There are four fixtures this afternoon with three flat cards from Redcar, Southwell and Wolverhampton and a very good jumps card from Exeter which features their highlight of the season, The Haldon Gold Cup. The big race has just six runners which is a little disappointing considering the prize money on offer but they have won 51 races between them so there is no shortage of quality. It should certainly make for interesting viewing. The stable has no runners this afternoon after Champers On Ice was taken out of the opening novices' hurdle.

There are three meetings taking place this afternoon with jumps action coming from Kempton, Ludlow and Plumpton. Somehow Plumpton manage to get away with just £27,000 in prize money across their six race card...you can draw your own conclusions on that one! If you live up north and like a bit of racing, sadly you are out of luck. The stable has two runners this afternoon at Kempton; Low Key and Houston Dynimo. Low Key has won his last two starts over hurdles at Fontwell and Stratford, while he has also won the Cesarewitch Trial on the level. This looks like a good race for the £12,346 prize money with dual King George Chase winner Silviniaco Conti heading the weights - Low Key is receiving plenty of weight on only 10-4 and he should run a big race under Conor O'Farrell. Our other runner, Houston Dynimo has been running okay during the summer but he would need to improve on recent efforts to figure here.

There are just two meetings taking place this afternoon with action over the sticks from Carlisle and Huntingdon. We travel all the way to Carlisle to run Shotavodka in the 2m4f handicap hurdle and he will be partnered by conditional jockey Kieron Edgar who takes 3lbs off his back. Shotavodka (pictured above) is making his seasonal reappearance and he should appreciate this stiff track while the ground should also suit. He would have sound claims on the pick of his form so let's hope for the best.

It is a big day for racing with five meetings taking place with flat action from Newmarket and Wolverhampton as well as three good jumps fixtures from Ascot, Ayr and Wetherby. The stable runs Purple 'N Gold and Unanimité at Ascot as well as Ballynagour and Dynaste at Wetherby. Purple 'N Gold runs in the Listed handicap chase and leading amateur jockey David Noonan is in the saddle and claims a handy 7lbs off his back. He never seemed to be going last time at Cheltenham and is clearly better than that - this is a £60,000 contest however so it is clearly a very tough assignment for him. Daryl Jacob is aboard Unanimité and he has the latent ability to go well in the Listed handicap hurdle.

There are four meetings taking place this afternoon with flat cards from Newmarket and Wolverhampton as well as two National Hunt fixtures from Wetherby and Uttoxeter. David runs Lady Of Longstone (pictured above) at Uttoxeter and our five year old mare is searching for a quick-fire hat-trick following a couple of facile successes at Worcester. She carries a 7lbs penalty this afternoon although if the handicapper could reassess this race she would have to carry another 7lbs. Winning rider Michael Heard is in the saddle once again and takes 7lbs off her back and she looks to have solid prospects once again, although her chances would be further aided if the rain keeps away.

Today we have four meetings with flat action from Lingfield and Chelmsford City as well as two jumps fixtures from Sedgefield and Stratford. Stable conditional jockey Kieron Edgar makes the long trip up to Sedgefield for just one ride; Stoneham in the 2.00pm race for Ian Jardine – it is another chance to test the theory…it certainly worked yesterday with our amateur jockey David Noonan riding Potters Legend to victory in the bumper at odds of 8/1. It hasn’t stopped raining down this way over the last few days and the downpours have been heavy at times – the ground will surely change.

Today we have four meetings to look forward to with three fixtures on the flat at Chelmsford City, Nottingham and Kempton and a jumps card at Fakenham. Although the stable doesn't have any runners today our young in-form amateur rider, Tom Greatrex has picked up a couple of mounts at Nottingham. He will be doing very well to record a double like he did the other day, but at least it is good to see him getting a few outside rides now.
