Musselburgh 2.40
Musselburgh 2.40. Handicap Hurdle 3 miles - Class 4
At the head of the market are 3 big dangers but I have concerns about all 3 sufficient to think that they are not great value. Trongate and First Account are not entirely proven at this Trip and in softer than usual Going here that could be their downfall. Buckled is a real danger too but not yet got any consistent form on Going this soft.
There may therefore be value elsewhere ARTHURS SECRET is well handicapped and has some good Course form. Not in great form recently though and I can't be confident enough for a Tip or a Tracker but a big run would be no surprise and if it's double figure odds at the off a bit of loose change would not be a bad investment.
The one I really like today is DADSINTROUBLE who should now be spot on after 3 runs this season. Showed improved form last time in a better race at Warwick and despite top weight is well handicapped and both the slight drop in trip, easier track and soft Going are big pluses. Will be very disappointing if this is not it's best run of the season so far.
TIP - DADSINTROUBLE
