There was some decent racing last night at Nottingham with strong performances over three different trips. Newinn Oscar was the standout winner for Nathan Hunt.

This week will see the start of hurdles trials at Star Pelaw says racing manager Dave Gray, with Ricky Holloway set to send trialers north to test out the layout.

The first litter of dual Peter Bussey Memorial Trophy winner Woodcocks Akia are making an excellent early impression, winning races at Towcester for trainer Nick Deas.

There was open class action at four different tracks on Sunday, with arguably the pick of the action being at Sheffield, with Towcester, Star Pelaw and Valley also racing.
