Great call from Dave! Original quote: "Duke Of Firenze - Won this race for us last year off a 13lb lower mark, but despite his age has improved since. Ran very well at Chester off this mark last week and would have been a lot closer had he got a clearer run. Has come out…

An easy winner for Mick and a horse to follow. Original quote: "Sean O Casey: First run for us - former Aidan O'Brien-trained horse. Yet to run this far, but breeding suggests it will suit and has been doing well at home. A very nice recruit for the yard and hoping for a big run…

Landed a double on the day for Mick. Original quote: "Moi Aussie - 7th run for us, but first run on the turf since joining the stable. Looking well-handicapped at the moment after a few below-par runs, but hoping a change of scenery and racing on grass will help her. Has gone ok with cut…

Nice run from Jane's horse. Original quote: "Hows Lucy - In the right grade and will certainly like the rain. That said is probably better over a mile, but no real suitable races over that trip at the moment so giving 7f a try again - place chance."

Got home by a narrow margin, but they all count! Original quote: "Murray Mount - Unseated at the first last time out at Uttoexter on just his season chase start. Seems none the worse for that and actually jumped well on his first run over fences (2nd). Easier fences here at Southwell so hoping we…

Another solid run from Scott's horse. Original quote: "Socialites Red: Won well for us on Friday night - carries a 6lb penalty for that but has come out of the race well. Draw 8 not 100% ideal, so might need a bit of luck from there, but has run well at the track in the…

Handled the ground - another nice winner for the Loughnane camp. Original quote: "Roman De Brut - In good form at the moment and heads here off the back of a good win at Wolverhampton. The ground a bit of an unknown but Charile continues in the saddle and I think he'd have a decent…

Nice winner for Mick to make the long trip south pay off. Original quote: "In Kens Memory - Back the long trip down and hopefully it will pay off. First run for us after coming from the John Bridge yard so we'll learn a bit more today. But seems well and this 7f trip and…

Top call from Charlie - his horses are in great order at the moment. Original quote: "Chiefofchiefs - I'm taking a huge risk running this horse back here at Windsor only a week after he ran out - but I know the horse very well and I know it won't happen today - he will…

Loved conditions and the first of two winners for Charlie. Original quote: "Fire Tree - Has been waiting for rain and it look like we are finally going to get some today. Trip and track should be no problem and he has a solid chance - if the rain doesn't come then he's unlikely to…

Nice call from Mick. Original quote: "Hindsight - Red Royalist might be hard to beat, but we were pleased with our horses debut third at Redcar. Has come on for that and the way she finished the race suggests this extra furlong will be right up her street. Paul Hanagan a plus in the saddle.…

After some solid efforts gained a much-deserved victory. Original quote: "Lucky Beggar - Has been running really well of late, without winning. Remains in great form at home and has ideal trip and ground here. Hopeful of another solid run - decent each-way claims."

Led from the front and was never passed!! Original quote: "Toviere ran well in defeat at Ascot on his most recent run, I've seen him jump better but he did run to the line which he hasn't always done in his races. Toviere has been a consistent horse without winning, his pedigree suggested he would…

Powered up the Brighton hill to land this for Daniel and the team. Original quote: "Av A Word - Slightly frustrating type. He never runs the same race twice and was disappointing last time round, but the race has worked out well so maybe not as bad as it seemed. Best run from this horse…

A solid each-way run from Mark's horse. Original quote: "Murdanova - Only 5 runners here, but looks a race that a case could be made for most. Had a little issue with the horse the last day (hung right), but all fine now and seems in great order. Won his two races before that last…

Grabbed a much-deserved victory. Original quote: "Light Of Air - A horse which never seems to run a bad race. The jockey advised a step up in trip and to take off the blinkers which we have done today. Hopeful Light of Air should have every chance."

Powered up the Brighton hill to land this for Daniel and the team. Original quote: "Murdanova - Only 5 runners here, but looks a race that a case could be made for most. Had a little issue with the horse the last day (hung right), but all fine now and seems in great order. Won…

Turned over the hot favourite to win this with a bit to spare. Original quote: "Secret Strategy - Always seems to come up against one hot-pot - the drop back to 5f will suit better today though as he didn't see out the 6f last time. The ground is now on the slow side so…

Looks a nice sort for Gary and the team. Original quote: "Knocknanuss - Been off the track for a while with a few issues, so delighted to get him back as showed a fair bit of promise back in 2015. First run for us, but last time out beat Peregrine Run by 5 lengths in…
