 3yo's to beat in this fillies' handicap, but Josie is back on board, so we hope she has an each-way chance.

Alibaba showed signs of returning to form when 3rd at Beverley two runs ago and had excuses for his poor effort last time when he suffered from heat stress on a very hot day. He is now 10lb lower than his last winning mark and should have a great chance of bouncing back.

Smokey Malone has been very consistent this year and he probably wasn't suited by the softer ground and slow pace last time. He has a good draw on the inside to get plenty of cover and is in the right grade. He is in great form at home and should be thereabouts.

Lady Clemmie has been a little disappointing because her homework has always been good. She did run a better race here at Lingfield in blinkers but didn't get home over the 1m2f so the drop back to 1m1f should help. Just hoping for some improvement.

Rusheen Boy improved from his first to second run. This will qualify him for a handicap mark after which he should be competitive in nurseries.

Mes Meader has been running consistently well this year without winning. Back on her favourite track on soft ground and with Ross on board, she can hopefully get back to winning ways.

Hurricane Kiko started the season too high in the handicap after winning last year. He is back at Chelmsford where he won over course and distance. Now dropped a few pounds and down in class he should be competitive again. He has an each-way chance, hopefully.

We bought Clenched late last year and we gave her a break to strengthen up. She looks great now and is ready for a run. We will be learning plenty about her with this run so she is probably best watched today.

Trinidad Calypso has taken time to get to the track but she's a nice filly - by Roaring Lion out of a Frankel mare - and will improve for the run. She will enjoy soft ground.

Macho Sun has been running consistently this year without winning. He has now dropped into this grade (0-65) for the first time. He needs soft ground and has run well at the track this year so hopefully, he has an each-way chance again.

Stintino Sunset is consistent but is hard to win with. She seems better on turf with cut in the ground. This is a big competitive field for the grade so we are just hoping for a good run.

Fen Tiger has been a bit disappointing this year but he did go off too quickly last time. He probably doesn't stay further than 1m4f either so this looks ideal and he has already won over the CD this year. Hopefully, he is handicapped to bounce back.

Scotch Mist makes her handicap debut here and we think she is just about on the right mark. She needs soft ground and this is probably her minimum trip, but we hope she has an each-way chance.

Non-runner

Stintino Sunset has been running consistently this year. This is her grade and the track will suit. We are trying blinkers this time to help her concentrate. She should have a good each-way chance.

Spanish Mane won this race a year ago and comes here in good form after the win at Lingfield. Josie Gordon is banned today so Georgia Dobie can take off the 3lb she went up for that win. This is a tougher race and again, any rain will help her too.

Queen's Company ran flat for whatever reason last time so we have freshened her up since, taking her very quietly. Hopefully, Brighton will suit her and any rain they get will help. Hoping she can bounce back.

Smokey Malone has been so consistent this year since being allowed to run over these longer distances. He seemed to stay 2m last run and now reverting to 1m6f is ideal. This is his grade and Dylan knows him well. Faviourite's chance and I'm confident with the horses going well.

Corporate Raider improved to win over the CD last time fitted with blinkers and making the running. It's different ground here today but it shouldn't be a problem. He has been in good form at home since that win, so we're hoping he will be thereabouts again.

Heer's Sadie won over this CD three weeks ago. she will be ridden today by the same successful apprentice and with similar conditions and grade, she is still well handicapped even up 4lb at 50. Hopefully, she has gained some confidence from the win and should have an each-way chance at least.

Queen's Company won well at Yarmouth last time when stepped up in trip. The 3lb rise is fair enough and she has come out of that race very well. The conditions of today's contest are ideal for her and she should be thereabouts again.

Mrs Meader was balloted out of her race at Newcastle on Friday so, unfortunately, she has to take on Queens Company as her owner is over from Hong Kong for a week and needs to see her run. She would prefer softer ground but is very well and should have an each-way chance.

Spanish Mane has disappointed in her last runs at Yarmouth so we have switched venue and also jockey in the hope that she can find her form again. She is a CD winner so I think we can be hopeful.

Fen Tiger has been disappointing this year after a good season in 2022. He would have preferred softer ground but he takes his chance here and we have fitted blinkers for the first time.

Alibaba has been coming back to form after a long layoff and now looks well handicapped. He is working well and hopefully, would have an each-way chance.

Macho Sun has been running consistently this season but is probably still a few pounds too high in the handicap. Any rain will help him but either way he should run well at a track that will suit him.

Hurricane Kiko has been slightly disappointing this year but mainly through being too high in the handicap. He has now dropped into this grade after the poor run of form and with blinkers fitted, should be more competitive.

Rusheen Bay was disappointing on his debut last time when he had a bad draw and was very keen with no cover. The drop to 5f will suit him and we like him a lot, so hopefully, he will have an each-way chance at a big price.

Zany Idea makes her handicap debut here. The drop back to 5f will suit and off bottom weight, hopefully, she can get competitive in this grade.

Stintino Sunset has threatened to win on a few occasions and while her turf form has been on softer ground, this stiff 7f should suit. The horses are in good form and she has been in great shape at home. Cheek-pieces are fitted again so hopefully she has an each-way chance.

Non-runner

Corporate Raider has been disappointing lately, but it does mean he has been tumbling down the handicap. Track and trip should suit and we are applying blinkers for the first time. Hoping he will be more competitive here.

Lady Clemmie ran better last time when making the running over 1m2f with blinkers on at Lingfield. She didn't seem to get home then so the drop back to 1m on this stiff track will suit. Also, she has dropped into this grade for the first time and Laura Coughlin takes off the 5lb so we hope she will have an each-way chance.

Heer's Sadie has been disappointing this year. She has run well at Brighton in the past and Aidan Keeley will know her better after riding her on her latest outing. Hopefully, she will run well in what looks a weak race.

Smokey Malone has been very consistent and has won over 1m4f on turf here in the past so has no worries with the track. Dylan Hogan thinks he will be fine stretching to 2m for the first time and the ground will be no problem. He should be thereabouts once more.

Spanish Mane disappointed last time after a good first run of the year, both runs on this track. She is better suited by this 7f than the mile she tried last time and bottom-weight is also a help. She seems well at home so we are hoping for a bounce back to form from her tonight.

Queen's Company ran well on her reappearance at Kempton. She has won at this track and the step up in trip will suit. We hope she will be thereabouts.

Hurricane Kiko disappointed last time at Newmarket, dropping out quickly. We are not sure why but have fitted cheek-pieces this time and will ride him differently. He ran well at the track last year so hopefully, we will see an improved run this evening.

Rusheen Boy is the nicest two-year-old we have had for a while. His work has always been good and he would have run a month ago but had a setback with a bruised foot. He is fine now and is very professional so we hope he has an each-way chance at a nice price.

We run two in the same race here tonight. Corporate Raider has been disappointing in his last couple of runs. We hope that the switch to 1m2f on turf will see some improvement. He has run well over this trip at the track on the AW. We just want to see a better run than his latest efforts.

Lady Clemmie has had an issue with the stalls lately but she seems fine at home now with the blinkers fitted. She steps up in trip here which should suit and we hope that the female factor is a plus with Georgia Dobie and she claims a useful 3lb. Hopeful for a better run.

Spanish Mane loves the straight course at Yarmouth but is maybe better over 7f than this mile. She is in great form at home though and in the right grade so hopefully she too has an each-way shout.

Smokey Malone is in great form at home and today's ground and trip will suit him. He is probably high enough in the ratings but is still in the correct grade. Hopefully, he has an each-way chance again.

Hurricane Kiko had a good 2yo season, winning on his final start. We are unsure about his handicap mark but he did run well on his seasonal debut. He is unexposed on turf but the ground should suit. Probably a watching brief.

Alibaba is starting to find his form after a long layoff, having run a promising race last time, just getting tired in the closing stages. He now seems well handicapped and has good course form off a higher rating. We hope he has an each-way chance here again today.

Mrs Meader has good CD form here and was probably unlucky on her latest run being left on her own when the field split in the straight on the soft ground. She seems in great form at home, so will hopefully be in the mix once again here.

Scotch Mist ran well last time after a long layoff. She has come out of the race well and the trip and ground will suit so we hope she will be thereabouts. She will qualify for handicaps after today.

Fen Tiger did well to win three races in the mud last year so it was disappointing that he couldn't do better on his first run back at Thirsk. He isn't an AW horse so you can put a line through Wolverhampton, but he does need to bounce back from a couple of below-par efforts. Maybe a watching brief is advised for now.

Macho Sun seemed to love soft ground when a close 2nd on his seasonal debut but then things dried out too much for him at Windsor last time. He has good course form and goes on testing ground so we hope he has a big chance. as long as the handicap debutants don't have a lot in hand.

Corporate Raider had improved with each run since joining us but didn't take to Chelmsford last time and came back sore from there. He took a while to recover but is good now. We'd just like to see him run a better race and show the last run hasn't left a mark. He is a bit of a softie so probably best watched today.

Stintino Sunset has been a bit disappointing recently but ran a great race when 2nd on soft ground at Leicester late last season. We're hopeful that a switch back to a slower surface can bring improvement. Hoping for a place as she's in good form.

Smokey Malone is back in top form now after losing his way a bit and it was great to see him win last time. There's no reason why he can't go close again but as ever he will need luck in running and a bit of pace injected into the race.

Savannah Song showed some promise first time out. This will be a bit more experience for her before she qualifies for handicaps.

Fen Tiger had a great 2022 on soft ground but was disappointing last time out when he got a bump 3f and threw in the towel. There isn't a suitable race for him on the turf so he has to run on AW which isn't ideal. He could still have place chances through if in the mood.

Spanish Mane loves it at Yarmouth and ran much better than we expected last time on ground softer than ideal. That will blown away the cobwebs after her winter holiday and I expect her to have a great chance today.

Three Beauz ran well on her seasonal debut and was probably a little unlucky being stopped in her run. She has come on for the outing and we hope the long trip pays off with some decent prize money on offer.

Mrs Meader ran a great race at Doncaster on her return to the turf after her winter break. She has run well at Windsor in the past and any further rain would be a bonus. She is in good form at home so we hope she will be thereabouts in a winnable race.

Alibaba is having his second run after a long break. He has been waiting for better ground so hopefully, it won't be too soft for him. He will probably need another run to come to full race fitness but he is ready to go again.

Heer's Sadie has been disappointing over the past year on the track but she still works well at home. This is her first try at Brighton but the track should suit her. Hoping for a good run in a weak contest.

Queen's Company was just coming to hand at the backend of last season, winning at Yarmouth over 1m. She has been working well and is ready for her seasonal debut. She does have plenty of weight which is a bit tough for a small filly. We hope she has an each-way chance here.

Savannah Song makes her debut here. Up to now, the daughter of Roaring Lion has been backward but she is ready for a run. We are not sure yet of her trip so this will be a learning curve and she will improve for the run.

Macho Sun ran well to be 2nd on his seasonal debut at Nottingham and has come out of that race very well. He is up 4lb for the run and makes his handicap debut here. The soft ground is the key for him and with the trip being ideal, he should have a good each-way chance today.

Spanish Mane makes her seasonal debut. She loves Yarmouth and has done plenty of work but she always needs her first run and the ground may be a bit soft for her. She will win again I'm sure when conditions are suitable.

Rose Fandango makes her debut for the yard today. We will learn about her from this run but 6f could be a bit sharp. She'll improve for the outing.

Scotch Mist showed promise in her only run as a two-year-old but has had her problems since. She has done plenty of work and will love the ground and trip. She could run into a place at a big price.

Lady Clemmie makes her handicap debut today. Her work at home has been good and we have done plenty of work with the stalls as she was a problem there last year. We are not sure about her handling the ground but hopefully, she will show promise for the future.

Smokey Malone returned to form on his latest run and was a little unlucky not to win when stopped in his run late on. He has come out of that race well and seemed to stay the 1m6f. Good each-way chances again.

Three Beauz makes her seasonal reappearance here. Her work has been good but this looks a competitive race. Hopefully, with the help of a first-time hood, she holds an each-way chance.

The Mouse King makes his seasonal debut and won very well here last year but paid for that with a hike in his rating. He has been working well and is probably worth that mark now but he may need the run as he is quite a stuffy horse. Unfortunately, Sam Feilden has had a fall in his yard, breaking his arm and dislocating his shoulder. Billy Loughnane takes over..

Corporate Raider ran well last time when stepped up to 1m2f. He ran in snatches that day so we have fitted cheek-pieces here. He has improved for the run and should have an each-way chance.

Macho Sun makes his seasonal and handicap debuts in this. He needs soft ground so that is a plus but he may be a bit high in the handicap for what he achieved last season. Probably best watched today to learn for the future.

Fen Tiger returns to Thirsk where he was a CD winner last year for his seasonal debut. He must have soft ground and I just wish he had run this year as ours normally need the run. He has been working well though so we hope he will be fit enough to win.

Smokey Malone has been a bit disappointing on his last two runs but seems to be in great form at home now. A course winner at Chelmsford, the trip should be fine. Dylan rode him to that last success and he should hold an each-way chance here.

Mrs Meader makes her seasonal debut here. She finished last season on a high and we have dropped her back to 1m2f as she tends to run a bit fresh first time out. She will love the ground and Sam knows her well having won on her in 2022. Hopefully a good each-way chance.

Hurricane Kiko was put away for the season last summer to strengthen and mature after winning his novice race. He is a different horse this year and his work has been good. However, this looks a competitive handicap and he will improve for the run so we will be delighted if he is in the shake-up.

Heer's Sadie has run well the last twice with this apprentice at Lingfield. Claiming 7lb and bottom weight from a good draw will help. Hopeful of a good run.

Arpina is pretty exposed by now but things didn't go her way last time and we can forget that one. We are trying the female factor today with Rose Dawes claiming 7lb. If Arpina is on a going day, she may hold place chances.

Corporate Raider has had just the one encouraging  run for the yard, but he threw a splint after that outing and was a little sore on it. We are stepping him up in trip again here which seems to be what he needs judged on his home work. This is a drop in grade for him so we hope he holds an each-way chance at a decent price

Alibaba makes his comeback tonight after being sidelined for just over 500 days. The handicapper has dropped him 3lb in the interim and he has been working nicely at home. He will probably be a little ring-rusty and will come on for the run.

Heer's Sadie ran a bit better over this CD last time, staying on well at the finsh under Tyrese Cameron. Tyrese has kept the ride and Sadie will hopefully run well now he knows her.

Stintino Sunset hasn't been beaten far in any of her races and she can meet All Dunn 6lb better for a two-length deficit on a previous encounter. In addition we are claiming 5lb for Luke Catton so hopefully she will have the chance of getting in the mix today.

Smokey Malone probably needed the run last time after a break at a track that probably doesn't suit. Southwell is a galloping track and much more suitable as he showed when running well here previously. He has come on from that last run, so hopefully he will have an each-way chance at a big price.

Engrave is a five-time CD winner and she ran well in higher grade here last week and has come out of her exertions well. Dylan Hogan is back on board so we hope she will be thereabouts once again.

Heer's Sadie has not been showing a lot lately and has been struggling to find some form. She is dropping back to 7f here and a feather weight will hopefully encourage some improvement.

Stintino Sunset has had a bad draw the last three times but despite that has performed well. This race is very competitive for the grade so we're just hoping for a solid run.

Arpina has been consistent without winning. She probably doesn't really get 1m2f so the drop back to 1m here should suit. The blinkers can help her concentrate and hopefully she can be thereabouts.

Engrave has come out of her win at Newcastle in great shape. That was a bonus as she had never previously won anywhere other than at Chelmsford. She is up in grade for her return "home" tonight but has a feather weight and few of the opposition have been running to form. Also, the one guaranteed stayer in the race, she must have an excellent chance of going close.

Smokey Malone has had a break after a long, busy and successful 2022. He has come back fresh and well but may just need the run today.

Arpina has been consistent recently without managing to get her head in front. This appears to be her best opportunity yet for a win and hopefully she takes take full advantage of it.

Zany Idea is having her third run - all on this track - after which she will be handicapped. She has plenty of speed and this 6f probably stretches her stamina, but she will learn from the experience and fare better when she gets her mark.

Stintino Sunset ran a good race last time, beaten only a length in fifth after a break. Back over the same course and distance here, we are hopeful she holds an each-way chance.

Everyone knows Engrave is a bit of a Chelmsford specialist but there aren't too many opportunities for her there at the moment so we're trying her at Newcastle today which I think should suit her. She is an uncomplicated ride and on a good rating now so we would be disappointed if she didn't finish in the first three.

Heer's Sadie has been very frustrating. She gallops better than anything at home and has far more ability than her rating would suggest. Sam has won on her before, so we are putting on cheek-pieces for the first time and will also try different tactics on her. 

Arpina has been mainly very consistent without winning. She has run well at the track and we hope going up in distance will bring out a bit more improvement. If she gets the trip she will have an each-way chance again.

Stintino Sunset has had a break since running well on heavy ground at Leicester. She has been working well at home and will run well fresh. Hopefully she will be thereabouts in a weak-looking race.

Engrave is now very well handicapped but all her best form is at Chelmsford. Unfortunately there are no races for her there at present. This is her first try on the Lingfield AW but she has performed well on the turf track there. If she handles the Polytrack she will have a good each-way chance.

Arpina was very consistent last year and was unlucky not to have won a race. We have given her a break and her work has been good enough to suggest she can win this sort of race. Dylan Hogan gets on well with her so we hope she has a good each-way chance again.

Zany Idea surprised us with the speed she showed on her first run. She just got tired and looked as though she didn't get the trip. We have dropped her to 6f here and hope she has learnt plenty from that first run.

Corporate Raider makes his debut for the yard here. He has settled in well and his work has been good. We hope that the step up in trip and drop in grade will bring some improvement to his form. Hopefully he will have an each-way chance at a good price.

Zany Idea is only a small filly but has taken time to mature mentally and physically. We've pitched her in at a realistic level but we just hope she can run respectably and show a bit of promise for the future.

Engrave ran well last time after a break when she normally needs the run. She has come out of her recent race well and is very well handicapped. Dylan Hogan is back on board and I think they will have a good each-way chance again.

Heer's Sadie has been disappointing since winning at Yarmouth last year but is now very well handicapped, Sam Feilden back on board and he gets on very well with her. We just need her to show some form again and hope she can run into a place.

Non-runner

Heer's Sadie ran well at Lingfield on her first try at the track. She is very well handicapped now and Sam takes off a further 7lb. He gets on very well with her and won on her last year. If she can reproduce the form from then, she would have a good each-way chance down in grade.

Engrave has had a break after two below-par runs when she was found to be unwell. She is now back to form and running in this grade for the first time in a long while. Unfortunately our usual amateur Ross Birkett who has won on her previously is banned so Simon Walker takes the reins. The only negative is that she usually needs a run after a break but hopefully she will be thereabouts even if only half-fit.

Heer's Sadie has been disappointing since gaining her only career win at Yarmouth almost 16 months ago when Sam Feilden had the mount. He's ridden her plenty of times since, but four different jockeys have been on since their last time together. We go to Lingfield for the first time over 1m and hopefully the track will suit. She is very well handicapped now but needs to find that old form again.

Arpina ran well last time after a break. She is always competitive in this grade but hasn't had much luck with the draw here. Dylan has chosen to ride Chagal which he won on last time but I think we should be thereabouts again as Arpina is very well at home.

Arpina has had a short break after a busy season. She is the best on the all-weather and this track and trip will suit her style of running. She is in good form at home and should be thereabouts in a weak-looking race.

Heer's Sadie is becoming very well handicapped but only because she has been disappointing in her last couple of runs. Feedback from her jockeys has been to try a tongue-tie so we will be fitting one this evening. The trip will suit and she has run well at Kempton before. We are just hoping for an improvement on her recent form.

The Mouse King has had a good season but he has gone up the handicap in the process. He takes his chance here and will like the easy ground but he is probably better on all-weather.

Zanagor is a filly we like. Her work has been good and she is ready for the run. She will be worth following next year but will outrun her odds today.

Macho Sun is having his third run here for a handicap mark, he ran well last time over 1m2f but this 7f will probably be too sharp for him, we had to run in this because no other suitable races on the turf. He will be a nice horse for next year.

Stintino Sunset ran well last run to finish a good fourth dropped a couple of pounds for that run so meets the favourite on 6lb better terms. Trip and ground will suit, we have added cheek pieces just to help her concentrate, she should have an e/w chance.

Was unlucky last week to bump into an improving three year old. He seems to have come out of the race well but has never backed up so quickly, this does seem a good opportunity for him and we are running out of options on the soft ground that he needs. Fred Gordon good value as he still qualifies for the race. We are hopeful that he will go close again.

Mrs Meader loves it here at Newbury, as she showed when winning impressively earlier in the summer. She is not an easy ride but Ross gets on so well with her. She runs best fresh so the break between the last race and today is good. With luck in running we hope she can be thereabouts.

Three Beauz ran back to form last run, she now runs on the aw as she likes quick ground, she has  good draw in 1 and must have a good ew chance but she maybe best over 6f now.

Macho Sun will make up into a nice three year old, he is having his second run here after showing promise on his first run. He will be worth following when handicapped for next year.

Heer’s Sadie has been unlucky not to win again this year but she has dropped in the handicap to a winning mark, ground will suit. Hopeful of a better run here.

Initiate has been disappointing this year, this is her last run before she goes to the sales, tongue strap fitted here so just hoping for a good run.

Zanagor is a filly we like who has needed the time, this looks a hot race but I am sure she won’t look out of the place, she is a filly for next year.

Fen Tiger has shown improved form since running on soft ground and a step up in trip. Hopefully Windsor will get the rain. Ross being a very good amateur is a big bonus so we would hope he goes well again here.

Queen’s Company has run well at the track in her last two runs, the step up to a mile will suit but we would have preferred to run in a lower grade, she is in good form and should have an e/w chance again.

Spanish Mane is in great form at home, the drying ground will suit and Rose Dawes back on board after her injury, she should run her race again and have an e/w chance.

Stintino Sunset makes her debut on turf, she has been working well on the turf, track & trip will suit and handicap mark about right. We think she has an e/w chance at a good price.

Smokey Malone has been very consistent this season since being stepped up in trip, another step up to 1m6f tomorrow but Dylan Hogan has been wanting to see him over this distance for some time. He is in great form at home and has won at Chelmsford. We would hope that he has a good e/w chance again.

Heer's Sadie has become well handicapped but she hasn't found her form of last year. She has been running quite well but we think she needs some help so we've added blinkers with the in-form Dylan Hogan on board. Good each-way chance in a weaker race.

Initiate has been coming down in the handicap from a mark that was too high for what she actually achieved. Easy ground will suit and we take off another 5lb for Johnny Peate. She ought to start showing some sort of form.

Macho Sun is a colt we like a lot and he will make up into a lovely three-year-old. He will need this run for experience but should run a nice race and will be worth following in the future.

Engrave did not run to form last week when the race wasn’t run to suit and Fred Larson didn’t know her. Back at her favourite track in a lower grade with Dylan Hogan back on her will hopefully see her run a better race. We hope she will have an ew chance again.

Runs back at Southwell where he has won, he has had excuses for his last couple of runs. Trip is fine and Dylan knows him well. We hope he has an e/w chance again.

Makes her handicap debut here, she has probably been well treated but needs to find the form of her first run. Ground will suit and jockey knows her. We hope she has an e/w chance at a good price.

The Mouse King won at Southwell two runs back and was raised 13lb! We ran him back, unplaced, under a penalty and he was dropped just 3lb. This looks a tough handicap and I think he's probably better on all-weather and in a lower grade.

Lady Clemmie is having her third run, again at Newmarket. As she doesn't qualify for the banded two-year-old races, we have to compete with these hot novices. She will be worth following once handicapped.

Stintino Sunset ran much better on her third run and the form has been working out well. She seems fairly handicapped and has a good draw, Dylan Hogan rides her again and we hope she can progress. Just hopeful of a good run here.

Engrave loves it here at Chelmsford, it was a shame she was unable to run here last Saturday in a lower grade race due to abandoned racing but she is now well handicapped and Fred Larson can claim another 5lb, there is no reason why she shouldn’t be thereabouts again in this higher grade race.

Queen’s Company ran well to finish 2nd on last run over C&D after a break when we thought she would have needed the run. She is in similar race here and same mark, ground will be fine. We hope she has an e/w chance again.

Heer’s Sadie has been struggling on the quick ground this summer, her last good run when she was second was on soft ground. Easy ground here and claiming 5lb with Molly Phillips but up in grade which is a worry, I hope that she will not be out classed, we take our chance and hope she runs well.

Initiate has been disappointing but she has been given too high a handicap mark, we are hoping for some improvement on slower ground and claiming 7lb with Rose Dawes. Just hoping for a better run and some encouragement.

Fen Tiger has been running well all year but the key to him is the ground and the step up in trip. He has the soft ground he needs here, stays 1m4f and Fred Larson has won on him. With all conditions right for him we hope he has an excellent chance of winning with luck in-running.

Smokey Malone has won at the track. Dylan Hogan who rides him thinks he wants this trip. He has been very consistent this year and is in the right grade. He should have a good e/w chance.

Mrs Meader has been in good form this year, back to Leicester where she ran well last run. Sam Feilden rides her and knows her well, he claims 5lb which is a bonus. Any overnight rain will help. She should have an ew chance again.

Heer’s Sadie is now below her last winning mark, she showed a return to form last run but she does like some cut in the ground ideally, first try at Southwell with Sam Feilden on board who knows her well, we think track and trip should suit her. Hopefully she has an ew chance at a good price

Three Beauz ran well first time at Yarmouth but disappointed next run at Nottingham for no apparent reason, she would need to put that run behind her but this still looks a hot race so just hoping for a better run.

Queen's Company came back from Chelmsford after her last run quite jarred up so she has been given time to recover. She has gone well at Yarmouth as a two-year-old but after the break may well run fresh so we hope she will improve for the outing.

Sunset Salute has been very disappointing and is not in love with the game. We are trying new headgear and he needs to find some improvement  or this could be his last chance.

Lady Clemmie is having her second run, again at Newmarket, as she has to run in these hot maidens. She is a daughter of Churchill and his progeny do not qualify for the restricted races. She's ready for the run and while likely to be a little short on class today, we think she will be worth following once handicapped.

The Mouse King won very nicely at Southwell ten days ago and he was put up 13lb for that in yesterday's new ratings. That looked harsh and it forced us to run here with a 6lb penalty. Sam Feilding claims 7lb again and he will need to win today to justify that big rise.

Stintino Sunset is having her second run and this looks a nice race for her. She will be more competitive once handicapped.

Fen Tiger has ben running well since he has been stepped up in trip. Ideally he is best on soft turf but that isn't happening anytime soon. He is in great form and this looks a weak race. Ross Birkett riding is a big advantage so he should be thereabouts if he gets this longer trip and handles the track.

Spanish Mane seems to have taken well to the track where she has won twice this year. She has been in good form at home and Laura Coughlan will know her better now having been on her last time. Should be thereabouts.

Non-runner

Amberdaay has been given a short break to strengthen up. The drop back to five furlongs last time proved too sharp but six furlongs on alll-weather should suit as will Fred Larsen's 5lb claim. Hopeful he has an each-way chance.

Mrs Meader has been waiting for some rain since her hood win at Newbury, Leicester seems to have got the rain which is ideal. She is in great form at home and runs well fresh. Sean Kirrane knows her well and takes off a handy 3lb. She should be thereabouts again.

Engrave loves it at Chelmsford and ran surprisingly well last week when we thought she wasn’t fit. She has now dropped to a very good mark by running at other tracks through the Summer. She should have a good ew chance with Dylan Hogan back on board.

You Didn't Did You has been given a very low handicap mark and she actually runs 10lb "wrong" in this race. It will be interesting to see how she goes in her first handicap. With Fred Larson taking off 5lb we would just like to see an improved run.

The Mouse King has been riunning well on the all-weather and looks like he can win off this handoicap mark. Sam Feilden is on board today and his 7lb claim will be a big help. Good each-way chance.

Sunset Salute has been disappointing but he still to high in the handicap. We are trying hoim on all-weather as he wants cut in the ground. He needs to find his level before being worth following.

Engrave is running back at her favourite track where she has done all her winning and she is back to her winning mark but she has had a break and usually needs the run plus there are some unexposed three year olds here. Dylan her usual jockey has chosen to ride the Michael Bell horse so we think she will improve for the run.

Heer’s Sadie won over C&D last year with Sam on board, she was slightly disappointing last run but probably because the ground was too quick, she will have an ew chance if she runs but we will have to look at the ground first.

Fen Tiger won nicely last run over his first try at 1m4f on good to soft. He is in great form at home and the 1m6f should be fine and may see more improvement but he is better with softer conditions. He has to take his chance in a weak race.

Has run to the same level of form in his two runs, he was beaten by an improver last time, the step up to 1m will suit and so long as there is not another improver in this field we would hope that he can win this race, he seems in good form at home.

Lady Clemmie is a nice Churchill filly but as result unfortunately she doesn't qualify for the Banded races so has to run in a tough fillies' stakes here. She will be a nice three-year-old and it's all about educating her today.

Has had the two runs and just needs this run for a handicap mark, hopefully she will be more competitive in handicaps in the future.

Ran well on debut to finish second, she seems to have improved for the run so would probably have the favourite to beat here, she should have an e/w chance again.

Has also been in good form this year, probably not at his best at Brighton last time when he was unlucky in running. Track & trip will suit and Adam Kirby takes over as his regular jockey has had to go elsewhere. We hope he has an ew chance again but he is on a career high mark.

Has been in great form lately, she only went up a pound for her win last time. Unfortunately Rose Dawes, who has been winning on her lately, is injured at present so Laura Coughlin takes over as the mare will only win for the girls! She seems well at home so we hope she has every chance of following up that win.

Initiate was given a third run for a handicap mark after we bought her. She has since had a break to strengthen up and it has done her good as she has come back much stronger. We are still learning with her but are hopeful of a better run today from which to build on going forward.

The Mouse King ran well two runs ago around Chelmsford and seems to run better on all-weather as he has a dirt pedigree. He has a good draw today and should be thereabouts again.

Hurricane Kiko ran a very promising race when third at 25/1 on debut at Newmarket. He has improved a lot for the run and in an ordinary-looking race should have every chance of stepping up for a first victory.

Heer’s Sadie ran better than we thought she would on soft ground as we always thought she is better on quicker ground. She has come out of the race well and actually went down a pound. Sam has won on her last season so we would hope she has a good e/w chance.

You Didn’t Did You is having only her 2nd run at 4yrs, she has had her problems but has been working well now so we hope she runs well but will be better suited once handicapped.

Three Beauz makes her debut here, she is ready for the run but probably wouldn’t be good enough to beat the two winners but will hopefully run into third place.

Is still a maiden but has been unlucky not to win in her last three runs at Lingfield only for by bumping into an improver each time. She makes her debut here at Brighton but the track should suit her front running style. She should have an e/w chance again.

Has been in great form recently at Brighton, she was unlucky not to win last time and has come out of the race well. Up in grade here but fillies handicap so a bit weaker. Rose Dawes has won on her twice and takes off a handy 7lbs. She should be thereabouts again over C&D.

Heer’s Sadie won at the track last year, she is now back on a winning mark but the 7 furlongs does stretch her. Sam has won on her and takes off a handy 7lbs just hopeful of a good run.

Engrave has always been better at Chelmsford but there are no races for her there at the moment so she is ticking over on turf, her mark is slowly dropping and hopefully she can pick up some price money here.

Seemed to take to the track well last time on her first visit, up 3lbs for that win but she is probably still well handicapped and Rose Dawes gets on well with her, back to 7f here won’t be a problem and hopefully she can follow up that win.

Ran a better race last run in first time cheek pieces but didn’t seem to get the 6f at Windsor so hopefully the drop back to five will suit. The favourite of Rod Milman’s maybe hard to beat but we hope she has an e/w chance.

Sunset Salute has had the one run for the yard and probably needed it after a break, his handicap mark is high enough so we have dropped into a claimer here. He won well over C&D last year so will hopefully show more today.

Ran well on handicap debut to finish second at Chelmsford, the form was boosted Wednesday with the winner of that race winning again at Bath. He went up 2lbs for that run but does seem to be improving providing he can transfer that form to the turf he should have a good e/w chance again.

Has been running consistently well this year. He finished second to Junoesque on his last run at Brighton beaten a length, he is 7lb better off with that horse this time. Trip and ground fine and Ross knows him well. We are hopeful of turning the form round this time.

Has been running well at Lingfield the last two starts but just bumped into a couple of improvers. She drops into a 0-50 classified here getting the three year old allowance and Fred Larson claiming 5lbs, so we hope this will be her winning opportunity.

Makes his debut here. He is a likeable horse and is now ready for a run. Looking at the race he won’t beat the favourite and it depends on how sharp the Mark Johnson horse is but we hope he can run into a place.

Spanish Mane ran well last run at Yarmouth now back on a winning mark, Rose Dawes has won on her last year and takes off a handy 7lbs, first try at Brighton but we hope this will suit because she has won twice at Leicester which is very undulating. We probably just have the favourite to beat.

Engrave has always been very consistent but hasn’t managed to win on the turf yet but has gone close a few times, ground should be ideal and she stays further plus Ross has won on her in the past. Hopefully she has a good e/w chance.

Mrs Meader has been unlucky not to have won yet. She has run some great races especially for Ross who rides here, there looks to be plenty of pace which will be ideal as she stays further, ground ideal so hopefully she has a good e/w chance again.

Was bought cheaply at the sales last year. He has been given plenty of time - maybe a bit high in the handicap, we will learn about him after this run to go forward.

Has shown some promise in his three novices - makes his handicap debut here but his rating maybe higher than we had hoped. We will know more after this run.

Has been in great form lately, he only went up 2lb for his win last time and the second has won well since, this looks a weaker race and he is just as effective on the AW so we hope he can follow up here.

Just bumped into an improver last run that has won twice since. She is very well since that run and if she stays the extra furlong should have a good chance of getting off the mark in a weak looking race.

Queen’s Company is a filly we have always liked, she has had excuses for her two runs this year, she hated the soft ground at Redcar last run but did drop 3lbs so we would expect a much better run here, the drop back to 7f will suit as well.

Was badly hampered at the start on her debut at Kempton, travelled well through the race before getting tired. She has improved for that run and will run better this time.

Has been waiting a long time for soft ground and so has just been ticking over on the AW, good apprentice on board with Fred Larson and if he gets the trip will be thereabouts.

Ran well at Yarmouth last run over 1m, she is better suited by this 7 f but is up in grade, Rose Dawes takes off 7 lbs again so we hope she has an e/w chance again.

Amberdaay ran a very encouraging race first time out at Nottingham but then got very upset in the stalls next time at Bath, she wasn’t beaten far but cut her hind legs which didn’t help her. She will be going in the stalls late here, we have added cheek pieces because she doesn’t like being crowded so she won’t be able to see other horses. We hope she has a small ew chance this time.

Arpina has been running well in this grade without winning. We thought the drop back to six furlongs would help her last time but she didn't have the pace. Lingfield should suit and the step back up to seven in a weak-looking race offers hope. Fred Larson takes off a handy 5lb so hopefully a small each-way chance.

Engrave is very consistent but is yet to win on turf, she is in good form and this is a nice little race for her to pick up some more prize money.

Smokey Malone ran well at the track last run and was unlucky when he was stopped in his run late on in the race. He dropped a pound so gets into this grade, trip will suit so hoping for a big run again.

Makes her racecourse debut, she has been professional at home and this a good race to start her off, she will be worth following once handicapped.

Has dropped into this lower grade for the first time in a while, she needed her seasonal debut run and he’s done well since. Rose Dawes won on her last year and takes off a handy 7lbs. She should have a good ew chance here.

Has been very frustrating and we can’t understand why he hasn’t won yet, he is a very good work horse at home. Good draw and Dylan knows him well, we have added cheek pieces to help him concentrate. He should be thereabouts again but on his rating he hope he can win!

Makes her seasonal debut here after a Winter break, she has done very well and has grown & much stronger this year but that said she will probably need the run but is well worth following this year as she is probably well handicapped.

Amberdaay ran on well on her debut run after running very green early on in the race, she has learnt plenty for the experience, the ground will be fine and if the favourite doesn’t go on the quick ground she should run a big race.

Arpina has been consistent since handicapping, the drop back to 6f will suit as she hasn’t been seeing out the 7f, right grade and track so she should be our best chance of a winner on the day.

Engrave has been a star at Chelmsford but she will win elsewhere, Wolverhampton will suit and trip should be fine but the favourite will probably be hard to beat but she will give her a race.

The Mouse King is having his third run here for a handicap mark, his second run on seasons debut was promising, he will be worth following once handicapped.

Makes her seasonal debut at her favourite track, she does however usually need her first run. Rose Dawes claiming 7lb is back on her after winning at Leicester last year, ground will suit, just hope for a good run to build on for the year ahead.

Is now down to his lowest mark. Hollie Doyle suggested last run that we drop him back to 7f which is the trip here. Sean Kirrane gets on well with him so hopeful of a good run before he probably retires to a good home.

Usually runs his race when conditions suit, there should be plenty of pace here which will suit and he has run well at the track previously, he is probably on a winning mark again and is in the right grade. We hope he has an e/w chance at a good price.

Mrs Meader ran well on her seasonal debut last time over a trip too short. Back over 1m3f will suit as will the galloping track, she doesn’t have a great record on the All Weather but the ground on the turf is too quick for her at present but new surface on slow side should suit. We hope she will be thereabouts before returning to the turf when the rain arrives!

Is our first 2 year-old runner of the year. She is quite sharp and knows her job. Our juveniles are never fired up to win first but she should outrun her odds.

Queen’s Company is a filly we like, the form of her Kempton run has worked out well. She will come on for the run but hopefully will show promise for the season ahead.

Smokey Malone won well here over C&D two runs ago, he had no luck in running last time at Wolves. He is well at home and providing he can drop in from a wide draw he should have an ew chance.

The Mouse King had one run at Newmarket last year. He has had the Winter off to mature and his work has been good at home. This looks a hot race for the grade but he should outrun his odds. He will be worth following once handicapped.

Engrave has had a short break as there have been no races at Chelmsford lately, a track that she loves. A class 4 fillies handicap here but doesn’t look that grade, she is well at home but tends to just run a bit fresh after a break so just hopeful that she can finish in the money.

Mrs Meader is coming back from a Winter break. We have dropped her back to 1m because she is usually fresh & keen on her first run but this should suit on the soft ground. Her work at home has been good so she may have an e/w chance.

Is a horse I have always loved and was delighted with his debut last year. He has done well through the winter and will love the ground and step up in trip. He can go well

Has shown consistent form here at Chelmsford - the 1m2f seems ideal too. He is drawn quite wide but hopefully he will be handy in a race that looks fairly weak. Jo Mason takes off a handy 3lbs too so we hope he has an e/w chance again.

Has been disappointing since handicapping after showing promise in her novices but to be fair to her she had the widest draw for her last four runs. Better run here in draw 6 so just hope for a better showing.

Fen Tiger has been steadily improving, a good run last time and stays on the same mark, he certainly works better than his mark at home! We have a good draw here and Tyler has ridden him before, we would hope he has a good each way chance.

Oud Metha Bridge is hard to predict and it depends what mood he is in on the day. Won well New Year's Day and is still well handicapped and is better than this grade on his day. Just hoping he is in on a going day as he has been working well at home.

Initiate makes her debut for the yard here, we bought her at the February sales and as she had run quite recently we thought we would make use of that and give her the third run for a handicap mark. She has a willing attitude and we hope she could run into a place. The favourite looks hard to beat.

Arpina has been running well this year but has struggled to win, she meets two horses that have beaten her this year on slightly better terms, she has a good draw and runs well for Dylan so we hope she has an e/w chance again.

Has been in good form this year. He is a tricky ride and is usually ridden by Dylan Hogan but Ross rides him most days at home so knows him well, we think this sort of race should suit his running style and Ross is always a bonus in Amateur races. With luck in running he should have a good e/w chance.

Fen Tiger looked to be improving at the end of the year, he was given a break and came back last time to run ok over an inadequate trip, back here over 1m2f and good draw in 1 with top amateur Ross Birkett on board we hope he breaks his maiden tag.

Hot Romance has been so unlucky with the draws for her last few runs, again she is 15 of 15 here. She will need everything to go right for her to be competitive here but we are claiming 5lbs with a good apprentice with Harry Burns.

Engrave always saves her best for Chelmsford, she has been running well in this grade putting up a career best last time at Southwell, she remains in good form at home so we hope she will be in the shake up again.

Arpina showed improvement a couple of runs ago when making the running but missed the break last time and ended up running wide, so providing she jumps well this time should be thereabouts, Dylan rode her when she was second and gets on well with her.

Has been running consistently well, he had to take on better horses last run in a better grade but still ran well, a drop of 1lb sees him get into this 0-55 grade and Dylan Hogan gets on well with him. Drop in trip will be fine, he has a good ew chance but the favourite maybe hard to beat.

Arpina showed some improvement last run over C&D with a great ride from Dylan Hogan, unfortunately he is unable to do the weight this time. She meets three of the horses that finished behind her last run but we are taking off 7lbs with Fred Larson, hopefully she can show that it wasn’t a fluke and go one better!

Has been a bit disappointing since handicapping, we dropped her back to 6f last run because it looked like she didn’t stay 7f the time before but could not go the pace over 6f. Reverting back to 7f in a very weak race, Dylan knows her well so just hoping for a better run.

Fen Tiger was improving at the end of last year, he has had a break and seems in good form at home. New surface should suit and conditions of race ideal. Sam takes off a handy 7lbs and he has run well for him in the past. We hope he has an e/w chance here.

Ran well over C&D last run after a break, he has come on for the run and has a better draw this time as he likes to have cover. Hopefully he has an e/w chance at a nice price.

Looks competitive but OMB heads here in winning form after a top win here last time out. Up just 2lbs for that but seemed to have a bit more in hand than the neck margin last time - was always doing enough. Has won off a bit higher in the past so more than capable and draw 3 looks ideal. We should have a decent e/w chance again.

Likely to be the outsider of five here but certainly not without a chace. Has been running well with a recent second at Chelmsford another solid effort and is only a pound higher here. Into a slightly better race and will need to stay the longer trip with better recent runs coming over 1m2f. But if Dylan can switch him off and come with a late run then not without place claims.

Engrave loves this track having won here over C&D 5 times but of course she has paid the price with the handicapper so is now up in grade, she does tend to struggle in this grade, so just hoping for a good run again with Dylan Hogan who gets on so well with her.

Hot Romance ran well over C&D in a novice but has been disappointing since handicapping, we have fitted blinkers here in the hope of some improvement, Fred Larson rode her last run so rides her again taking off 7lbs. Just hoping for a better run.

Maeve’s Memory is running for the first time for the yard. She has only raced over 5 or 6f but on her work at home we feel she will be better over 1m, if so she should prove to be well handicapped. Sam Feilden takes off a useful 7lbs and knows her well from riding her at home. We hope she has an ew chance at a good price.

Oud Metha Bridge is now very well handicapped, this is his first run in this low a grade. He has been losing his races at the start by being slowly away at Kempton. Back at Southwell where he has run well in the past on a slower surface will suit, he is well at home so we hope he has a good e/w chance at a good price.

Arpina ran better last run after a break, she didn’t seem to get home over the 7f so the drop back to 6f will suit, 2lb drop in the weights, we hope to find the key to her as she does have some ability, we hope she can run into a place with Fred Larson taking off a valuable 7lbs.

Has been given a break since the turf season with the aim to run at Southwell, he won here on the old surface and is suited to this galloping track. The trip will be no problem and we have switched head gear to cheek pieces for a change of headgear. We hope he has an each way chance here.

Won last time at her favourite track Chelmsford, the first three from that race meet again and we are on slightly worse terms and again have the widest draw. She is in great form at home and Ross riding her is a plus in these amateur races, first run at Wolverhampton for her but should be fine, it will be a close call again but hopefully she should be in the shake up.

Is still lightly race and unexposed, she didn’t have much luck in running last run on her handicap debut. We are still not sure if 7f or 1m is her trip but this galloping track should suit. Cheek pieces on to help her concentrate so just hoping for some progress in this hot division for the grade.

Loves this C&D, her last two runs have been solid. Wide draw here but so are the fancied horses. Ross knows her well and providing she takes the quick return to the track she should have another good e/w chance.

Has been given a break to strengthen up as she wasn’t finishing her races. Her work at home has been much better. The extra furlong should be a plus and cheek pieces added to help her concentrate. Hopefully she will improve here.

Is back at her favourite track - she has done all her winning here but unfortunately the handicapper raised her 3lbs for finishing second on her last run so she now has to run in a higher grade. She's in good form at home and she hopefully has an e/w chance again.

Heer’s Sadie has been running consistently through the year, she has had a few weeks break so comes here fresh and well. She has run well over C&D, has a good draw and good amateur in Ross on board, so we hope she has a good ew chance.

Queen’s Company is a filly we like a lot, she ran a lovely race on debut and then had an injury which kept her off the track until her last run at Chelmsford where she needed the run but was also very unlucky in running being hampered two furlongs out. She has come out of the race well and should be better suited by Kempton and also from a bit of weight allowance. We would hope she has a good e/w chance at a nice price.

Ran well last time on soft ground at Nottingham and was unlucky not to win but this is different being on the AW which is an unknown for him. We haven’t been able to get into a race on turf so this is the only option. Just hoping he can show same form here.

Loves it here at Chelmsford, she hasn’t been able to get into this grade for a long time, she carries weight well and is in good form at home, Hope she has a good e/w chance.

Is making her handicap debut, she ran well here over C&D, she has just been given time since her third run, she is in the right grade but has plenty of weight so are just hoping for a good run.

Made a very pleasing debut at Yarmouth in the Summer, she has been given time to strengthen up since. She may just need the run but should still run well and will hopefully be in the mix.

Has been a slow maturing filly who has needed time, we have finally got her to the racetrack and just want her to get amongst horses and learn from the experience.

Is back down into this grade thanks to the race dividing. He is in great form at home and goes well at Kempton he usually comes good at this time of year. He should have a good chance of being in the shake up again.

Mrs Meader has excuses for her last two runs - she doesn't like the all-weather and Haydock was too firm - but she was beaten by only a nose the time before at Windsor. That was a similar race to today's and she is working well at home and the ground is ideal so we think she has a great each-way chance.

Is at her best here at Chelmsford - she found herself handicapped out of winning with two successes at the track - as there have been no races for her here we have had to run her elsewhere so she is back down to a winning mark. She is very well at home so we hope she will be thereabouts here again where Dylan Hogan takes over again.

Makes his debut here, ready for a run but one for next year and here to learn for the experience.

Is a lovely Time Test filly she is still a little weak but is ready for a run for experience before being put away for next year.

Won an apprentice handicap well two runs ago, not so good last run but came home with an infection, this run may have come a week too soon but we have to take our chance as time running out on the turf. She wouldn’t want any rain.

Has been unlucky not to win this year but has been running consistently all season, she probably didn’t get the trip last run on soft ground. Back to 6f here a positive and cheek pieces added to help her concentrate. We hope she will be thereabouts again.

Remains in good form at home, we ran her on the AW last run because it was the only race we could go for where she didn’t have a penalty for winning an apprentice race. She is probably best on turf and although she is now 3lb higher Rose Dawes who won on her can claim 7lbs. We would not want any rain, if conditions right she should have e/w chance.

Has been running consistently well this year since handicapping over 6f or 7f, the more the ground dries out the better, Pam Sly’s horse is probably the one to beat but she is probably our best chance of the day.

Back at his favourite track, he has been given a short break as he runs best fresh, he is on a career low mark and the ground will be perfect for him, Dylan knows him well so we would hope he has an e/w chance again.

Has been given time to freshen up after a flat run last time, he has run well over C&D and always seems better suited in a big field as they tend to go a good pace. He has a good draw and Dylan knows him well so we hope he has an ew chance again.

Has been waiting for this ground since his first run as a two year old and has never had it since then. He has consequently become very well handicapped. With all the conditions in his favour and Sam able to claim 5lbs he would have a good each way chance at a big price.

Has always been best at Chelmsford but there have been no races for her there recently so we are just keeping her ticking over before she goes back there. Sam takes the ride in this apprentice race.

Has been consistent when conditions are right for her, the ground ended up too firm last run but she came out of the race well, she is back on the AW here over the right trip in the right grade, we would hope she has an e/w chance here if there is plenty of pace.

Has been disappointing since his first run however now dropping in the handicap to a more competitive mark, he has a good draw here but just hoping for a better run.

Nothing to shout about from opening two runs but is learning all the time. Has been gelded since last run and third run here means he'll get a handicap mark after this and will be much more competitive thereafter. We hope he behaves better today too after recent runs, but being gelded should help on that score. One for the future.

Has come out of her win at Leicester last week very well, because that was an apprentice race she gets in here without a penalty also Emma Taff can claim 7lbs, she is due to go up 3lbs in the handicap. However, she has never won on the All Weather but has run well at Kempton on here only try. Here’s hoping she can follow up that win.

Has been tried over a variety of trips, she is proving very exposed but has a good draw so we just hopeful of a better run with Dylan Hogan on board.

Is only moderate but does try, she has finished in the first eight in all bar one of her starts so at least she picks up some prize money and gives the racing club some fun. She has a good draw so just hoping for a good run round and top eight again with Sam claiming 7lbs.

Is now back to a pound below her last winning mark which was in this race last year. The race is for jockeys that have not ridden more than 10 winners so Rosie Dawes rides here as Spanish has only ever won for lady riders. She is in great form at home and providing the ground stays on the quick side she should have a good e/w chance.

Has shown a bit of form over 1m now trying 1m2f for the first time which is worth a try, tongue tie back on and just hoping for a good run.

Is on a very competitive mark now and is best carry top weight in a low grade race, her half-sister won a few times here so we are trying this track for the first time, Sean Kirrane taking off 5lbs, she is often slowly away but if she keeps In touch should stay on well at the finish, she is probably our best chance tonight.

Ran okay in first time visors last run, coming down to a competitive mark now, we have a good draw here and he has run well on aw so just hoping for a good run.

Is a filly we like a lot and has been improving with every run. She didn't seem to quite get home over 7f last time so the drop back to 6f here will suit - especially if there is a slow surface. The favourite from the Rae Guest yard maybe hard to beat but we hope she will be thereabouts again here today.

Has been disappointing, we thought he would come good with time but that has not proved the case, he has run better on Aw and he now has first time blinkers and trying the female touch with Ellie MacKenzie claiming 5lbs so just hoping for a better run here.

Is only moderate but does try, she runs here in a lowly grade sprint with Sam claiming the 7lbs, she has a good draw in one, we have left off the cheek pieces this time because she didn’t seem to face them last run. Just hoping for a better run.

Ran flat last run probably because we ran him back too quick before that he has been very consistent, we have given him a short break and he is well at home, not a great draw but he is better held up - so we hope they go a good pace and he has an e/w chance again.

Paid the price of a good run first time and has struggled since with his handicap mark. Has a good draw here and visor fitted to help him concentrate, just hoping for a better run.

Having his second career run, he has improved for his first run but will be worth following when handicapped.

Has been slightly disappointing since we bought but had an enforced break due to an injury and came back to a better run last time at Yarmouth despite being slowly away, her form is best on the AW so if she jumps away better this time should have a good e/w chance in what looks a weak seller.

Was very unlucky not to win last run at Windsor with Ross on board, she went up 2lbs for that but probably still remains well handicapped, this is a similar race with Ross back on board so we hope she can go one better here as she seems in great form at home!

Gave Sam his first winner last run, went up 4lb for that win and now up in grade but she has come out of that race well and hopefully will have an e/w chance again.

Loves Yarmouth but has paid the price of her wins last year by going up in the handicap, now dropped down to a winning mark again and Saffie Osborne claiming 5lbs, she won on her last year. This filly will only win for the girls so hopefully has a good e/w chance.

Has been running at Kempton lately but seems to have got sick of the place getting himself slowly away the last twice. Hoping a return to Yarmouth will spark him into action again and find him form. Small field will suit and wide draw best for him, he is well handicapped now so should be competitive if in the right mood!

Ran well last run at Chelmsford after a summer break, saves her best at that track but there are no races for her there until October so she heads to Yarmouth, she has run well over C&D last year but has yet to win on turf, she should be thereabouts in this small field with Sam taking off 7lbs.

Showed an improved run on her second start last time at this track. Having her third run here for a handicap mark in what looks a hot maiden.

Hasn’t shown much in five runs so far, he does work better at home so there is some ability there so we have applied blinkers in the hope that he can show some improvement, Sam takes off 7lbs and he will be better suited by the step up in trip.

Makes his racecourse debut here today - right track and trip so hopefully he can get amongst horses and learn something - one for the future.

Has ability but is quite ground dependent and does like some cut in the ground, she is now able to drop into this grade and the 1m will suit, looks a weak race so we hope she has an e/w chance, probably our best chance of the day.

Has run well since stepped up to 1m, drop back to 7f not ideal but so long as she has cover she should stay on at the finish and hopefully run into a place again.

Returns to the track after injury, she has now dropped to a career low mark and first time in this grade, she is ready for the run and cheek pieces back on but she will probably improve for the run.

Dilly Rosa is quite moderate but she does try, there are a few in this grade which maybe hard to beat but we have fitted cheek pieces to hopefully sharpen her up over a drop back to 6f, just hopeful to finish first 8 for prize money!

Cabrini has been running well since handicapping, but we felt she was probably a few pounds too high, she has now been able to drop into this grade and proved that she handles the AW fine last run so would hope she has a good eachway chance here although we could have done with a better draw.

Has had a summer break after having a busy winter, she has been creeping up the handicap after two C&D wins. She probably needs to come down in grade to be competitive again but Sam takes off 7lbs to help her, she usually comes on for the run after a break as she tends to put on plenty of condition.

Is a filly we have always liked, she was probably given a handicap mark that is high enough but now dropped a couple of pounds, she ran well last run on ground that was probably too soft, she makes her AW debut here which should suit as all the siblings have won on it. We hope she can get off the mark here.

Is moderate but she does try, if she is ever going to be thereabouts it is here, C&D fine, draw good and Sam Feilden able to claim 7lbs in an apprentice race which is a bonus, she has run well for him previously, she could be an e/w chance at a massive price.

Had been running consistently well until her last run when the race was run at a ridiculously slow pace which turned into a sprint which didn’t suit, plenty of pace here, soft ground will suit and she has run well here on her only try. Ross knows her well and wants to try her without her usual hood, we hope she has a good e/w chance again.

Arpina makes her handicap debut here, the mark seems quite fair, she is quite speedy and we hope this easy 6f first time on the AW will suit, nice draw and Joey Haynes back on board. We hope she can get competitive now.

Has been running well since handicapping, she has been looking like she should win soon, Sam Feilden is the only rider able to claim 5lbs which is a big advantage and he knows her well after finishing third on her in a close finish at Kempton a couple of runs ago. Good ew chance we hope.

Missed the break last run and never got involved due to a cross noseband we were trying and it seems he didn’t face it. Hopefully he can make amends this time and run the same race when he was second the time before. He should be an e/w price.

Got no luck in-running last time after looking quite promising the time before when tried over 1m, hopefully with better luck this time she may run a better race.

Has been disappointing and is proving to be well exposed, track and trip will suit but needs to up his game to be competitive here.

Has been in great form this year, he has been beaten the last couple of runs because of small fields so should be better suited with more runners here, he should be thereabouts again here with Dylan Hogan taking off the 3lbs.

Oud Metha Bridge loves it at Kempton he was unlucky here last run when he was shuffled back and had too much ground to make up but still ran well, back over C&D in the same grade should see him with a good chance again with Sean Kirrane taking off a handy 5lbs again.

Is having just her second career run, she showed promise on her first run and has improved. She is more of a long term project and will be worth following once handicapped.

Ran better when stepped up to 1m at the track last run - hopefully she can build on that run with George Rooke taking off a handy 3lbs.

Ran well on her handicap debut and was not beaten far but she appeared to not get the mile that day so a drop back to 7f should be ideal in this fillies handicap. She is well at home and any rain will help so we hope she can break her maiden tag here.

Runs as the ground has changed to 'good to soft' which is what she wants, she didn’t handle the track at Chepstow last run and the ground was too firm the time before so has had excuses. Amateur race should suit and good jockey on board with Ross. We hope she can now find some form today.

Would appreciate a little rain, he has been running consistently well this year without winning. The stuff Ascot 7f should suit and we have a good Amateur in Sarah Bowen on board. Hopefully he has an e/w chance again.

Has been improving with racing, he went up 2lb for his last run but still qualifies for this grade, needs a strong pace to run at which will happen, hopefully he will break his maiden tag with Dylan Hogan on board.

Runs in same race as Fen Tiger, she has been disappointing this year but has been dropping back down the handicap, we are trying headgear with cheek pieces for the first time and Sam Feilden takes off the 7lb, just hoping for a better run.

Comes here in good form, he probably didn’t handle the track at Brighton last run. We are stepping up slightly in trip here but he finished strongly over 1m2f when winning at Nottingham so should be fine. Dylan Hogan knows him well and is in great form at the moment. We hope they can get back to winning ways.

Ran ok last run but looked a little outclassed, dropped in grade here and upped to 7f should help him, draw looks fine and David Probert on board he should have an ew chance but the Sir Mark favourite will be hard to beat.

Has run well on both her handicap runs, we would like to have run her on turf but the ground is too quick for her at present. She is very well and has a good draw, Dylan takes off a handy 3lbs so we would hope she has a good e/w chance.

Has been running consistently this year, she didn’t get home over 1m4f last run so the drop back to 1m2f should be ideal with some cut in the ground. We take off 7lbs with Sam Feilden’s claim so she looks to have a good chance of getting off the mark for both of them!

Has been waiting for some ease in the ground, it was too quick for her last run but it means she has dropped nicely into this grade, she is back on a winning mark and running over her best trip. She has a good e/w chance at a nice price.

Ran well here over 1m6f last run and seems to go well on the track a step up to 2m should suit and taking 5lbs off with R. Clutterbuck so hope she has an e/w chance again.

Has been tried over various trips with a selection of headgear so one last chance here over 1m1f, just hopeful of a better run

Alibaba has been running consistently well this year, the track and trip should suit but he wouldn’t want too much rain. Should be thereabouts again but the Archie Watson horse will be hard to beat.

Sir Gregory ran well on debut over course & distance to finish third and has probably paid the price with his handicap mark, looks a tough race and better watched until he comes down a few pounds in the weights.

Ran a better race a Wolverhampton last run for the step up in trip and Ross onboard. This looks a good opportunity for her but the only concern is the ground as it's an unknown - if she handles it she should have an e/w chance.

Goes well at Kempton and is in the right grade, Sean Kirrane takes off a handy 5lbs and knows him well having won on him in the past, he should have a good e/w chance here.

Showed plenty of speed over 6f last time at Newmarket so the drop back to 5f will suit, looks a competitive heat but she will outrun her odds and will qualify for nurseries after this run.

Has been disappointing over sprint trips but did seem to be running on at Chelmsford on Sunday over 1m with an inexperienced apprentice, Dylan Hogan takes over here so hopefully she will show a bit more.

Saray Prince is lowly rated but unexposed, this is his first run on the turf and he does work better on grass at home, he is getting loads of weight with Sam claiming 7lbs, any rain will help but I wouldn’t be surprised if he outruns his odds.

Wasn't suited by the quick ground last time - he is in the right grade here and Royston knows him well. He will appreciate any rain and if it arrives will bounce back to form. So we hope he would have an e/w chance here if conditions suit.

Hasn't shown much form since handicapping - trying a new trip here with an inexperienced apprentice riding. So would need to show something before she is worth following.

Has had two handicap runs over nearly 1m4f but both times didn't appear to get the trip after travelling into the race really well, so we are dropping back to 1n2f here. He does appear to be well-handicapped and now needs to show it. A better run is expected here so we hope he has a good e/w chance.

Has been a star this year and is very tough, he went up 6lbs for his easy win last run when stepped up in trip. Goes on any ground so hopeful of going close again here in a tricky looking handicap.

Has been disappointing so far this year and not sure why, Sam gets to ride her again here and takes off a handy 7lbs. She wouldn’t want soft ground so keeping an eye on the ground. We are just hopeful of a better run.

Spanish Mane has struggled this year off her handicap mark, she is getting back to a winnable mark and seems to go best for the girls so Saffie Osborne back on board after winning on her last year. We have also fitted cheek pieces to help her travel in the race, hopeful of an e/w chance.

Dilly Rosa has been improving in her races despite her handicap mark which never seems to go up, she actually drops in grade her and 6f and Sam taking off 7lbs will hopefully see her run a good race.

Queens Company is a nice filly we bought from the Guineas Breeze Up sale, she has been very straightforward and is now ready for a run, she goes well and will outrun her odds.

Is a filly we have always like and the penny seemed to drop last run with an eye catching third place at Yarmouth. Handicap debut here and the step back up to a mile will suit, we are not sure if she is a few pounds too high but we will learn here but hope she has an e/w chance.

Arpina showed plenty of speed last run and seems to have improved for the run, a step up to 6f will suit, she will probably be worth following once handicapped.

Ran well on handicap debut on ground that was probably a bit quick for her, the step up to 7f here should suit, she has a good draw and Sam can claim the 7lbs, would love to see her give Sam his first winner.

Has not shown much since running for the yard, she probably didn’t stay last run so dropping back in trip here with cheek pieces replacing blinkers, just hoping for a better run.

Has been slow to mature like her full brother - Gas Monkey. She ran a good race on ground that was probably too quick. She will be better suited by this ground and trip and seems to have come out of her Newbury race well. We hope she has a good chance to break her duck here with Ross back riding.

Is quite lightly-raced and is now well-handicapped. The trip and track will suit, as will the fast pace to run at. She is in good form at home and we would hope she has an e/w chance with Ross onboard today. But the favourite - Tamaamm - will be hard for us all to beat.

Ran well the last run and now looks on a winning mark - Sam knows him well and takes off a useful 7lbs from his topweight. Any rain will be a help as he wouldn't want firm ground - Each-way chance.

Has been very consistent this year and ran a good race to be third at Nottingham last run - he steps up to 1m2f here because it does look a weak race and if he gets the trip will have an e/w chance.

Raha was unlucky in running last time when squeezed out when coming with her run and her chance was over, she would have preferred some cut in the ground but takes her chance and hopefully has an e/w chance here in a weak looking race.

Mrs Meader ran a better race at Yarmouth last run and settled much better early on, we have been very lucky in this race having won it 5 times and Ross who rides her has won it 4 times including twice on Mrs Meader’s dam. She would probably have preferred softer ground but looks quite a weak race so we think she has a good e/w chance.

Fen Tiger is a horse we like, he ran well on handicap debut but probably had to sit further back than ideal to get him settled, a small field here will suit but he is probably better on softer ground, we take our chance for some prize money here

Has run well on his first two starts and has come out of his Redcar maiden well, he will be thereabouts again but will get a handicap mark after this run.

Paintball Wizard ran well to finish 3rd last run to Dereham, we are now 11lbs better off so hope that puts us in with a chance, he has only raced on soft ground but his action suggests he will go on the ground, hopefully an e/w chance.

Has been disappointing since handicapping and would need to show something before being a betting prospect, looks a weak race but just hoping for a better run.

Dilly Rosa is better than her handicap mark but the handicapper doesn’t think so and keep dropping her rating which is frustrating when trying to get in a race, Sam takes off 7lbs to help her so just hopeful of a good run to go up in the ratings!!

Heer’s Sadie is a filly we like and we think she has a good handicap mark, she seems to be in the tougher division and Berrtie looks well in at the weights, we are hoping for a good run on handicap debut if the ground isn’t too quick for her.

Oud Metha Bridge did not handle the track at Pontefract last run, he has come out of the race well and drops back down in grade here, Sean Kirrane has won on him before and gets on well with him, back at his favoured track and small field he should have an e/w chance again.

Hot Romance looked like being an early two year old when we bought her as a yearling but she never stopped growing and went weak, so we have given her time and she makes her debut today, it will be a learning experience and she will improve for the run.

Is a filly we like a lot and will be worth following after she has this third run for a handicap mark.

Ran well on his first run after a break, he is now coming back to a competitive mark but he wouldn’t want the ground to be too quick, so just hopeful of an e/w chance if the ground is ok.

Was purchased at the Guineas breeze up sale and has been very straight forward, ready for a run now and she will come on for the experience.

Does go well here, she is probably paying the penalty of three wins last year but we are taking off 7lbs with Sam which hopefully will help and she does go well for inexperienced riders, hopeful of an e/w chance.

Shifting Gold ran over a trip shorter than ideal on first run for the yard but she dropped three pounds so now gets into this grade, the trip and track ideal and Sam able to claim the 10lbs so hopeful of an e/w chance here.

Sir Gregory makes the trip up to Redcar, he ran well on debut to finish an eye catching third, he has gone through a growing spurt since and went a bit weak, he has been working well again now but one or two maybe hard to beat here, so just hoping for a good run.

Oud Metha Bridge is becoming well handicapped again, this is his first try at Pontefract because there are no suitable races for him at Yarmouth, he is well at home and should have the soft ground that he needs. Sean Kirrane back on board having won on him in the past, he should have an e/w chance at a nice price.

Raha is back on a winning mark, she likes cut in the ground and a straight track, I would have preferred 7f rather than the mile but she is in great form at home and if she stays has a good e/w chance.

Fen Tiger is making his handicap debut, we like him and think this step up in trip and handicap mark ideal, he probably has the favourite to beat but if 8 runners we think he has e/w chance at a big price.

In the right grade and has run consistently since being fitted with blinkers. He is well at home and the ground is an unknown but he likes Southwell so we would hope he acts on any ground. He should have an e/w chance in this grade.

Is a filly we like and she just needs this third run for a handicap mark after which she will be worth following in the right grade.

Winter Snowdrop has won over C&D and like most of our runners needed the run after a Winter break. Sam Feilden takes off a handy 7lbs and knows her well so everyone would be willing him to ride his first winner!

Engrave seems to save her best runs for Chelmsford being a C&D winner four times here. However, steps into a much higher grade today but she seems in good form at home so we hope for a good run.

Ran better for eyeshields and hold-up tactics last time out. The trip and ground should suit but we would like her to show some form and be competitive in this grade before backing her.

Has been a very slow maturing horse, he ran well last run after a Winter holiday and will be better suited now back on turf on a galloping track, we hope he will outrun his odds.

Is quite lightly raced and probably ran too fresh lash run after a long break. She seems to have settled down in her work at home. The trip & track should suit and any rain will be a bonus. We are hoping for a better run as she is on a good handicap mark now.

Didn't seem to get the trip last time so dropped back in distance and grade here -blinkers are also applied so jut hopeful of a better run.

Has been running fairly consistently in a low grade - she tries hard and George Rooke knows her well. If she handles the track and the ground we are hopeful of a good run.

Is a filly we like a lot but she needs two more runs to be handicapped - handy to run at Newmarket but looking forward to seeing her in a handicap.

Spanish Mane has come on for her latest run and needed the race, she is in good form at home and should run well but wouldn’t want the forecast rain and probably won’t run if the ground turned soft.

Heer’s Sadie is a filly we like a lot for the future, she will have a handicap mark after this run and will be well worth following in handicaps.

Engrave has been a star and very consistent through the Winter, now back on turf and quite unexposed on grass, the easy ground will suit and she has a good draw, the only negative is that she has to give plenty of weight away to the three year olds but she is well so hopeful of a good run again.

Shifting Gold is having her first run for the yard, she has settled in well since we bought her and seems suited by softer conditions, Sam takes off 7lbs and she seems very straightforward, we will learn more after this run but hope she runs well.

Was running over too short a trip last run but ran on well, she has now dropped into this grade and the step up in distance will suit, Holly Doyle a positive booking so we hope she has an e/w chance.

Has been disappointing since handicapping, we have swapped blinkers for eyeshields and will ride him differently. Sam knows him and takes off a handy 7lbs so just hoping for a better run.

Has been ready to run for a while but he is ground dependent and with no rain he is having to go back to Southwell. He has run well here before and this is the right grade for him. He is very well at home and runs well fresh so we hope he has an e/w chance.

Dilly Rosa came back from her third run quite sick so we have given her time to recover, she has been working nicely at home and with Sam taking off 7lb we hope she runs well because she is too low in the ratings and needs to go up to get into future races.

Fen Tiger is having his third run and has matured well over the Winter, he will probably want further in future and will be well worth following once handicapped as we do like him.

Paintball Wizard has been very lightly raced because he has been very slow maturing, we would have preferred to have run on turf but he was balloted out, so Ross on board in this Amateur Handicap, hopefully he can get on the front end because all he does is gallop, just hoping for a good run to go forward.

Has been improving through the winter - it has been mainly at Southwell but he has grown up and got stronger for his break. We hope that Brighton will suit him as he's a free-running horse and should travel well round here. Dylan Hogan a plus in the saddle as he knows him well and is one of the most experienced apprentices in this race. We would hope he has an e/w chance here.

Alibaba ran well here as a two year just getting touched off on the line, he has had a Winter break and is now ready to run, he would have liked some rain but we hope for a good run to start the season.

Mrs Meader is full sister to our sadly lost Gas Monkey, she ran a lovely race on yard debut at Newmarket but came back with an injury that has kept her off the track until now. She has been working well but could have done with some rain, small field will suit and she will probably need further but we take our chance and hope for a good run to go forward.

Cabrini is a lovely filly that we bought in December sales out of Simon Crisfords’s yard, she is well bred and needed time, so we gave her the Winter break, she has been working well but she will learn plenty here in a hot novice and will be well worth following when she is handicapped.

Winter Snowdrop had a good season last year and is getting better with age, she has had a Winter break but has been working well, this is her grade and track so we hope she is the best chance of our runners today.

Has been disappointing after showing promise in his novices. This is probably his last chance and we can see if the quicker ground on turf brings any improvement - just hoping for a better run.

Field of Berries is a new recruit to the yard, she is lowly rated and has probably needed time so today will be a learning curve with her, we hope she can show some promise.

Spanish Mane was a superstar last year winning three times, she has had a Winter break and has been working better than ever, she likes being ridden by the girls so my nephew has his first ride as an apprentice on her but joking apart she prefers not to be bullied so should be an ideal ride for him, hopefully she will be thereabouts and get him started.

Can be forgiven for her last run when she didn't handle the home bend and was eased by the jockey. She will be better suited by this galloping track. The jockey has ridden her before so knows her now. She hopefully has an each-way chance here today.

Ran well for much of the race last time, but didn't see out the 6f trip, so the drop back to 5f should be a help. Just looking for some improvement not on the turf.

Is having her second start here. She has improved for her first run and will be suited by the drop to 6f. She will outrun her odds here and will be worth following when handicapped.

Won well last week and went up 7lbs which was a bit harsh so we have to go here today under a penalty, but this is a lower grade than last week and she will not qualify for this grade again. She is a big filly so can carry the weight. She seems to have come out of the race well and hopefully will follow up that win.

Valletta Sunset has been so frustrating he works better than he has shown on the racetrack, he is up in trip here in a weak race and Sam knows him very well, just hoping that the distance will show some improvement even though he’s not bred for it.

Is well suited by this CD - she has been running consistently all winter and seems well at home. A good draw here so we hope she has a good e/w chance.

Has more ability than he has shown on the racetrack - ran better last run when making the running so will try and adopt the same tactics with the cheekpieces reapplied. Just hopeful of a good run in a weak race.

Makes handicap debut with blinkers fitted, she has worked well in them and is probably on a good mark but will need to be sharp away from this wide draw, hoping for a good run.

Having his debut run, he goes ok at home but will improve for the experience and will be worth following when handicapped.

Has been running well this year - she was slightly disappointing last run but was found to come back with a slight problem so can be forgiven that run. She drops in grade here and has a good draw (4). She should have a good each-way chance.

Is a sweet filly and goes nicely at home - she has a wide draw here but will learn plenty and should out run her odds - just looking for her to learn from the experience.

Makes handicap debut, steps up in trip and cheekpieces to help him travel. George Rooke takes off 3lbs so all helps. Just hoping for an improved run.

Seemed to get caught out for pace over 7f last time so the step back up to 1m will suit. Dylan is not able to claim in this apprentice handicap but he has the ability to overcome that. He seems well at home so should be in the shake-up again.

Has been consistent all Winter - returns to Chelmsford today, which is a plus as her two wins are over CD. Draw 13 not great but if she can get a handy position she should have an e/w chance in this lower grade, which is a first in this class.

Valetta Sunset has been disappointing but we have been trying something different with him and he has run well here in the past. Really, just hoping for a better run in a weak race.

Lived up to the promise he showed when second on his first try at Southwell to win here last time out. He runs with a 6lb penalty here, but went up 7lbs in the ratings on Tuesday. He is tough and seems to be improving - we hope he can follow-up that win here in a weak-looking race. Dylan Hogan, who rode last time, remains in the saddle.

Has run respectably in two runs this year - the step up to a mile will suit. She is dropped in grade here and couldn't be in better form at home. She has a good each-way chance at a nice price.

Having his third run here - he will learn more and will be more competitive once he is handicapped.

Smokey Malone ran well to finish second here last run, the form of that race has been working out and he has been working well since, blinkers fitted again as they seemed to do the trick last time, he should have a good e/w chance again.

Oud Metha Bridge had excuses last run at Kempton, he has run well at Southwell in the past and is worth another go here, he has the right draw and is well at home, he must have a good e/w chance again.

Has just joined the yard and ran well last run to out run her odds after a wind operation. If she can build on that run she should have a good each-way chance but there are a couple of in-form horses in the race.

Has been disappointing for the yard and we have been struggling to find the key with him. We know he goes on the surface and is now very well handicapped but just needs to find some form again.

Is having his second run here in what looks a tough novice but he will gain more experience and will be worth following once he has run three times and then can run in handicaps.

Showed improvement last time - making the running until 2f out. She showed plenty of speed that day so the drop back to 6f should be ideal. She will probably struggle to beat a couple of these on the ratings, but she has no weight with George Rooke's claim, so will hopefully run well and will then qualify for handicaps.

Is having her third run so will then have a handicap mark - she had a wind operation since last run and will be worth following when running in a handicap.

Won well last time over CD at the end of November - he is best with time between his races, hence the 2 month break. This looks an ideal race for him and is quite winnable. He is in great form

Ran a pleasing race last time after a break - she has come out of that race very well and couldn't be in better form. She should have a good each-way chance at a nice price - just depends if Lee's Vivency is the unexposed dark horse in the race.

Has been disappointing since we have had him but looked better when fitted with the blinkers last time. Dylan Hogan has suggested we step him up in trip, so we are trying 1m4f here and if that is the answer then we hope for improvement in a weak race.

Ran well on Fibresand debut last time (3rd) and looked like she will be suited by a step up to 1m4f. She remains in good form at home so we would hope she has every chance of winning again. Dylan rides again and takes off a handy 3lbs too.

Improved with blinkers on handicap debut last time out, but was too keen in a slowly run race. They will go quicker here so he will settle and if they work a second time will have a good each-way chance at a nice price.

Is a big filly and we have always thought a lot of her - she has probably only just matured. She has also had a break but should be fit enough to do herself justice. But whatever she does here, she will improve next time out.

Saray Prince is well bred and was bought cheaply out of Simon Crisford’s yard in August, so it is worth running him in this low grade seller rather than a hot novice, hopefully he can get competitive here if he is not too green, he would have the better chance of our two runners.

Dilly Rosa didn’t show much on here racecourse debut but she may have fell asleep in the hood, so she is just wearing it to the start this time, dropped in grade here and hopefully she has improved a bit for the run.

Has been disappointing recently so we are reaching for the blinkers today - he did work well in them at home recently. We plan to ride him patiently and try to get him to finish his race. He is well-handicapped now but would like to see some improvement.

Hasn't shown much in three runs for a handicap mark. He works much better than his mark suggests though - he is on a very low weight with Tyler Heard claiming 7lbs too. Blinkers have been applied and he did work well in them at home so we would hope for plenty of improvement here today.

Makes her Fibresand debut but on breeding and running style should suit. Looked like she just needed the run the last time but still only beaten 2 lengths. In good form at home and hopefully will get the slightly longer trip. Each-way chance.

Has been in great form recently at Chelmsford over 1m2f - she seems to have thrived at home since. She hasn't run well here in the past but that was over 1m4f, which is probably too far. If she gets the run of the race, should have a good e/w chance.

Is a recent purchase and has run once for the yard so we are still learning about him. He has run his best race so far at Southwell so we know he handles the surface and 7f seems ideal. Drops in grade here and Dylan Hogan takes off a useful 3lbs. Hopeful of a better run today.

Ran well on AW debut last time with Shane Kelly riding - he advised that we put blinkers on him and step him up to 1m2f. So if this brings any improvement it should put him in the mix - he does have the ability to do better, so just hoping these tweaks help.

Alibaba has had a little break since his run at Newmarket where he was unsuited by the heavy ground, he probably didn’t get the trip at Chester the time before so has had excuses for his last two runs, trying the tapeta for the first time which shouldn’t be a problem, small field will suit and runs well fresh, so will be interesting to see how he fairs in this grade

Oud Metha Bridge is now very well handicapped, he was a bit disappointing last run when seemly travelling like the winner 2f out. We have fitted cheek pieces here for the first time so hoping he finds his form again, he seems very well at home, good e/w price if he comes back to form.

Dilly Rosa is making her debut here, she hasn’t been easy but seems to have been transformed for the fitting of a hood recently and has been working nicely, now ready for a run so will be a learning curve for her here.

Was unfortunate last run when nothing went her way in the race and she ended up getting shuffled back off a slow pace - probably put a line through that run and if she is in the same form as when she won here over CD the time before then she must have a good e/w chance again.

Has been so consistent this year - being placed nearly every run. Getting into a 0-60 here must surely give her a chance and Tyler Heard, who was third on her at Newbury when he was unable to claim in an apprentice race - but the good news is he can claim it here! We hope this will be her day before she heads to the Tattersalls Mares Sale.

Valletta Sunset has been disappointing since handicapping, he is on a low mark now and drops back to a mile but needs to show some improvement to get competitive here.

Smokey Malone is having his third run here for a handicap mark, he has been given a bit of time to strengthen up so hopefully will show a bit more this time. He will be worth following when more competitive in handicaps.

Improved to win over CD on her last run and her work since has been much improved - in the same grade here must have a good chance of following up that win. Dylan Hogan rides here again too and she also has a good draw.

Has been so consistent all year without winning - she has course form here at Southwell and still seems in good order at home. Sam rides her everyday too and claims a handy 7lbs so they are both looking for their first wins! Probably have the favourite to beat but she should have a good e/w chance again.

Ran well on debut just getting tired in the closing stages on heavy ground. Drop back to 7f here will be fine as he has sharpened up for the run, he should outrun his odds here and will be a nice horse next year.

Oud Metha Bridge didn’t handle the heavy ground at Yarmouth last time, he has been dropping in the handicap all year and is 1-1 in this grade, he is a CD winner here and taking off 7lbs with Tyler Heard, we would hope he has a good e/w chance today at a good price.

Has paid the price with the handicapper with a couple of wins this season. The heavy ground is also a worry but he will take his chance here as he is in good form at home and this is the last opportunity on turf this year.

Winter Snowdrop won well at Yarmouth two runs ago but had a very wide draw last time which gave her little chance of following up. A good draw here and she seems in good order at home so we hope she has a good e/w chance tonight.

Productive is having his first run for the yard since being purchased at the last August sale, we have since gelded him, he will probably need the run here and this will be a learning curve but we hope he is a nice horse for the AW through the Winter and will be worth following.

Has never run a bad race and has been very consistent this year on the AW - we always though soft turf would suit and a test of stamina. Cheekpieces tried to help her travel too - she can hopefully find that bit of improvement in these conditions.

Has struggled in handicaps this year - he is a slow maturing sort so the hope is that a light weight in these conditions will help but needs some improvement to be in the shake-up.

Ran oaky at Chelmsford last time after 10 months off the track over 7f. She will be better suited by a step up to 1m in a similar handicap - hopefully we will see an improved run here.

Has his first day at school today - he is ready for a run and has to start somewhere, plus the conditions will suit. Se we hope he gets into the race and learns something..

Won well last time at Salisbury, when we thought she may have needed another race. She has been in great form since and is lightly-raced so has every chance of following up that win with Dylan Hogan riding again. 

Seems to be in good form after her recent win at Windsor, so we need to take advantage of the soft ground on turf, which had seen the improvement in her. She is still unexposed but has a penalty here and claiming 3lbs rather than the 7lbs last time. She has the win on her CV now so whatever she does here is a bonus.

Has been running consistently without winning - making the long trip here because the stiff 2m will suit her as she likes to come off the pace. Just have the hot favourite from the Charlie Fellowes yard to beat but he did win on heavy ground so that's a plus - each-way price.

Divine Queen has been improving for every run on soft ground, she came to win last run but didn’t see out the 7f, drop back to 6f here will suit and Tyler Heard takes off a handy 7lbs. She should have a good chance of getting off the mark here.

Oud Metha Bridge has run some good races this year in defeat but hasn’t had the very soft ground he needs all year, he has been dropping in the handicap and looks very well treated, loves the track, we think he has a good ew chance here at a nice price.

Spanish Mane has been a star this year with three wins, she is still in good form and Sophie Ralston has won on her this year - however, the ground is an unknown and up another 4lbs here, but is in great order and she takes her chance and loves this track (CD winner).

Valletta Sunset looked to be progressing well on his third run but the wheels seem to have fallen off since and he has been disappointing, we have fitted cheek pieces here and hope we can see the ability we know he has.

Gas Monkey has been a star for the yard but has struggled a bit with his handicap mark this year but still runs well. He has to take on improving three year olds here so maybe hard for him but he takes his chance.

Is having her first run for the yard after three runs for a handicap mark. She is on a very lowly mark here so we are hoping that she has strengthened up since her last run. Rhiain Ingram has ridden her before so that helps too - but this will be a learning curve.

Has been a slow maturing sort - she needed the run the last time after a lengthy lay-off but still ran well enough - should run well here at a big price and any rain will also help.

Showed improved form last run on soft ground and a drop back in trip. We think she is improving and is well-handicapped so she should be an each-way prosect when looking at the make-up of the race.

Has been very consistent - she ran well last run after a break but the form hasn't worked out that well. But she has probably improved for the run so we are hopeful that she will be thereabouts again now she is fitter.

Showed improvement last run, when making the running with the hood applied because she had been too keen in her earlier races. Now in a handicap and in the right grade so if she can dominate then should run well but probably a learning curve still for the horse on handicap debut.

Has been a slow maturing sort - he wasn't suited by the track at Bath last time so with Nottingham being a more galloping track this should suit him better. The ground is fine too and probably would be better in a lower grade but the lack of races means he has to take his chance in this higher class race - really though just hoping for a better run.

Seems to be coming into form now but the lack of opportunities on the turf means we have to take our chance on the AW. Looks like we have the tougher division of the two races and a wide draw in 15 is not ideal either - but she is on good form so takes her chance.

Has been in great form this year since we have changed her bridle and her liking of lay jockeys! This is an apprentice handicap for riders that have not ridden more than 10 winners so we have to have a different jockey again. Saffie Osborne is able to claim 5lbs though, while the track, ground and distance should be ideal so we hope she has a good chance of following up her last win.

Has run well over course and distance in the past - the drop in class will suit here though. Dylan Hogan knows her well and is riding well at the moment too. Looks quite a weak race so we are hopeful that she has an each-way chance at a nice price.

Is having her third run and will be better suited when handicapped over 6 or7f.

Is stepping up in trip and grade here - he has been running consistently all year, the distance should not be a problem on quicker ground. Tyler Heard takes off a handy 7lbs and knows him better after finishing second on him before. We will be delighted if he can finish in the money in a Class Two.

Has improved after lockdown - winning twice - he struggled last time out on the firm ground and came home very jarred up. Easy ground here will be to his liking and the step up in trip will suit based on breeding. He is in good form at home so has a good each-way chance and a nice price.

War Empress too time off during lockdown but it probably has been a blessing for her - she looks to have come back in good form. This looks to be a weak race so we hope she is fit enough to do herself justice here. Whatever she does she will improve for the run though.

Disappointed on handicap debut but it was during the heat wave and we think he was affected by the heat. He is stepped up in trip here on better ground and with the 'all-conquering' Hollie Doyle riding we are hopeful of a better run.

Has been running well all year - she ran too keen with no cover last time so lost her chance. If she gets cover this time she will be thereabouts with an experienced apprentice in Georgia Dobie riding - she does seem to run best for the girls!

Returns after a year off the track - she had the winter off and was then ready to run in March but then lockdown came and she had to be taken out of training so it's taken a while to get her fit again. She has strengthened up a lot for the break though and will be worth following in the future, but she will probably need the run here today.

Only went to Bath last time as a warm-up run for today and ended up winning! So he is well and back at his favourite surface here so should be competitive in a weak-looking race. Tyler Heard won on him last time out and takes off a handy 7lbs.

Is a lovely Kingman filly, who we hope is now well-handicapped. She has been wanting this ground so we hope she will get competitive in this weak race.

Loves it here at Yarmouth - he had no run last time when stumbling coming out the stalls on last run. He will love the ground and Sean Kirrane back riding is a plus having previously won on him. Good each-way chance here today.

Is a full sister to Gas Monkey. He didn't show any form until he was a 4 year-old - this is her first run for us too and she looks to be on a good handicap mark - any rain will help. She will, however, improve on what she does here and is well worth following going forward - but we still feel she will outrun her odds here today.

Is well suited by 1m2f on a galloping track on soft ground. She seems well-handicapped now too and Tyler Heard takes off a handy 7lbs. She should have an each-way chance at a good price.

Loves it here at Yarmouth - she is still well-handicapped and Tyler Heard, who has been going very well for us recently, takes off a handy 7lbs. She wouldn't want the ground to go too soft - so if conditions are right will be thereabouts again.

Is having her second run in a tough race - she will be more competitive once she has a handicap mark though.

Will only run if the rain comes - he has not been letting himself down on the firm ground recently. He has the ability and is well-handicapped so we will have to see what the weather does.

Is turning out quickly for him but seems to have come out of that recent race last Saturday well. He has recent CD form here and Tyler Heard being able to claim a handy 7lbs in this apprentice race is a big bonus. We did go up 3lbs for his last run, which was a bit harsh but hopeful he has a chance of going one better today.

Has been in good form this year, without winning. He has been slipping down the handicap though and has a good draw here (11) and the ground will be ideal. Sam rides well and value for his 7lb claim too. He should have a good e/w chance.

Has been a slow maturing sort - he was not suited by the AW on his handicap debut and hopefully Bath will have plenty of rain which will be ideal and show him in a better light. We think he is probably well-handicapped though and Ross knows him well. Each-way.

Is best suited by Southwell but have not been able to run there this year. This run should hopefully put him right to go back there at the end of the month.

Has been a star for the yard since being fitted with a hood last year - he loves it here (CD winner) and ground will be perfect. Sam Feilden has yet to ride a winner so claims a handy 7lbs but he is quite capable and so long as he stays cool must have a good chance of getting off the mark.

Has loads of ability and works like a group horse at home! Ross will be riding him cold and hope to coast through the race - he knows him well and if we have a good pace to aim at this could fall into his lap!

One Of The Girls is making her debut but will need to get handicapped before getting competitive - 6f will probably be her optimum trip.

Is a lovely horse to give Sam Feilden the experience he needs - the 7f may be a bit sharp for him here, but he has a good draw and hopefully he will run well for Sam and be staying on at the finish.

Is making his handicap debut - he had been a slow maturing type and we think he is well-handicapped. He has run well over CD too, but he could have done with some rain. But this does look the easier division so he takes his chance and must have a good each-way shout.

Has strengthened up and improved after lockdown - he never shows much at home but comes alive on the track. A step up in class here and we probably have the favourite to beat but we hope he is still improving and will be in the shake-up.

Ran very well on last run for Tyler Heard and he rides again over this course and distance - she tries hard and hopefully has an e/w chance again.

Has come out of her win at Yarmouth last time well. She is in good form and is still well-handicapped. The drop to 7f is no problem and she does seem to go better for the girsls so Sophie Ralston rides her again. She would have a good each-way chance again.

Has so much ability and works so well but has yet to show this on the racetrack - he probably ran his best race here in the past and does like a good pace to run at. If things fall right for him he should have a good each-way chance, while we are also trying the blinkers for the first time too.

Seemed to run to his rating last time - we were hoping that this race would divide so not sure the big field will suit. The track and trip will be ideal though. He will need luck in running but he is in good form at home so just hopeful of a good run.

Improved for the fitting of blinkers last time but didn't see out the 7f. So we are dropping back to 6f today, which will hopefully make the difference. Having said that, the favourite - Bold Decision - may be hard to beat if following up it's last run/win. We've still got a decent e/w chance though.

Can be forgiven for her last run as there were no stalls that day and she just ran too free. She tries and is normally consistent, while she seems in good form at home. A good 7lb apprentice on board today and we hope she has an each-way chance.

Didn't show much last run after a break - trying a new trip but really needs to show some improvement before following.

Engrave is best-suited by the 1m2f trip that she'll get here. Looks a wide open handicap with much of the form of the others on the AW so maybe a bit to prove. We is well and we hope she has an each-way chance off a light weight and Dylan also able to claim 3lbs.

Is very consistent and seems very well at home - he has run well at Newbury in the past and does like the straight mile. We would hope he has an e/w chance again here.

She is a lovely Kingman filly. She has had the three runs in tough maidens and we think she's been given a very good handicap mark. Track, ground and distance should be fine and we will be disappointed is she's is not in the top three here at a good price!

Ran a promising race last time - he has come out of that well too and seems to have improved again. This looks quite a weak race so we think he has an each-way chance at a big price

Missed the break on his first run and then ran too free on the outside so didn't finish. He seems to have improve for that run and if he can get cover this time will run a much better race - he should outrun his odds!

Sea Shack has been very consistent without winning, he has had a break and will probably need the run but Hollie will give him every assistance so hopefully he can run into a place again.

Engrave probably doesn’t get 1m4f so the drop back to 1m2f here will suit, she has also dropped to a rating of 60 which is ideal, track and ground fine so we hope she has a good e/w chance again.

Has been struggling to get in a race off her lowly mark, but finally gets her chance. She tries hard and likes quick ground. We would be hopeful that she has an each-way chance in a very average race.

Alibaba won well last run and went up 5lbs, these 3yr old handicaps are always competitive, but he can still run in this grade so we hope he can still be competitive and Josh Bryan takes off a handy 3lbs.

Valletta Sunset is a slow maturing sort and is having his second run here, he should learn something and will be better once handicapped.

Spanish Mane had excuses last run when we did think she would win. She is very well and we are hopeful of a very good run this time. She likes the girls and Sophie takes off a handy 5lbs so probably our best chance of the day.

Limerick Lord has had a break and seems to have done too well, he is getting older now and probably needs a run or two to be at his best - with that in mind, he will be better for the run.

Oud Metha Bridge could have done with some more rain as he tends to look after himself if the ground is too firm for him - but he is well at home.

Approve the Dream didn’t appear to try very hard last run so we have fitted blinkers, he worked well in them at home so hopefully they will help him here - but he is not one to rely on.

Noble Account shows plenty of ability at home and should have won by now, he is very well handicapped and just needs a good pace to run at as he is best held up and ridden for some luck, if he gets that he will be there about again - each-way chance against the hot fav Awesomedude.

Ride and Prejudice has proved very difficult with the stalls, she has been waiting for a stalls test before lock down, if she behaves on the day we can find out where we are with her, she works well at home and trip will suit but best to watch this time.

Divine Queen is having her third run here and although she does go nicely at home she will be more competitive once she has a handicap mark, she will win when in the right grade.

Is now paying the price of such a good time of it last season. He is in good form at home but needs to drop a few pounds in the handicap, plus a few rain storms would help. He will win again when he drops to the right grade!

Is our first 2 year-old runner of the year - he is quite a character at home and needs to now have a run. He is tough and knows his job. He should outrun his odds. Ryan Tate has been in and ridden him at work a few times too, so knows him well.

Ran a good comeback race at Lingfield last time - looking like he would be suited by the step up to a mile - he has come out of the race well and so long as he doesn't lose ground at the start must be in with a good chance here.

Is a big slow maturing filly and we have always thought she would be better suited with some cut in the ground on the turf. This is her turf debut, but is well and we hope she has an e/w chance at a nice price.

Is a slow maturing sort - he has been ready to run for a while but hasn't been able to get into a race. Second run here in a competitive race so hopefully he will learn from the experience and will get more competitive once handicapped.

Has been working well but does need the rain to arrive and we will monitor that later on. If he does run (and there is rain) he will have an each-way chance in what looks a weak handicap.

Has had a winter break and although he hasn't grown much, he has strengthened up. He could do with some rain and if it does arrive will hopefully have an each-way chance here.

Is a beautifully bred Kingman filly that we bought last year. She has matured and got stronger over the winter, but this looks competitive. However, the experience will do her good and she will be one to follow once handicapped.

Has also done well for the break and is on a very good mark now too. She goes well here on the straight course (CD winner) and she has run well for Dylan Hogan on her last run. We would hope she has a great chance of winning for the fourth time in her career. 

Has done well for the break - he is now on a winnable mark. Loves it here at Yarmouth and hopefully there will still be some cut in the ground. He runs well fresh too, so we hope he has an each-way chance here with the horses running well in general after the break.

Is a big horse who needed time mature so this should be his year. He loves soft ground on the turf so the AW surface is a big question though. On a plus, he is fit and on the right handicap mark. Hopefully he can run well here and build upon it later in the season when he gets his ideal conditions.

Is so frustrating - he has so much ability but saying that he is on a good mark now and Charlie Bennett knows him well. The track should suit and trip is ideal. He should run well fresh so hopefully a good each-way chance.

Was just starting to show some form before lockdown - she has grown and matured for the break but is a big filly and could well need the run. She will be worth following on her next run, but we still hope she shows promise here.

Has been slipping down the handicap - he has never moved better at home and has been working well. He runs well fresh and is Josh Bryan can get him to jump quicker out of the stalls he will out-run his odds. Josh has won on him before too, so that's a plus - hopeful of a good run.

Had a great 2019, with 4 wins but he went up almost 2 stone as a result so life might be tough for him at the start this season - winning 4 times in 2019. He is, however, fit and well, but we'll just have to see how he copes with the rise in class. Dylan Hogan rides and claims a handy 3lbs. 

Oud Metha Bridge has run well here in the eyeshields - this sort of race should suit him as he goes well for the girls. We could have done with a wider draw but he seems in good form and hopefully has an e/w chance at a big price.

Has form around the track but probably in weak races and has been handicapped on those runs, so maybe rated too high here. We will learn more today, but will probably be suited in a lower grade.

Spanish Mane ran well the last run in a better race - she has now dropped into this grade for the first time. Ran well here before despite missing the break. Good draw in 4 so hoping she has a good each-way chance at a nice price. Dylan Hogan takes off a handy 3lbs too.

Has plenty of ability bit is quite a tricky ride - he pulled up the last time when he hit the front. He should travel well but needs to take his time - probably better suited by further but may be okay over 1m here. More hopeful of a good run than confident. 1 1/2 stars

Has been improving with racing and a step up in trip. She looked like the 2m should suit when running over 1m6f at Southwell last time. Ben Curtis riding is a plus, so should at least have an e/w chance.

Ran well for Poppy at Kempton in a better race last time out. She is able to claim 5lbs this time (unable last run because it was an apprentice race), which puts her well in at the weights. Step up in trip but we hope on breeding this will suit. We have a good draw to save ground so are hopeful that she has an e/w chance again here today.

Needs a small field and a high draw - unfortunately did not get that on his last run so can be forgiven for that effort. He is racing here off a featherweight but needs things to go right for him and if they do, he would have an each-way chance at a big price.

Is a horse we have always liked - he has loads of ability but has yet to show it. He has plenty in his favour also here today being upped in trip. Cheekpieces and a good draw (2), plus first time in this grade. Charlie Bennett knows him well. We will be disappointed if he is not thereabouts in this race. Looks a nice e/w price.

Has run a couple of good races at Kempton over 2m and the form of those races has worked out well - but it remains to be seen whether she handles this surface as she is a slow starter, hence we have fitted eyeshields. Just hopeful of a good run.

Does save his best for Southwell and is now as low in the handicap as he has ever been. Has found is hard to win lately and we would have preferred a high draw, but the blinkers seem to have sparked some life into him - we hope he has an each-way chance.

Just blows his chances with a slow start each time. He ran well last run and was running on well at the finish. First time he has got down to run in this class though - plus the long straight should help here. We are also trying blinkers for the first time to try and sharpen him up. Each-way chance if he doesn't lose ground at the start.

Has had excuses the last two runs - he has still been running consistently but finds it hard to win. Is well-handicapped and Dylan Hogan takes off a useful 3lbs. Each-way chance.

Seems to have taken well to this surface with the eyeshields fitted - unlucky last run when taken across the track by the winner. He seems in good form and Grace McEntee takes off a handy 7lbs again. Each-way chance again.

Ran well last time - considering the race didn't go to plan as she was meant to be up front because no obvious pace. She seems in good form and Sophie Ralston takes off a handy 5lbs. We hope things go to plan this time and she has an each-way chance.

Has struggled to get in a race off her rating - she has yet to prove that she likes the AW but she tries hard and this looks a weak race, so just hoping she can run well.

Is coming back from a break - she has been given time to mature. The step up in trip will suit and she has done plenty of work so should run well at a good price.

Ran well last run with the blinkers on - he has won over course and distance and also for Ross in the past. Well-handicapped now and probably just have Caribbean Spring to beat - each-way chance at a nice price.
