UK Horse Racing Tips: Musselburgh

Jim Goldie has his horses in decent form and loves a winner here, and he sends easy Ayr scorer MOTAWAARED back into battle. The four-year-old, who looks well treated off just 2lb higher, boasts sound claims and any further rain would be welcomed. Charli Parker is perfectly capable in the saddle and she could steer eight-time winner Star Start into a place, though Tee Aitch Aye might prove the bigger danger to the selection.
Prediction : 1st Motawaared 2nd Tee Aitch Aye 3rd Star Start

A small field could play into the hands of Karl Burke's Lucky Vega colt VEGASMILE, who made all to win at the second attempt by more than four lengths over course and distance, beating an odds-on favourite in the process. If he can dominate again here he may come home clear of Blue Pete, who finished second at Redcar last time out. Dodgem appears best of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Vegasmile 2nd Blue Pete 3rd Dodgem

Michael and David Easterby won this last year and will be hoping lightning strikes twice with Mick's The Boy. A six-race maiden, he finished second at Thirsk in July and needs to bounce back to that level. POSSESSIVE won on debut at York and ran well enough last time when third at Thirsk before being gelded, and he ought to go very close. Donna Beauty could put a spanner in the works if we ignore her latest effort.
Prediction : 1st Possessive 2nd Donna Beauty 3rd Micks The Boy

SKI ANGEL arrives on the back of two C&D seconds in recent months and the six-year-old could go one better on this occasion, despite a 1lb higher mark. Lucius Aurelius bounced back to form when a close third at Ayr last time and is another with strong claims, while Royal Duke edges out Albegone and Invincible Crown to be best of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Ski Angel 2nd Lucius Aurelius 3rd Royal Duke

All of these have questions to answer, but preference is for BRAZILIAN ROSE. The five-year-old has been struggling in Listed company of late but could show much more now eased significantly in grade. Dandy Magic has been running well enough of late to suggest that she could be the main threat, while Homestrait and Aspiral are others who make the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Brazilian Rose 2nd Dandy Magic 3rd Homestrait

Having secured a fifth C&D victory last month, Monhammer is sure to prove popular. That said, the veteran does have a 4lb higher mark to contend with, which could see the reopposing second RWENEARLYTHEREDAD exact his revenge. Declan Carroll's inmate was beaten just under a length and a 2lb pull at the weights might be enough. Kelpie Grey didn't enjoy the best of passages that day in third and is a feasible alternative.
Prediction : 1st Rwenearlytheredad 2nd Monhammer 3rd Kelpie Grey

SIMPLE STAR displayed a willing attitude when capitalising on a career-low mark over 1m6f here 12 days ago. Gary Rutherford's charge scored with enough in hand to suggest that a 4lb rise is workable and reverting to 2m shouldn't prevent another bold bid. Fellow last-time-out winners Ned Broy and Fairydale are expected to be in the shake-up once more, with the latter open to more improvement over this trip.
Prediction : 1st Simple Star 2nd Fairydale 3rd Ned Broy
