20/12/16 Straight From The Trainers Mouth

Nigel Twiston-Davies

1.15 Taunton     Unblinking           16/1

Third of 14 on his hurdles debut at Warwick twelve days ago, he showed plenty of promise staying on and has come on for that. Looks to have at least a good each way chance here and can go well. Mr H F Nugent rides and claims 7lbs.

★★★☆☆

David Pipe

1.45 Taunton Ramses De Teillee 6/1

makes his debut for the stable this afternoon having shown some decent form when winning an Irish point-to-point, although this appears to be a very competitive maiden hurdle.

★★★☆☆

3.50 Taunton Port Navas 6/1

Port Navas has been in consistent form of late, finishing in the frame on his last three starts and he could be our best chance today.

★★★★☆

Robert Buckler

2.20 Taunton Somerset Lias 5/1

He is looking well and in top form, but he is carrying top weight and this race is a grade higher but we are expecting a good run from him

★★★☆☆
