Nice winner for Dave and the team. Original quote: "Archimedes - Ran well last time at Southwell - only beaten just under 4 lengths and ran well for much of the way over 6f. The drop back to 5f will therefore help and in really good form since. Switch to Newcastle should be fine so…

Placed for Oliver. Original quote: " Tarada surprised me at Carlisle on his first outing in a bumper when he was only just beaten by the favourite.

Gutsy effort from the front from Gary's horse. Original quote: "DAREBIN has won here at Sandown and generally performs consistently well.

An step forward for Gay's horse. Original quote: "Bolt N Brown - Going the right way after an improved 4th last time out at Newcastle - but only third career run her. Step up in trip should help and Toby takes off 7lbs too. Should take a step forward but likely to be better once…

Looks one to note next time. Original quote: "Don't Do It - Nice draw in 1 - only third career run for us but found 7f a tad on the sharp side last time so the return to a longer trip will suit. Weighted to go well and in an open race certainly feel we've…
