UK Horse Racing Tips: Musselburgh

NOT ON YOUR NELLIE was not far away over this track and trip on her handicap debut and could build on that effort. This shouldn't take much winning and he gets the nod ahead of Maybellene, who was only a neck behind her last time and is likely to be closely matched with her again. Summer Heights rates best of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Not On Your Nellie 2nd Maybellene 3rd Summer Heights

Ollivander is the obvious starting point after he got within half a length of success at Beverley last time, but HOW BIZARRE showed what he could do at this venue when winning over a mile last time and could prove equally effective over this trip. Ugo Gregory was not beaten far into fourth at Nottingham last time and it would appear that the more rain, the better his chances.
Prediction : 1st How Bizarre 2nd Ollivander 3rd Ugo Gregory

Kyllang Rock followed up a Nottingham success with a fair effort in third at Beverley, but he will have to improve to overcome TARBOOSH, who won that contest on the Westwood. Paul Midgley's charge has since missed out by the narrowest of margins at Leicester and can get back to winning ways while evidently on good terms with himself. Copper Knight is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Tarboosh 2nd Kyllang Rock 3rd Copper Knight

B Fifty Two has been incredibly busy this season but showed there's plenty of life in him yet when second at Ripon last time, while Paul Midgley's veterans Desert Ace and Gamesome are a couple of others who have shown up well this term. It may be worth risking JEWEL MAKER here, though. Tim Easterby's charge was competing over middle distances when trained in Ireland but showed he is effective over the minimum trip when second at Redcar last time and his handler may have found the key to him.
Prediction : 1st Jewel Maker 2nd B Fifty Two 3rd Gamesome

Barristan The Bold showed plenty of battling qualities to overcome trouble in running at Chester last time and was not beaten far in the end, while Montathem had secured back-to-back successes before finishing third of five at York last time. Both have claims here, but TRIBAL WARRIOR returned from over a year off the track to score over C&D in July and James Tate can be rewarded for taking a gentle approach with him.
Prediction : 1st Tribal Warrior 2nd Barristan The Bold 3rd Montatham

FIRST FLIGHT was last seen running a respectable third in the Silver Cambridgeshire at Newmarket, but he has a win over 1m4f in claiming company to his name recently and could flourish back up to this trip. Employer has been working hard for place money of late and will be out to get top prize here, while Tamleek is probably flattered by an official rating of 90, but he might find this an easier assignment.
Prediction : 1st First Flight 2nd Tamleek 3rd Employer

CATCH MY BREATH backed up placed efforts at Yarmouth and Newmarket with victory over C&D last time and a 2lb rise for that win might not be enough to stop him following up. Spirit Of Sarwan scored over this trip at Hamilton and has claims, while Luna Magic has been beaten a neck and a nose on her last two outings so is likely to be in the firing line again.
Prediction : 1st Catch My Breath 2nd Spirit Of Sarwan 3rd Luna Magic
