Ran on well to take second for the Evan yard. Original quote: "Amiral Collonges - Is a law unto himself but has ability and if the race is run to suit he is capable of a big run at a nice each-way price."

Might need to brush up the jumping, but looks a decent sort for Jamie. Original quote: "Dans Le Vent - Was a very decent bumper horse last season and he's run well over hurdles to date. With the form of his latest second at Cheltenham now working out well. This looks a good opportunity for…

Might need to brush up the jumping, but looks a decent sort for Jamie. Original quote: "Dans Le Vent - Was a very decent bumper horse last season and he's run well over hurdles to date. With the form of his latest second at Cheltenham now working out well. This looks a good oppourtunity for…

A nice double on the day for the Oliver camp. Original quote: "Shroughmore Lass - Has shapped ok in recent runs and much better last time when 7th of 14 at Worcester. Looks a race with little depth so that gives us a chance, but probably needs to step up a bit more and the…

Great front running effort from Henry's horse. Original quote: "Sparkling River - Course winner here twice so that's a big plus. Should strip fitter for first run back at Worcester last month. Still a bit unsure about the 13lb hike from his last win back in March (2 runs ago), but is well so a…

Back to form with a solid third - one to look for next time. Original quote: "Emenem - Had a good summer and probably still progressing. Back here after a short break but in good shape and likely to go well. Stable still out of form though."

An improved run from Simon's horse. Original quote: "Dutiful Son - Consistent veteran over the years and still capable though out of sorts last few runs when often things against him. This is easier and a return to form would see him involved at a big price."

Another top run around here from Gary's horse. Original quote: "MR MUDDLE has been a regular at Plumpton and has a fantastic record around here. Not getting any younger but is as enthusiastic as ever and after some time off he may need to blow a few cobwebs away today. I suspect place claims today…

Nice run from Oliver's 5 year-old. Original quote: "Book Of Gold was very disappointing at Worcester on his first run over hurdles having shown good form in his bumpers. Leighton was never happy with him that day, he said he felt laboured from the start and it was only his ability that got him into…

Spot-on from Gary - an improving chaser for the team. Original quote: "BENATAR is a lovely type of horse and showed he has ability when winning at Ascot recently on his seasonal debut. Looks to have strengthened up as well and I will be disappointed if BENATAR does not win this today."

Solid call from Henry here. Original quote: "Doc Carver: Very nice horse - ground is fine and the track should be more to his liking. Has an each-way chance here today."

Ran on well to take third. Original quote: "Bennachie - Well back the last day but still did well to finish second and the winner looks better than that grade. Had a nice 4 week break to get over that and has come on again at home. Same mark and grade here so every chance…

Top call from Tim - an easy 6 length win. Original quote: "Bleu Et Noir - Ran a blinder last time to only just be touched off - has come out of that race well and another big run is expected."

Top run from Charlie's horse to grab a place at 50/1. Original quote: "Mia Tesoro - Ran a blinder last time out in a similar race to finish a slightly unlucky fourth. She has a good draw again and we are hoping to sneak some black type before she heads to America in the next…

I am rather more cautious as I thought Cheque  En Blanc was working well enough to suggest he would win last time out. Possible that the run was needed rather more than I thought but he is working well at home so I hope he gives a better account of himself today at Fontwell.

Another solid run from Tim's horse. Original quote: "Termsnconditions - Ran well last time at Newcastle when 5th of 12 - only beaten 2 1/4 lengths. The return to Lingfield is a big positive though after winning his last two here over CD. Last of those was back in April off this mark so with…

Awarded the race in the Stewards' room, but much deserved. Original quote: "Crimson Rosette - Won nicely over an inadequate trip last time out at Windsor. Step back up to 10f will certainly suit and I have always liked my filly. Got Hugo Palmers to beat (Part Exchange) but she will have to be very…

A gutsy front-running display from Scu's horse. Original quote: "Kingswell Theatre - Was a fair 10th in the main X Country race at the Festival back in March so has tasted this course in the past. Carried 11-4 that day so with only 10-7 here that will make life easier. Tom, who was on that…

Nice call from Mick. Original quote: "Rayaa - Draw 11 not the best, but over this 1m2f trip then plenty of time to recover. Only third run for the horse for us, but has had plenty of experience before coming to us. Generally a consistent sort and ran well here for us two starts back…

Landed the each-way money in third. Original quote: "Pearl Acclaim - Down 2lbs from his last run and continues to look very well in (63) after running in the 100's 3-4 years ago. Draw 1 a big plus this time and also down in grade. The horse is well and has run well at the…
