UK Horse Racing Tips: Musselburgh

Cabrakan and Freddy Robinson merit consideration despite each picking up a 7lb penalty for respective wins on their latest outings. The former was an eye-catcher, as he made every yard in a similar contest at Newcastle and can go well if the cheekpieces have the same effect. Nevertheless, Irish raider BRINGBACKMEMORIES, who was rated 86 at his best on the Flat, has adapted well to this discipline and looks a safer option.
Prediction : 1st Bringbackmemories 2nd Cabrakan 3rd Freddy Robinson

BRANDY MCQUEEN has been highly consistent lately and he is fancied to gain compensation after finishing runner-up in each of his last three starts. He was a good second off this mark at Aintree last month and, with nothing to fear in regards to the trip or ground, he has a lot going for him. Starlyte and Cosmic Outlaw both won last time out and can also go well.
Prediction : 1st Brandy Mcqueen 2nd Starlyte 3rd Cosmic Outlaw

COOPER'S CROSS has done well since switching to fences and could take some stopping if he can better his good third in a competitive handicap at Aintree last month. The trip is ideal and, with ground conditions not expected to pose any problems, he has a live chance from just 1lb higher. Minella Drama and Pay The Piper look the pick of the opposition, with the former rating as the bigger threat judged on his best form.
Prediction : 1st Coopers Cross 2nd Minella Drama 3rd Pay The Piper

SHANBALLY ROSE didn't look comfortable over 3m at Market Rasen last time out, but dropping back in trip could see her regain the winning thread given she was denied by the narrowest of margins over C&D on her penultimate start. Everyday Champagne did it well on his chasing bow at Doncaster and he is entitled to be thereabouts, along with Thunder In Milan and the consistent Warriors Story.
Prediction : 1st Shanbally Rose 2nd Everyday Champagne 3rd Warriors Story

HOMME PUBLIC ran well behind a talented mare of Harry Fry's, and a subsequent winner in second, at Sandown last month, and this represents an easier task. The son of Cokoriko should enjoy conditions and he may have too much for C&D winner Al Zaraqaan, who has won his last three in this sphere. Third in this contest last year, First Impression is another to note as well as Socialist Agenda.
Prediction : 1st Homme Public 2nd Al Zaraqaan 3rd First Impression

A tentative vote goes to FINDTHETIME, whose most recent run at Haydock was too bad to be true. He is better judged on his runner-up effort at Wetherby last October. He's taken to score at the main expense of easy course winner Holmes St Georges and Ilanz, who continues to go from strength to strength having won his last two in effortless fashion.
Prediction : 1st Findthetime 2nd Ilanz 3rd Holmes St Georges
