UK Horse Racing Tips: Musselburgh

DALILEO returned to form with a taking success at Ayr last time out and a 6lb rise for that could prove lenient as he attempts to follow up. Lisa Harrison's charge gets the vote ahead of Theirshegoes and Achnamara, who was narrowly denied at a big price at Sedgefield on his latest start. Looking Splendid and Younowhatimean are capable of being in the shake-up as well.
Prediction : 1st Dalileo 2nd Achnamara 3rd Theirshegoes

A talented sort on the level and rated as high as 107 earlier this year, WISE EAGLE makes his first start over hurdles since finishing runner-up at Catterick in December 2020. The seven-year-old has won here on the Flat four times and the ground should be in his favour as he looks to see off the likes of hurdling debutant Clan Chieftain and Sea Legend, who has undergone wind surgery since his jumping bow.
Prediction : 1st Wise Eagle 2nd Sea Legend 3rd Clan Chieftain

This can go the way of YOU SOME GIRL, who continues to go from strength to strength after comfortable successes at Newcastle and Catterick. She escapes a penalty for the most recent of those so is 8lb well-in, and it may be that Maura Jeanne gives her the most to think about because she beat Rebecca Menzies' mare at Kelso last month. Lady Hamilton and Time Was are both maidens under Rules, but still have the form to get involved in proceedings.
Prediction : 1st You Some Girl 2nd Maura Jeanne 3rd Time Was

A winner over fences at Hexham in June before following up over the same C&D in September, HAPY LA VIE was able to exploit a lower mark to strike over hurdles at Ayr last month. The progressive seven-year-old is 8lb higher returned to the larger obstacles, but he is unlikely to have reached the ceiling of his ability just yet and is taken to go in again. Return Fire has less to prove than the remainder having been on target at Hexham three weeks ago and is considered the main threat. Dr Shirocco completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Hapy La Vie 2nd Return Fire 3rd Dr Shirocco

Starlyte comfortably accounted for Santa Clarita at Kelso before going on to record an unlikely win at Newcastle. Santa Clarita is 6lb better off, despite racing from 3lb out of the handicap, but that might not be enough to reverse the form. That said, the vote goes to ALL THE GLORY, who has largely struggled since landing a valuable prize at Newbury in March, but this is far easier than the races she has contested and she may be capable of bouncing back. Ben Macey takes a welcome 10lb off her back too, and that can only be viewed as an added positive.
Prediction : 1st All The Glory 2nd Starlyte 3rd Santa Clarita

DREAM JET recorded his second victory over fences when returning the convincing winner at Hexham and Brian Ellison's charge may prove difficult to beat raised only 4lb. Dance Thief went close at Ayr on his reappearance and rates a threat if taking to the larger obstacles, while Hold Onto The Line won off a higher mark over C&D back in January and is not easily overlooked.
Prediction : 1st Dream Jet 2nd Dance Thief 3rd Hold Onto The Line

Rebecca Menzies' yard remains in fine form and SWINGINGONTHESTEEL is taken to make a bold bid. The four-year-old was no match for Count Of Vendome at Sedgefield on his debut under Rules but that form looks stronger in hindsight, with the winner subsequently placing in a Listed bumper at Cheltenham. Loch Brandy also found one too good at Sedgefield last month and a good effort seems assured, with Charlie Maggs' 7lb allowance in her favour. Kool Raoul is a newcomer to note.
Prediction : 1st Swingingonthesteel 2nd Loch Brandy 3rd Kool Raoul
