1st (5) Ayr Poet (3/1 +75%)
Ayr Poet

3
3/1(+75%)
(5) Ayr Poet 3/1, Course winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2023. Only eighth of 12 at Ayr 4 days ago, merely closing up late. Others more persuasive.
Showed spark as recently as August but unable to get competitive on last three outings.

2nd (6) True Nation (10/3 -48%)
True Nation

3.333333
10/3(-48%)
(6) True Nation 10/3, 8/1, career best when winning 11-runner C&D handicap (good) 12 days ago, driven out. A 3 lb rise shouldn't prevent another prominent showing.
Back to form with C&D win 12 days ago and she's a player if backing up that effort.
4
3rd (4) Dogged (13/2 -136%)
Dogged

6.5
13/2(-136%)
(4) Dogged 13/2, 5/1, good second of 11 in handicap at Ripon (11f, good to firm) 49 days ago. Back down in trip. Merits consideration for a yard going well.
The drop back down to 1m isn't an obvious plus but Becky Smith is a good booking.

4th (2) Swift Salian (7/2 +46%)
Swift Salian

3.5
7/2(+46%)
(2) Swift Salian 7/2, 11/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at Ayr (1m, good to firm) 24 days ago but was placed on AW prior to that. Hood worn on last couple of starts is left off.
3yo; just one win from his 14 starts but he's not ruled out off a competitive mark.
8
5th (8) Cage Rattler (50/1 -52%)
Cage Rattler

50
50/1(-52%)
(8) Cage Rattler 50/1, Unreliable individual. 50/1, last of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (7f) 10 days ago. Easy to look elsewhere.
He won in Ireland in May but has struggled subsequently and a transformation is required.
1
6th (1) Alazwar (7/1 -56%)
Alazwar

7
7/1(-56%)
(1) Alazwar 7/1, Respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 17/2) under Brodie Hampson last Monday. Blinkers back on. Ought to be thereabouts.
He's dropped down the weights and has a chance now back at a more suitable trip.

7th (3) American Star (9/1 +10%)
American Star

9
9/1(+10%)
(3) American Star 9/1, 40/1, last of 13 in handicap at Ayr (7f, good) on Thursday. Tough to fancy on recent efforts.
Won off 2lb higher at Chester in July but his subsequent form has been patchy.
7
8th (7) Bulls Aye (16/1 -113%)
Bulls Aye

16
16/1(-113%)
(7) Bulls Aye 16/1, Unreliable type who was well behind True Nation over C&D 12 days ago. Did win this race last year, though.
Won this race last year when 8lb higher; disappointing campaign in 2024.

13:50 Musselburgh Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

True Nation bounced back to form when scoring over track and trip earlier in the month and she holds an obvious chance off only 3lb higher. However, it may pay to side with DOGGED, who filled the runner-up spot over 1m3f at Ripon in August and goes off an unchanged rating. The seven-year-old should have no issues with the drop in distance and might regain the winning thread, while Bulls Aye can fight it out for the minor honours.

Rebecca Menzies has her team in form and DOGGED can build on a good run at Ripon last time and resume winning ways at the expense of recent C&D scorer True Nation. Alazwar may prove best of the remainder.

The drop back to 1m isn't an obvious positive for DOGGED but he arrives on the back of a good run and has the assistance of Becky Smith

Sutue Alshams

2
2/1(+88%)
(3) Sutue Alshams 2/1, C&D winner but operating below his best in 2024 and probably best to look elsewhere.
He won over C&D last August but has been soundly beaten on all seven starts this year.

2nd (1) Bulldog Spirit (6/4 +63%)
Bulldog Spirit

1.5
6/4(+63%)
(1) Bulldog Spirit 6/4, Back to winning ways in a Haydock handicap in August. Possibly unsuited by a soft surface when well held at Catterick 12 days ago and capable of bouncing back.
Tailed off last time but on soft ground; won Haydock handicap two starts ago.
4
3rd (4) Deauville (3/1 +0%)
Deauville

3
3/1(+0%)
(4) Deauville 3/1, Fair dual winner over 12.5f in France in 2023. Has a 13-month absence to overcome but decent form shout for a yard which won a course seller with a foreign recruit earlier this month.
Two-time French winner but she's making her stable debut after 419 days off.

Edwina Sheeran

(5) Edwina Sheeran 8/1, Had a productive 2023, winning 4 times, but she hasn't fared anywhere near as well in 2024. Drops into a seller now but still hard to be too positive.
Four wins last season but she's been below her best this year.

14:20 Musselburgh Seller (Class 4) 12f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

CANNON ROCK failed to land a blow on his hurdle debut at Worcester in July, but he has some solid Flat form to this name, including his second at Kempton in May. If James Owen's four-year-old can run to anything like that form, he could prove very tough to beat. Deauville warrants a market check on her first UK start for the Iain Jardine stable, while Bulldog Spirit looks the pick of the remainder.

CANNON ROCK ran a couple of disappointing races in July but he's a classy sort for a seller and is taken to prove too strong for Iain Jardine's new recruit Deauville.

Preference is for BULLDOG SPIRIT, who won at Haydock in August and may have been unsuited by the soft ground at Catterick recently.

9/4(+25%)
(2) South Parade 9/4, Breakthrough success came in a 13-runner handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) in August and has followed that with 3 good placed efforts. Drawn near the rail. Big player.
Has continued in good form since Thirsk win in August and can play a leading role.

(4) Glory Hyde 11/1, Latest win at Beverley in July and creditable placed efforts there on both outings since. In the mix if a low stall isn't too big an inconvenience.
Two 5f wins this summer; can be a contender once more if stall two isn't an issue.

Poor strike-rate on turf but in good form and effective here; can be in the mix.

(7) Classy Al 11/1, Tricky customer. Visored first time, twentieth of 24 in handicap at Ayr (6f, good to firm, 25/1) 24 days ago, unable to sustain effort.
On a handy mark on this season's best efforts but down the field on his last three starts.

Won this last year and he arrives in good form; on the shortlist.

Inanna

12
12/1(-140%)
(9) Inanna 12/1, Has 2 wins and 3 seconds to show from her last 5 starts. No reason why she won't figure prominently again.
Has done very well since joining this yard; still mileage in her mark judged on old form.
10

Callianassa

8.5
17/2(+66%)
(10) Callianassa 17/2, Bit below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (6f) 4 days ago. Visor on first time. This long-standing maiden may have to wait a bit longer for a first win.
She continues to drop down the weights but needs something extra in the first-time visor.

Ghathanfar

14:50 Musselburgh Handicap (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

SOUTH PARADE finished a close-up third in a stronger event at Chester last month and the handicapper might have been kind to leave his mark alone for that performance. Richard Fahey's three-year-old will appreciate this drop in grade and she could be the one to beat. Zuffolo has to be considered after his triumph at Redcar on his latest outing, while the in-form Inanna is another to watch out for.

A few in-form sprinters clash here, with Richard Fahey 3-y-o SOUTH PARADE taken to resume winning ways from a handy draw. Last year's winner Albegone has a string of good efforts in defeat in recent months and is second choice ahead of Inanna and Zuffolo, who has had a productive spell since blinkered.

The 3yo SOUTH PARADE arrives in fine form and could enjoy the run of the race from her high draw. She gets the nod ahead of Inanna.

(6) Reel Her In 6/4, Just second start for this yard when reeling in Rory The Cat near the finish in a 1¾m course handicap 12 days ago. Only nudged up 1 lb and there should be more to come back up at 2m. Hard to beat.
Fast-finishing 1m6f winner here recently; could relish today's extra yardage.

(4) Rory The Cat 10/3, Course winner. 11/4, creditable neck second of 7 to Reel Her In in 1¾m course handicap 12 days ago. Can give another good account.
Two big runs over 1m6f here, sandwiched by fading sixth at 2m2f; can be hope 2m will suit.

9/2(+0%)
(1) Animato 9/2, Course winner. 14/1, respectable sixth of 11 in handicap at Pontefract (17f, good to firm) 25 days ago, weakening final 1f. Return to a sharp 2m should suit and he has a bit of class for a 0-70.
Soundly beaten at Pontefract latest but on a handy mark on his May wins and not ruled out.

15:20 Musselburgh Handicap (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Having stayed on to overtake reopposing rival Rory The Cat in the shadows of the post over 1m6f here 12 days ago, another bold showing is forecast from REEL HER IN. Ben Haslam's filly is only 1lb higher and stepping back up in trip holds no fear. The aforementioned Rory The Cat is sure to give another good fist of things racing off an unchanged mark. The four-year-old is feared most, ahead of Pons Aelius.

REEL HER IN won despite the drop to 1¾m here last time and can follow up with the return to 2m very much in her favour. Rory The Cat was second to the selection on that occasion and can fill the forecast spot again ahead of Animato.

The lightly raced 4yo REEL HER IN caught Rory The Cat in the final strides over 1m6f here recently and she can follow up.

(6) Rock Melody 20/1, More miss than hit since a 6f Hamilton win in August but the fact she won this race off a 4 lb higher mark last year makes her a dangerous one to discount.

Won by 5l at Carlisle last time; up 11lb but could still be ahead of the handicapper.

Lightly raced 3yo who is 2-3 this year and firmly in calculations.

15:50 Musselburgh Handicap (Class 3) 7f  Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

ROCKYMOUNTAINWAY was quite taking when drawing clear of her rivals by five lengths at Carlisle in August. Although the handicapper has reacted by hiking the three-year-old 11lb up in the ratings, she may find enough improvement to complete a double. Eminent Jewel was a comfortable winner on the all-weather at Newcastle last month and she rates an obvious threat off a 4lb higher mark. The hat-trick seeking Come On You Spurs completes the shortlist.

Perhaps best to focus on the 3-y-os, with EMINENT JEWEL selected to take another step forward and prove too strong for Rockymountainway and the hat-trick seeking Come On You Spurs.

The lightly raced EMINENT JEWEL is a 3yo on the up and she deserves extra credit for her big-field win at Newcastle last month.

16:20 Musselburgh Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

The Gay Blade recorded a comfortable success over C&D recently and although a 4lb rise should be no barrier to further success, the vote goes to SPACE NINJA. Roger Fell's charge has improved since being gelded and duly opened his account over track and trip last month. Given he has few miles on the clock, a 3lb rise could prove lenient. Code Purple is also noted.

It might be worth siding with KEEP ME STABLE, who was better than the result when fourth to the re-opposing The Gay Blade over C&D 12 days ago and is 5 lb better off at the weights this time. Space Ninja is an improving 3-y-o who won here a month ago so he commands serious respect.

The Gay Blade comes here with a C&D win under his belt but SPACE NINJA's two 7f runs have worked out well and he gets the vote.

16:55 Musselburgh Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

ROYAL DUKE had Ski Angel (third) in behind when winning comfortably over C&D last time out. Although the former is 5lb worse off, he is expected to confirm his superiority en route to further success. Mrs Bagerran (sixth) and Whiskey Priest (eighth) appear held on that form too, so a likelier threat might be Crack The Kode, who is handicapped to go well back on turf, having shaped with promise at Southwell on his return from a short absence on Tuesday.

Claimer Rhys Elliott has struck up a good partnership with ROYAL DUKE, who had several of these in behind when successful over C&D 12 days ago and he's fancied to follow up. Cuban Rock was better than the result in that race and is entitled to finish closer to the selection this time, with Crack The Kode also of interest.

Last year's winner MRS BAGERRAN has a better draw than when sixth to Royal Duke over C&D recently and can come out on top.

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
