Another well backed - won with any amount in-hand! Original quote: "Our Reward - Has run some good races this summer without winning and some poor races. His mark has dropped as a result and he's run better than this finishing position suggests back over hurdles the last two times. He should be capable of…

Well backed and made up for last time when pulling too hard. Original quote: "Knocknanuss - Ran too freely at Plumpton latest when falling. Bit to find on these terms with the Nicholls horse, but the horse is well and if settles a bit better today, should have a good chance. Jamie rides."

Top call at 14/1 by Scott! Original quote: "Krystallite - Is a much better filly over this CD. Drifting to an attractive price and despite the wide draw always should be feared over this track and trip."

Solid run from Oliver's horse. Original quote: "Westbury won a bumper at Huntingdon on his only outing last spring, he’d always gone well at home but it was very satisfying to see him win in such good style on debut. Westbury is a good looking son of Westerner, he’s done plenty of schooling but in…

Great ride from the front by Tom. Original quote: "Some Chaos - Had a few niggles - hence to long absence from the track, but had some very good Point form back in Ireland and bit and pieces of form in bumper novice hurdles. First run for us though so we'll learn more here but…

Top call from Mick. Original quote: "Congress Place - Looks a bit of a shootout race between Collect Call and Winter Light but if one (or both) have an off day then our filly could sneak a place. Only 7 runners so just the two places up for grabs though for the e/w but she's…

Top win for Charlie's horse. Original quote: "Escalator - Highly-tried last time in a Listed race at Ayr so will find this drop back into a handicap company more to his liking. Stays a bit further than this mile but being a stiff finish that will help. Is well after a break too and despite…

Got up in a well-judged ride. Original quote: "Lady Alavesa - Gutsy last time out to win here in a Seller. Into a Claimer this time and on these terms we've every chance again. CD winner at the track and Josie rode last time too so is back in the saddle. Weight of 8-13 helps…

Nice debut run over hurdles for Oliver's horse. Original quote: "Cheeky Rascal arrived from the Richard Hannon yard a couple of weeks ago where he had some good form behind him on the flat (rated in the 70's) and his owners wanted to see how he would enjoy jumping. He's schooled extensively since he arrived,…

Race fell apart a bit but still got the job done well. Original quote: "Eric The Third - Looks to still be improving despite being 9 years-old now. Won well at Plumpton last time out and the second has since franked the form by winning well last week. Up 6lbs so more needed but he's…

Solid e/w run. Original quote: "Treasure Me - Looks our better chance on the day. Is 2-from-4 on the AW so that's a plus. First run here at Kempton but should be fine on that score. Ran in a better race last time but got a bit worked up before the race that day. Seems…

Top effort from Mark's horse - the good draw helped!! Original quote: "Little Miss Kodi has been largely disappointing for her last few runs. We hope the step back up to 7f in a moderate race will help her to get involved and she has a good draw, which should help her. Difficult to recommend…

Spot-on from Jane. Original quote: "Wicker - We were confident of a good run until we got handed the 12 draw. The filly is very well though and Ray takes off a handy 5lbs. Been second at the track before too so that helps but due to the draw downgraded to a place chance. Each-way."

Made it 3-from-3 over fences for the Moore team. Original quote: "Diakali - First run back after a shortish break. Seems to be working well at home though. A good clear round could see him go close with Josh riding."

One to look for next time. Original quote: "Voila Eric - Had a few issues but delighted to get him back on track. Goes without saying he'll improve for the run and may have wanted softer ground but hopefully the horse can kick on from here."

Only got run out of things in the closing stages. Original quote: "Lord Fendale - Consistent sort and it should be more of the same here. Returned earlier this month to run a decent third at Newton Abbot but that was only a Selling Handicap Hurdle. Conor Brace also rode him that day and continues…

Promising effort from Tim's horse. Original quote: "Cap St Vincent - One of two in the race for us - both looks to have similar chances. This 5 year-old was last seen back in May so no matter what will improve for the run here (155 day break). Is fit and ready to run though…

Great call from Tim and a 1-3 in the race too! Original quote: "Chozen - Another that returns from a break but is fit and well. Top-weight of 12-0 makes life hard and may have likes softer ground but should be okay on that score. Chasing debut here too but schooling well. Probably not the…

Another decent effort from Dave's horse. Original quote: "Fieldsman - Been running really well of late and ran a cracker under a penalty last time (4th). Track is no issue and has come out of that race well. Tom is riding well at the moment too so a plus in the saddle - confident of…

Great shout from Mick. Original quote: "Gibeno - Plenty to prove at the moment but has had a few excuses the last twice. The drop back to 7f will help and he's also 3lb lower than last time. We are also putting the visor on for the first time and this looks his level at…
