UK Horse Racing Tips: Musselburgh

Sweet Iris is the pick of those with form but the level she sets is not very high and preference is for VEGASMILE. Karl Burke's colt cost 45,000 euros as a yearling and is closely related to plenty of winners, including the Group 3-placed Fleetfoot. With that in mind, it would be no surprise to see him play a leading role on debut. Gordons Girl is another newcomer to note.
Prediction : 1st Vegasmile 2nd Gordons Girl 3rd Sweet Iris

SPECTACULAR DIVER was third in a Beverley novice event a couple of weeks ago and that form suggests that he could be hard to beat off a mark of 64 in a race of this nature. Lauralynn could prove to be the main threat based on her third in a similar contest at Carlisle last time, while any market support for Needin' U would have to be noted.
Prediction : 1st Spectacular Diver 2nd Lauralynn 3rd Needin U

It is hard to oppose AMBER HAMUR, who arrives here on the back of two recent victories. A 5lb rise for the latest of those wins at Ripon may not be enough to stop the progressive filly from making it a hat-trick. Only Dream Big was narrowly denied when third at Carlisle most recently and she edges out Trucial Pearl to be the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Amber Hamur 2nd Only Dream Big 3rd Trucial Pearl

Vaguely Royal continued his resurgence when completing a double at York 32 days ago and another bold bid looks likely. However, another 4lb rise does demand more of the six-year-old and it could be worth siding with handicap debutant FLORIDA DREAMS. Sandy Thomson's charge has proved a useful performer over timber in recent years and, stepping up in trip in this sphere, a mark of 70 could prove lenient. Last-time-out winners Inappropriate, Newport and Ned Broy add further spice to the race.
Prediction : 1st Florida Dreams 2nd Vaguely Royal 3rd Inappropriate

Monhammer and Luminous Warrior both merit respect in their hat-trick bids, with the former's course record giving him a slight edge. That said, this represents a drop in grade for recent third VINCE LE PRINCE and he could have too much class for these rivals. The six-year-old was denied by just a neck on his last attempt at this level when runner-up at Catterick and a race of this nature is within his compass.
Prediction : 1st Vince Le Prince 2nd Monhammer 3rd Luminous Warrior

SOUTH PARADE made the most of a career-low mark when scoring with something in hand at Ayr earlier this month. A 6lb rise from the assessor looks workable and she's fancied to follow up at the main expense of fellow last-time-out winner Zuffolo. The six-year-old made all at Ripon but may face more competition for the lead on this occasion. Beerwah can also make his presence felt.
Prediction : 1st South Parade 2nd Zuffolo 3rd Beerwah
