Musselburgh Race 3

Bernard Hunter Mbl Cranes Nursery

Prize Money: $14,760

AMANTHA (3) opened her account with a shoulder success over course and distance last month. Narrowly denied the double next time when slightly up in trip on Beverley nursery debut. Ticks plenty of boxes and is considered. TIGER IN THE TREE (7) went top three for the first time running 2L third earlier this month at Leicester. Hold claims in retained cheekpieces if there is a market lead. BIGALO (1) is well-in on the figures following a rallying 0.5L second at Catterick nine-days-ago. In the mix. BOUTBLUMMINTIME (2) is open to plenty of improvement now entering nursery company and requires a market check.

Form hard to fault. Last start 2nd in a small field at Beverley on July 4 over 1500m, nose behind Emerald Bay carrying 61kg at $3. The start before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a nose at this track June 22 over 1400m defeating Liveadream with 57kg at $12. Will take plenty of beating.

Last start sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 10 at Ayr on July 6 over 1400m, 4.5 len behind Redline carrying 56.5kg at $51. Before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 10 at Carlisle on June 15 over 1200m, 4 len behind Redline with 58kg at $67. Will need further improvement to trouble these.

Most recently ran second last of 12 at Thirsk on July 24 over 1200m, 7 len behind Lady Dublin carrying 59kg at $5. The race before that tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 2nd in a small field at this track on June 22 over 1400m, nose behind Amantha with 56.5kg at $4. Unlikely to threaten.

Recent form sound. Most recently tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 10 at Leicester on July 14 over 1400m, 2 len behind Emerald Bay with 52kg at $9.50. The run before that 3rd in a small field at Beverley on July 4 over 1500m, 1.75 len behind Emerald Bay with 57.5kg at $21. Capable of fighting out the finish again.
