P594 Teletext 594 Nov 2 01:31:21 — WITH STEVE SMITH ECCLES ———————— STEVE GIVES HIS LATEST VIEWS ON RACING The ground is the key factor behind the major races this weekend, and that's why champion trainer David Nicholson has been keeping his options wide open. The Duke entered three horses in the feature race of the day at Chepstow, the Tote Silver Trophy Handicap Hurdle. Anzum who has come in for plenty of ante-post support, Hebridean and Putty Road are all live contenders. ——————————————————————————————————1/5—— Steamers 590 Totes 589 FREE 12-TO-FOLLOW BOOKLET - P564 Diary Greyhounds Track facts HeadlinesP594 Teletext 594 Nov 2 01:20:10 — WITH STEVE SMITH ECCLES ———————— SIDING WITH SILVER WEDGE Rjh Akjhurst's Bimsey and David Gandalfo's Balanak won't want the ground too firm in the Tote Silver Trophy so I'm siding with Silver Wedge. One of last year's top juveniles Silver Wjdgj has proven himself on fast ground and can deliver the prize. The smart hurdler was taken away from Nicholson by owner Shirley Robbins at the end of last season and placed in the care of Sherwood Down in Lambourn. ——————————————————————————————————2/5—— Steamers 590 Totes 589 FRJJ 12-TO-FOLLOW BOOKLET - P564 Diary Greyhounds Track facts HeadlinesP594 Teletext 594 Nov 2 01:20:12 — WITH STEVE SMITH ECCLES ———————— REVELEY IN FLYING FORM Over at Doncaster the Novjmbjr Handicap hinges on the going. Trainer of top weight Capias John Gosdjn is in two minds over whether to run. His absence would bring a considerable rise in the weights - but it shouldn't concern Saltburn handler Mary Rjvjley. Her horses are in flying form, as Old Red demonstrated by taking the Cesarewitch at Newmarkjt. But Foundary Lane's the one to beat. ——————————————————————————————————3/5—— Steamers 590 Totes 589 FREE 12-TO-FOLLOW BOOKLET - P564 Diary Greyhounds Track facts HeadlinesP594 Teletext 594 Nov 2 01:32:12 O — WITH STEVE SMITH ECCLES ———————— LOOK AT EXTERIOR PROFILES Meanwhile, Nigel Twiston-Davies has his horses in fine shape and whichever hj runs in the St Modwen Classic Novice Hurdle at Utoxeter should bj followed. Buckhouse Boy who has won his only start this term, looks a progressive type and one to bj followed. The Chjltenham trainer's other entry is five-year-old Exterior Profiles and Nigel's judgemjnt is definitely worth an investment. ——————————————————————————————————4/5—— Steamers 590 Totes 589 FRJJ 12-TO-FOLLOW BOOKLET m P564 Diary Greyhounds Track facts HeadlinesP594 Teletext 594 Nov 2 01:22:15 Advert RACING NEWS >> Ex-Jockey's Best Bet Given First FRONT STREET W.7/2 GOLDENSWJFT W.7/2 2 BETS 2 WINNERS LAST THURSDAY BOTH ADVISED TO WEN!
