Battled on well for the Henry Oliver yard. Original quote: "Is going nicely at home and has done well since having another wind op (third) at the end of last year. First run back since that here but looks a nice race to get going again with her. Also returns on a winning mark, as…

Another win for Gary's improving hurdler. Original quote: "With the non-runners in the race or not - looks my standout runner on the day in terms of a winner. Only three others to beat now at the time of writing and a hurdler going the right way. Won well again here last time out in…

Solid run from Simon's horse. Original quote: "Hat trick of wins this Winter including penultimate start here over this track and trip. Always ridden by this top rider who knows him well and he probably needed his last start after a break. Could easily get back on an upward curve at this level if his…

Ran on well to take second. Original quote: "Promising run C&D last time (2nd). Got a fair hike in the weights for that (3lbs) but must have good e/w chances again at a track we know the horse acts at."

Ran on well to take third - looks a horse to follow for the Moore yard. Original quote: "Probably not a race to get too involved in with a lot of newcomers and lightly-raced sorts. But we feel our runner is not a bad horse and has been doing the right things at home ahead…

Stayed on well to take third. Original quote: "Considering he lost his legs when jumping an early flight on hurdles debut at Taunton, Jersey Wonder ran creditably staying on well after being allowed to recover by Gavin Sheahan. He's run in two jumpers' bumpers since then, running well in the first then clearly taking little…

Solid run from Gary's horse. Original quote: "Second runner in this race for us and not without a chance either - kept ticking over in a jumpers flat race at Kempton last time out and wasn't far back despite coming 7th. Back over fences here and the better ground should help. Needs to bounce back…

Only just failed to get up but e/w money still landed. Original quote: "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…

Powered home to win well for Scott Original quote: "Has a decent AW record with 8 wins from 34 runs and 17 top three finishes. Acts well at the track and has been running well here over 1m of late. Drop back to 7f is fine and this is a slight drop in grade from…

Stayed on well to take fourth. Original quote: "Fair flat form in France but yet to sparkle over here. Had a wind operation since his last run though and three months off to get over that. Also into a handicap for the first time here helps and doesn't look too badly treated with Charlie's 5lb…

Eased down for a smooth success - looks a nice sort for Jamie. Original quote: "Won his Point on debut pretty impressively. He was a tad disappointing on hurdling debut when fourth over 2m3f on heavy ground, but he travelled and jumped great that day, so this drop in trip looks the right move at…

Stayed on well to take third at 33/1! Original quote: "Goes well here over hurdles and another solid effort last time when 4th of 7. Dropped a few pounds helps and the slightly quicker ground will also be to her liking. Not without small place claims if the race falls apart a bit, but still…

Ecah-way money landed. Original quote: "Might be a tall order for us all to beat the Skelton horse, who could be ahead of the handicapper still after an easy win last time out. We'd have a fair chance of a place though in a race that doesn't look the best - especially after his decent…

Top winner for this Michael Scudamore runner. Original quote: "Had an excuse last time as lost a shoe in the race so can ignore that run at Ascot. Dropped 4lbs though helps and we've given him a break since. Has shown ability, but still a maiden (8 runs) - however, this is only his second…

Nice debut run for the Snowden yard. Original quote: "Skandiburg is making his debut for us this afternoon. He has some good hurdling form to his name, but hasn't looked the most natural over a fence this season. He arrived with us a few months ago now, and he should appreciate being back over the…

Place money landed, but threw away the race in the closing stages by hanging! Original quote: "Lovely horse that came to us at the end of last year. Won well on debut for us at Aintree and ran a cracker to be second to the useful Ibleo at Doncaster last time. Trying him back up…

Much improved run from Scu's horse. Original quote: "Nice horse that won twice earlier this season at Ffos Las and Ayr. Highly-tried last time in the Tolworth but never ran a yard that day and wasn't his true running. Another tough race here today for this Grade Two Novice and better ground is fine -…
