Somekindofstar is new to us and we're still learning about him. On form he has to be there with a chance and he's giving out the right signals at home.

29/09/22 – 1st 100/30 – Somekindofstar – Charlie Longsdon – Warwick
29/09 22- 2nd 50/1 – Steel Duchess – Darryll Holland – Chelmsford
Steel Duchess has not had the best of luck since joining us and her mark has dropped a good way as a result. She is not without ability and if things go right she could sneak into a place.

29/09/22 – 1st 2/1 – Call Me Tara – Fergal O’Brien – Warwick
Call Me Tara had Girlofmydreams behind her when winning on hurdles debut at Worcester but on 7lb worse terms was two lengths behind her at Fontwell. Now both mares are penalised and off level weights we hope Call Me Tara can prove her superiority.

28/09/22 – 1st 16/1 – Blazeon Five – Roger Teal – Kempton Park
I've been struggling to find races on turf for Blazeon Five so I'm trying her back at Kempton where she has run once late last year. Stamina is a question mark, but her mother was a winning hurdler over a trip and also a multiple winner - six wins and nine places from 29 -…

28/09/22 – 1st 13/2 – Ajp Kingdom – Fergal O’Brien – Bangor
Ajp Kingdon had a couple of runs (second and fifth) in Irish points before joining us. He shapes okay and we will find out much more about him here.

28/09/22 – 1st 20/1 – Fantasy Master – Darryll Holland – Nottingham
We've run Fantasy Master twice since he joined us in the spring. He had a break before last month's run at Kempton when he was hampered at the start. He will be straighter now but I'm not sure the fast ground will be ideal.

27/09/22 – 1st 6/1 – Pearl Eye – Darryll Holland – Wolverhampton
Pearl Eye showed a little promise on debut at Windsor, but next time at Newmarket, less so as he pulled hard. We changed the bit for his all-weather debut at Chelmsford and he was staying on well at the finish. His breeding suggests this 7f will suit and if he can overcome his wide draw…

27/09/22 – 1st 28/1 – Kajaki – Nicky Richards – Sedgefield
Kajaki ran no sort of race at Perth and all I can think of is that he and his young rider didn't gell on the day. He is a funny horse anyway but he has won around Sedgefield - you know it's not my favourite - and this is a prize worth winning. He's definitely…

27/09/22 – 1st 5/1 – Onenightintown – Micky Hammond – Sedgefield
Onenightintown jumps fences well enough and seems to go best for Becky. Stepping back up to the trip over which he has won before, this small field should be to his liking. He gets lumps of weight from three of these, so a win would not be unexpected.

26/09/22 – 3rd 17/2 – Alnitak – Kim Bailey – Newton Abbot
Alnitak disappointed in his bumper a year ago but has been given a long break in preparation for going hurdling. A very likeable horse who should go close.

26/09/22 – 1st 5/2 – It’s Chico Time – Roger Teal – Ffos Las
It's Chico Time has been a little frustrating but he ran better than it looked the last day at Windsor. The extra furlong and soft ground on this galloping track might help produce a better showing today.

26/09/22 – 3rd 8/1 – Right Destination – Fergal O’Brien – Newton Abbot
Right Destination has been very disappointing on the whole but this is an extremely low level. If the first-time blinkers help he might have a chance to break his duck at the 25th attempt.

24/09/22 – 1st 11/4 – Alwajd – Ian Williams – Chelmsford
A winner over a mile at Lingfield, Alwajd spoilt her chance of a follow-up with a slow start at Wolverhampton. I think she'll stay the 1m2f in which case she would have a favourite's chance.

24/09/22 – 2nd 9/2 – Buxted Reel – Ian Williams – Chelmsford
Buxted Reel belatedly gained a first victory at Wolverhampton two runs back but did not really build on that at Kempton. At this level he will always be a contender and this is another decent opportunity for this fairly handicapped horse.

24/09/22 – 3rd 12/1 – Dual Identity – William Knight – Newmarket
Dual Identity ran a very good race at Sandown, staying on into second behind Protagonist after coming from a long way back. He's in great form at home and I hope the low draws are favoured as that side of the track seemed the place to be yesterday.

23/09/22 – 1st 10/11 – Anightinlambourn – Ben Pauling – Worcester
If Anightinlambourn is in the same form as last time - and I think she is! - then she ought to follow up here in this mares' chase.

23/09/22 – 1st 7/4 – Rogue Spirit – Tom Clover – Haydock
It didn't look as though Rogue Spirit lasted the six furlongs at York last time. This race looks ideal for him and he should have a decent chance.

21/09/22 – 2nd 9/2. – Silverscape – Roger Teal – Kempton Park
Silverscape makes life difficult for himself with his slow starts but always finishes well. If Freddie can get him animated early from his good draw he would have to have a big chance on a track where he is a previous winner.

21/09/22 – 1st 10/1 – Mr Beaufort – Tom Clover – Goodwood
Mr Beaufort ran well over course and distance in May before disappointing at Haydock. He's had wind surgery and seems in good form at home. Sometimes it takes a run or two following a wind-op for them to regain their confidence.

21/09/22 – 1st 6/1 – Alcazan – Roger Teal – Goodwood
Alcazan ran well at Newmarket on Saturday and while it's a little soon, her owner was keen for her to take her chance. She's yet to win on grass but as long as it's not too soft she could go close.
