9th	10 9th (10) (12/1 -60%) Ski Angel	12 12/1(-60%)	(10) Ski Angel 12/1, Too keen but ran just about to form off a new mark when fifth beaten 2 1/2l off 50 last time; effective 5f, acts on soft and good to firm; running well over this C&D and likely to go well again.

12:53 Musselburgh (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Thunderstorm Katie, a C&D winner before successfully coping with a 4lb higher mark at Newcastle last week, appeals in her bid to complete a hat-trick. A 5lb penalty could be manageable in her current form, although significant ease in the ground would restrict the enthusiasm. With that in mind, SKI ANGEL, a three-time track-and-trip winner, could be the way to go if the forecast rain arrives. Our Absent Friends and Sir Benedict can also figure from handy draws.

Thunderstorm Katie is second choice behind WEN MOON who is on a good mark and now drops into class 6 company for the first time.

Built on her debut effort when beaten a neck at Southwell last time; holds solid claims.
5th	7 5th (7) (12/1 +40%) Irish Incentive	12 12/1(+40%)	(7) Irish Incentive 12/1, 20 Mar; 25,000 euros Starman filly; dam fair at 8f. 25,000euros yearling; dam unplaced 7.5f-9.4f (RPR 63); best watched on her debut.
6th	4 6th (4) (33/1 -175%) Clocker	33 33/1(-175%)	(4) Clocker 33/1, Modest debut effort when well beaten in a novice over 8f at Redcar on only start; bred for 8-10f; should improve with experience, though the drop in trip may not suit. Hinted at promise when fifth at Redcar over a mile on her debut; drop to 7f may not suit.
7th	8 7th (8) (9/1 -38%) Silky Lass	9 9/1(-38%)	(8) Silky Lass 9/1, 10 May; 26,000gns Massaat filly; full-sister to Granny Budgie, smart at 6f; dam useful at 6f at 2yo; top trainer. 26,000gns yearling; sister to 6f winner Granny Budgie; interesting on her debut.

9th	11 9th (11) (80/1 -220%) Twilight Baby	80 80/1(-220%)	(11) Twilight Baby 80/1, 4 Mar; Twilight Son filly; half-sister to Foinix, fair at 12f; dam smart at 7f; faces a tough enough task on debut. Filly by Twilight Son; half-sister to 1m2f-1m4f winner Foinix (RPR 63).

Beaten around 13l when fourth at Nottingham on her second start; looks one for handicaps.

13:23 Musselburgh (Class 2) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

EAGLE BAY was only two lengths behind a now 79-rated opponent at Catterick. That was a highly encouraging introduction given his obvious inexperience and, as a half-brother to a multiple winner over this trip, he shades preference based on potential. Positive Thoughts built on her first run at Ayr when filling the runner-up berth at Southwell and could have another big say. Clocker and Henriette Ronner also have scope for progression.

Market support should be noted for Silky Lass (second choice) on her debut but EAGLE BAY is selected to get off the mark.

1	2 1st (2) (7/2 +61%) Sailthisshipalone	3.5 7/2(+61%)	(2) Sailthisshipalone 7/2, Again below his summer best when beaten 4l off 75 at Pontefract last time.

Top course jockey and trainer combination. Effective from 7f to 9f and handles any ground; better chance now dropped in class. Won six times this year from 7f to 1m2f; sixth at Doncaster last time in a higher grade.
3	7 3rd (7) (17/2 +29%) Harswell Duke	8.5 17/2(+29%)	(7) Harswell Duke 17/2, Below form when comfortably held in a Nottingham handicap last time, wearing a first-time visor. Trainer in form and now tries a new headgear combination with tongue-tie first time. Effective 7f to 9f and handles any going but prefers ease in the ground; needs to bounce back. Runner-up at Carlisle in June but his form has been patchy since; blinkers replace visor.
4	6 4th (6) (7/1 -409%) Double Time	7 7/1(-409%)	(6) Double Time 7/1, Improved when dominating a race that was hard to come from off the pace, winning a Kempton handicap by 2 1/2l off 65 last time. Effective at 8f and suited by ground with give; remains competitively treated on earlier form. Bounced back to form when winning at Kempton last time; holds claims off 5lb higher.
5th	5 5th (5) (9/2 +40%) Yermanthere	4.5 9/2(+40%)	(5) Yermanthere 9/2, Ran to form and made late gains off a steady pace when beaten 5l in a handicap at Nottingham last time. Suited by 8f and acts on soft (not heavy) and good ground. Form a little erratic but remains on a fair mark. Some good efforts this year, including when runner-up at Carlisle in June; place claims.
6th	8 6th (8) (9/1 +18%) Bint Al Karama	9 9/1(+18%)	(8) Bint Al Karama 9/1, Too keen and made too much use of when second, beaten 6 1/2l in a 9f handicap here last time. Effective from 8f to 9f and acts on soft and good ground; has a bit to prove off this mark. Mostly struggled since winning a seller here last October but was second here last time.
7th	4 7th (4) (8/1 +0%) Highland Olly	8 8/1(+0%)	(4) Highland Olly 8/1, Won by 3 1/4l off 64 over 7f here three starts ago. Made too much use of last time.

8th	3 8th (3) (18/1 +0%) Bavaria Iron	18 18/1(+0%)	(3) Bavaria Iron 18/1, Well below his French form and stopped quickly when well beaten in a 10f handicap at Pontefract last time. Effective from 8f to 10f and acts on soft and good ground; drops in trip in first-time tongue-tie but has plenty to prove. Ex-German 6yo who was beaten 32l on stable debut last time; tongue-tie now applied.

13:53 Musselburgh (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Although Dwindling Funds has won six times since late-July, he was held off this mark at Doncaster last time and DOUBLE TIME edges preference. The Tim Vaughan-trained gelding struck from a 9lb higher rating during the summer of 2024 and still looks well treated, despite a 5lb rise for a cosy victory at Kempton last month. Bint Al Karama tends to go well here and also warrants consideration.

The drop back in grade may help DWINDLING FUNDS return to winning ways, while Double Time is respected after his Kempton win.

1	4 1st (4) (3/1 -118%) Velvet Whisper	3 3/1(-118%)	(4) Velvet Whisper 3/1, Ran to form, enjoying a good run of the race when landing a 10f handicap by 1 1/2l off 65 at Nottingham last time. Effective at 10f, acts on heavy and good ground, and likely has more to offer though the new trip is a query. Off the mark on heavy ground at Nottingham (1m2f) last time; up in trip off 4lb higher.
2	6 2nd (6) (7/2 +75%) Sure And Stedfast	3.5 7/2(+75%)	(6) Sure And Stedfast 7/2, Scored by a head off 64 over 9f at Carlisle two starts back but was below form last time when stepping up in trip. Effective from 8–10f, acts on good to soft and good to firm; worth another try over this longer distance. Back down in grade having been well beaten at Nottingham last time; trip is an unknown.
3	8 3rd (8) (10/3 +0%) Sayidah New Bay	3.333333 10/3(+0%)	(8) Sayidah New Bay 10/3, Ran to form on handicap debut when beaten 3/4l off 61 over 11f at Killarney last time, back up in trip. Effective at 11f, acts on soft ground, and looks open to further improvement stepping up in distance. Rallied late after being headed at Killarney on her handicap debut; steps up in distance.
4	2 4th (2) (6/1 -9%) Alnayef	6 6/1(-9%)	(2) Alnayef 6/1, Ran to form when beaten 1 1/4l off 66 over 1m6f at Southwell last time, having been ridden forward down in trip. Effective from 11–16f, acts on good to soft and good ground; an inconsistent maiden but capable for top course connections. 14-race maiden; respectable effort over 1m6f at Southwell last time; drops back in trip.
5th	1 5th (1) (11/2 +0%) Tee Aitch Aye	5.5 11/2(+0%)	(1) Tee Aitch Aye 11/2, Ran to form when third, beaten 4l off a mark of 69 on deeper ground last time. Effective at 9–10f, acts on heavy and good ground, and remains in good form with potential at this trip. Got off the mark at Hamilton (1m1f) in September; needs to prove his stamina.
6th	5 6th (5) (12/1 +25%) Kitsune Power	12 12/1(+25%)	(5) Kitsune Power 12/1, Again below best when beaten 4 1/4l in a 1m6f handicap at Catterick last time. Effective at 12f, stays 14f, acts on any ground; inconsistent and needs to show more based on this year's form. Placed on a few occasions this year but below his best on his last two starts.
7th	7 7th (7) (33/1 -65%) Sophiesticate	33 33/1(-65%)	(7) Sophiesticate 33/1, Won by 2l off 60 here in August but again below form last time when ground may have been too deep. Effective at 10–12f, acts on soft and good ground; return to drier going should suit on debut for new yard. Three of her four wins have came over C&D; has left Jim Goldie since a poor run at Ayr.
8th	10 8th (10) (18/1 +36%) Krissy	18 18/1(+36%)	(10) Krissy 18/1, Pulled up in handicaps over 11f at Hamilton on her last two starts, each time as if something were amiss. Has shown minor promise over 11–12f earlier in her career; from a top course yard but hard to fancy on recent evidence. 0-7; pulled up here in July and again at Hamilton 116 days ago; best watched on return.

14:25 Musselburgh (Class 5) 12f Race Class Flow

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

A switch to more aggressive tactics paid dividends for VELVET WHISPER when making most of the running to score at Nottingham. Ed Bethell's filly had enough in hand to suggest that a 4lb higher mark is surmountable and a double may be in store. Tee Aitch Aye arrives on the back of a never-nearer third over 1m2f at Ayr and looks worth another go over an extended 1m4f. The four-year-old is feared most, ahead of Irish raider Sayidah New Bay.

Velvet Whisper could have more to offer but SAYIDAH NEW BAY shaped well on her handicap debut and could be suited by this trip.

1	6 1st (6) (14/1 +13%) Blufferonthebus	14 14/1(+13%)	(6) Blufferonthebus 14/1, Well below form and failed to get home back up in trip when fourth, beaten 8 1/4l over 8f at Newcastle latest. Effective at 7-8f and acts on soft and good ground. Now below last winning mark and drop in trip may help. Won in June; only one echo of that form (four runs back) in her five races since.
2	1 2nd (1) (13/2 +19%) Carolus Magnus	6.5 13/2(+19%)	(1) Carolus Magnus 13/2, Scored by 2 1/4l off 58 here on his penultimate start; below form when dropped to 6f last time. Effective over 7-8f and acts on any going except heavy. Return to this C&D is a plus and he looks fairly treated on old form. Won well over C&D (good; 6lb higher today) last month before a poor show on Newcastle AW.
3	10 3rd (10) (11/1 +31%) Law Degree	11 11/1(+31%)	(10) Law Degree 11/1, Raced a bit wide but ran to form when beaten 3 1/4l off 55 at Catterick last time. Effective at 7-8f and acts on soft and good ground. Needs to find more on recent evidence. He's mostly come up well short this term, including back on soft ground.
4	8 4th (8) (16/1 +0%) Princess Pw	16 16/1(+0%)	(8) Princess Pw 16/1, Bit better than the result when beaten 5l in an 8f handicap at Brighton last time. Visor applied for the first time. Effective at 7-8f and acts on good ground. Has lost form but drops again in the weights and now tried in new headgear. 11-race maiden; recent results are discouraging; blinkers are replaced by a visor.
5th	11 5th (11) (8/1 +20%) Monhammer	8 8/1(+20%)	(11) Monhammer 8/1, Ran to recent best despite not having the clearest run, beaten 2 1/4l off 51 here last time. Suited by 7f and acts on good to soft and good to firm. Good recent C&D effort and can be competitive again. No win since May 2024 but dual C&D winner and placed over C&D on last three outings.
6th	2 6th (2) (11/4 +61%) Jkr Cobbler	2.75 11/4(+61%)	(2) Jkr Cobbler 11/4, Ran to form back on the all-weather when third, beaten 5l off 64 last time. Effective at 7f and acts on good ground, though prefers some cut. In good heart and should go well again. Won at Ayr (7f) in September; 4lb higher today and comfortably held in third twice since.
7th	5 7th (5) (33/1 -175%) Coconut Bay	33 33/1(-175%)	(5) Coconut Bay 33/1, Again below form when beaten 9l in a handicap at Catterick last time. Trainer in form. Effective over 7-8f and acts on a sound surface. Has a bit to prove on recent evidence. Latest win was in July; 1lb lower today, as she's not fired on her last three starts.
8th	12 8th (12) (22/1 -22%) Martin's Brig	22 22/1(-22%)	(12) Martin's Brig 22/1, Again below form and found little when beaten 10l in an 8f handicap at Newcastle last time. Effective at 7-8f and acts on soft and good to firm. Needs to bounce back returning to turf. Placed on his only two visits to Musselburgh; perked up back on turf at Redcar yesterday.
9th	3 9th (3) (12/1 -167%) Outrun The Storm	12 12/1(-167%)	(3) Outrun The Storm 12/1, Produced his best run since the summer when well placed, beaten 1 1/4l off 65 at Redcar last time. Effective at 7f and acts on good to soft and good to firm. Inconsistent in 2025 but fairly treated. The odd minor honour this term; close third under 7lb claimer latest, best recent effort.
10th	9 10th (9) (11/2 -144%) Emerald Army	5.5 11/2(-144%)	(9) Emerald Army 11/2, Back to form when dropped in trip and tried in a tongue-tie, beaten 2l off 56 over 6f at Catterick last time. Effective at 6-7f and acts on soft and good to firm. Return to this trip looks in his favour. Competitive in a first-time tongue-tie eight days ago; 2lb below his last winning mark.
4	4 \|PU\| (4) (9/1 +36%) John L Sullivan	9 9/1(+36%)	(4) John L Sullivan 9/1, Won this race last year. Raced a bit wide but ran to form when beaten 5l in a handicap at Ayr last time. Blinkers go on for the first time. Effective over 7-8f, acts on good but best with cut. Mark continues to ease and tries a new headgear combination. Sole run here was win in this race 2024; build-up this term seems a lot less encouraging.

14:55 Musselburgh (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

OUTRUN THE STORM took a step back in the right direction when making the frame at Redcar and if he can improve just a little more, he might be up to taking top honours. Jkr Cobbler has finished third a couple of times since scoring at Ayr, when he had John L Sullivan back in sixth. The latter won this 12 months ago and is 3lb lower now. Monhammer has been performing well and will surely get his head back in front sooner rather than later.

This looks tricky, with more negatives than positives but maybe MONHAMMER's turn has come round again.

1	2 1st (2) (9/4 +72%) Gweedore	2.25 9/4(+72%)	(2) Gweedore 9/4, Below form when beaten 6l in a handicap at Doncaster last time; effective 7/8f, acts on soft and good; should have done better on latest outing. Now 10lb below his last winning mark and his best two efforts this year have been over C&D.
2	7 2nd (7) (3/1 +14%) U Sure Do	3 3/1(+14%)	(7) U Sure Do 3/1, Ran to form and travelled well when landing a handicap by 1 1/4l off 77 at Catterick last time; effective 6/7f, acts on soft and good; in fine form and this course should suit. Gained his second win at Catterick under Sean Kirrane last time; respected off 4lb higher.
3	10 3rd (10) (8/1 -23%) Monsieur Kodi	8 8/1(-23%)	(10) Monsieur Kodi 8/1, Ran to form and was unlucky not to get closer when beaten 3/4l off 73 over 6f at Catterick last time; effective 6f, acts on heavy, good and all-weather; been a while since tackling this trip. Ran well when co-second at Catterick eight days ago; up in grade; stamina to prove.
4	9 4th (9) (14/1 +13%) Yaaser	14 14/1(+13%)	(9) Yaaser 14/1, Again below summer level, never in it when beaten 7l in a handicap at Newcastle last time; trained by a top course trainer; usually held up; effective 6-8f, acts on any except perhaps soft; continues below best. Won over C&D in July but slow starts are a concern and he was behind U Sure Do last month.
5th	8 5th (8) (10/1 +29%) Kelpie Grey	10 10/1(+29%)	(8) Kelpie Grey 10/1, Well below form, stopping quickly down the field in a handicap at Doncaster last time; from a top course trainer; enjoys making it; effective 6-8f, acts on any; needs to bounce back. Dual winner here; below his best recently and failed to beat a rival home last time.
6th	5 6th (5) (14/1 +30%) Royalty Bay	14 14/1(+30%)	(5) Royalty Bay 14/1, Below form up in trip when finding little, beaten 9 1/4l in a handicap over 9f at York last time; off a short break; effective 6-8f, acts on good and soft; drop in trip looks a plus. Both of her wins came in novices for previous yard; drops back to 7f which may well suit.
7th	6 7th (6) (14/1 -320%) Mudamer	14 14/1(-320%)	(6) Mudamer 14/1, Improved again and found plenty when landing a handicap by 2l off 77 at Catterick last time; effective 7/8f, acts on any ground; new mark asks more but he's in fine form. Made all at Catterick on last two starts; up 6lb since the latest and steps up in grade.
8th	3 8th (3) (12/1 -20%) Bellarchi	12 12/1(-20%)	(3) Bellarchi 12/1, Scored by 3/4l off 84 here on her penultimate start; below form last time, stopping quickly; effective 7/8f, acts on any; not at best most recent, respected on earlier C&D win. Last two wins have been over this C&D but she needs to bounce back from latest AW effort.
9th	4 9th (4) (11/2 +21%) Glenfinnan	5.5 11/2(+21%)	(4) Glenfinnan 11/2, Well positioned and ran to form when fourth beaten 4 1/2l in a handicap at Newbury latest; top course jockey booked; effective 6-8f, acts on soft and good to firm; consistent, cheekpieces reapplied. Runner-up at Leopardstown in September before solid effort at Newbury; cheekpieces return.

15:28 Musselburgh (Class 3) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Mudamer won twice at Catterick in October, appreciating the drop to 7f, but the fact he is now a total of 11lb higher leaves him vulnerable. Having landed the second division of the handicap won by the former last time, U SURE DO has the potential to back that effort up after rising just 4lb. Monsieur Kodi has been knocking on the door recently and completes the shortlist along with Glenfinnan.

Having dropped 10lb below his last winning mark, GWEEDORE returns to the scene of his two best efforts this year and gets the vote.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	3 1st (3) (6/1 +33%) Quercus Robur	6 6/1(+33%)	(3) Quercus Robur 6/1, Won by 1/2l off 52 at Newcastle three starts back. Returned to form when ridden more positively and finished second, beaten 4 1/2l off 57 last time. Suited by 2m, acts on soft and good, goes well at Newcastle, though inconsistent but still well treated on old form. Won in April (2m5f) and September (2m, AW); latest start was his best form all year.
2	5 2nd (5) (5/1 +44%) Young Merlin	5 5/1(+44%)	(5) Young Merlin 5/1, Ran to about his recent level when second, beaten 12l in a 2m2f handicap at Nottingham last time. Stays 2m+, acts on good and prefers some cut; considered now down in grade and weights. Second over C&D and at Nottingham on the first and latest of his four runs for this yard.
3	6 3rd (6) (11/4 -38%) Aighear	2.75 11/4(-38%)	(6) Aighear 11/4, Won by 4l off 49 over 1m5f at Ayr two starts ago and ran to form when up in grade and trip, finishing second beaten 1/2l off 53 last time. Effective from 12f to 17f, acts on good and handles heavy or soft ground. In fine form and holds a big chance dropped in grade. In career-best form over 1m5f-2m recently in the mud, nearly completing a hat-trick.
4	8 4th (8) (22/1 -144%) Rory The Cat	22 22/1(-144%)	(8) Rory The Cat 22/1, Still below his 2024 best when third, beaten 11l, in a 1m6f handicap here last time. Effective from 12f to 16f and acts on any ground; erratic but enjoys this course. Only one glimmer this year and nearly all of those races were at this track.
5th	1 5th (1) (12/1 -85%) Reel Her In	12 12/1(-85%)	(1) Reel Her In 12/1, Too keen back on the Flat and needed the run after a break when well beaten in a handicap at Newcastle last time. Has a top course jockey, stays 14f-17f, acts on good and good to soft ground, and is on a fair mark but needs to improve markedly. One to note back here, where her Flat record is two wins and a second from four visits.
6th	4 6th (4) (5/2 +29%) Spooky Wooky	2.5 5/2(+29%)	(4) Spooky Wooky 5/2, Ran to form when stepped up in trip, closing late off a steady pace to be beaten 2l off 62 here last time. Stays 16f, acts on soft ground, and is on a workable mark, with the potential to do better. 0-5; placed in handicaps on last two starts, over C&D latest, and may have more to offer.
7th	9 7th (9) (33/1 -32%) Star Of Markinch	33 33/1(-32%)	(9) Star Of Markinch 33/1, Ran to her recent poor level when beaten 7l in a handicap here last time. Effective from 14f to 16f, acts on soft and good to soft, but a poor maiden who remains vulnerable. Second here in August and latest start (C&D) wasn't too bad; however, she's a 9yo maiden.
8th	7 8th (7) (33/1 -50%) Woodshaw	33 33/1(-50%)	(7) Woodshaw 33/1, Below form and never travelling on the ground when down the field in a 12f handicap at Hamilton most recently. Effective up to 13f, acts on good to soft, but has shown an unwilling attitude and has plenty to prove. 7l third of six over 1m4f (good to soft) on penultimate start is the straw to clutch at.
9th	2 9th (2) (15/2 +12%) Ebony Maw	7.5 15/2(+12%)	(2) Ebony Maw 15/2, Well positioned and ran to form when beaten 3l off a mark of 58 at Catterick last time. Enjoys making the running, effective from 13f to 17f, acts on good and with cut, and looks on a workable mark. Inconsistent this season; well beaten in this last year in his only race at Musselburgh.

16:03 Musselburgh (Class 6) 15f Race Class Flow

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

AIGHEAR has bounced back to form recently, with the seven-year-old beaten just half a length when bidding for a third victory in succession at Newbury. Amie Waugh rode the mare to triumph both times at Ayr earlier in the autumn and this appears to be a fine opportunity for her to get back to winning ways. Spooky Wooky chased her home in September and has since placed over C&D, which earns him respect. Quercus Robur and Young Merlin head the remainder.

Aighear may be a starting point to calculations but SPOOKY WOOKY (nap) can take another step forward to get off the mark.

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.
