Loved the mud! Original quote: "Needed the run last time out at Huntingdon after around 8 months off. Dropped 3lbs for that and should be more at home over this 2m trip. Softer ground fine and in this Conditional Jockeys' race we've a fairly experienced pilot in Cooilin Quinn (9 wins from 116 rides). Chris…

Great call from James. Original quote: "Back from a short break. Can run well fresh so e/w chance if things drop right around this tricky track. Also a nice draw in 3 and Dougie knows the horse inside out."

A top TQ VIEW winner for this Jamie Snowden runner. Original quote: "Is a Midnight Legend filly out of a winning black type mare, who has produced three winners from four runners, including the five-time winner, Schiaparannie.  She was a fine 2nd on her racecourse debut in a warm event at Ludlow - the winner…

Easy winner for Moore. Original quote: "Easy winner here last time out on just his third run over hurdles. Has to give weight away all round so will need to improve again, but we feel he's done just that at home since and we'd be disappointed if he's not going in again here. We've sone…

Easy winner for this Gary Moore horse. Original quote: "Out of sorts last time at Chepstow but the ground that day was very heavy. Down another 5lbs here helps and is now 6lbs lower than his last win so every chance based on that. Doesn't look a great race with just three rivals and they've…

Another solid run from Scott's horse. Original quote: "In good form at the moment - with a win and a second in his last two runs. Return to Southwell is a plus but is 6lbs higher than when winning here last month. Good draw in 3 though and taking his racing well, so no has…

Nice winner for Gay. Original quote: "A consistent sort around this level and likes it here at Southwell (course winner). 2lbs lower than last time and dropping back into a Class 6 should see him more competitive. Ross Birkett rides for us in this amateur riders’ race. Each-way, with the negative being the terrible draw…

Stayed on well for third. Original quote: "Lightly-raced over the last few seasons - with just a handful of runs. Only third run over fences here but is running off a mark that is 3lbs lower than his last win over hurdles and only 10-4 to carry here. Seems well at home, while trip and…

Another solid run from Simon's horse. Original quote: "Still a maiden but held his form of late at this level and looks to have another chance here of being involved. Top rider knows him well and should be thereabouts if things go smoothly for him."

Ran on well but not quite enough to peg back the winner. Original quote: "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…

Top ride from Hollie Doyle Original quote: "Didn't enjoy it at Newcastle last time so can ignore that run. Better the time before here when a close second and a return to that run would give her a decent e/w chance. Is yet to win on the AW (8 runs), but we feel the cheekpieces…

Came with a cracking late run to take this. Original quote: "Has run two very solid races to date showing an above average level of ability. He will need to step up again to win today but shouldn’t be far away."

Stayed on well Original quote: "Back to form with a solid run last time. Seems in good form at home and a repeat performance would have to see him thereabouts."

Powered clear to win well for Jamie and the team. Original quote: "Soldier of Destiny was beaten 5 lengths on his debut in an Irish point behind the subsequent Grade 1 performer Gentlemansgame, and he was then 2nd in a bumper, and 4th in a Punchestown novice hurdle. He was a disappointing 4th on hurdling…

A 1-2 for the Dixon camp. Original quote: "Second runner in the race for us and the one we know more about - having raced three times for us since coming from the Hannon team. Has run well in each of those three runs, without winning, but ran well in a Class Two event last…

Nice winner for Scott. Original quote: "Debut run for the yard after coming from the Jamie Osborne team. 3 time winner on the AW, but not here at Southwell. That said, has never run here! Starting him off over 7f but is a winner over a bit further and Jonathan rides to claim 3lbs. Has…

Nice call Original quote: "Nice horse that is going the right way. Though is seen more as a turf prospect and this looks a hot race. We'd be happy to take minor honours here today."
