Musselburgh Race 3 - Copper Blossom Ladies Day Nursery Selling Hcp
BIGALO (2) finished second on his last two starts. Most recently beaten 0.5L tackling course and distance after leading inside the final 200m. He is 1.5kg better off with BLUESTONE LADY (3) and sets the standard. The second mentioned came from the rear to win that contest by 0.5L and remains proven under these conditions. Main danger. AMANTHA (4) finished 5.25L third in the same race but had previously won tackling track and trip. Makes some appeal. BELLA LUCIA (5) managed to keep on to finish 2.25L third over 1200m at Southwell and now makes her handicap debut. Step up in journey might suit and she is not discounted.

At the latest run ran second last of 12 at Newbury on July 17 over 1400m, 12 len behind Fuel The Jet with 57.5kg at $201. The start before that ran last of 11 at Kempton Park All Weather on June 29 over 1400m, 41 len behind Duke Of Burgundy with 62kg at $12. Doubt he will feature in this on that recent run of form.

Form hard to fault. Last start 3rd of 7 at this track on July 31 over 1400m, 5.5 len behind Bluestone Lady carrying 60.5kg at $5.50. The run before that 2nd in a small field at Beverley on July 4 over 1500m, nose behind Emerald Bay carrying 61kg at $3. Worth including.
