Forecasts

Gamesome (2/1), Astraea (9/2), Vallarta (9/2), Our Place In Loule (5/1), Lord Of The Glen (11/2), Foxy Boy (7/1), Economic Crisis (25/1), Jessie Allan (40/1), Camanche Grey (40/1)

Verdict

Our Place in Loule is a standing dish here at Musselburgh, and another course specialist the veteran Economic Crisis is also worthy of consideration. However, we'll opt for the brave (and possibly the foolish) option with the devilishly difficult to win with GAMESOME. In many respects a win record of 1-46 speaks volumes, but this frustrating 8yo also clearly has a fair bit of ability within, and the hope is that the vastly experienced Paul Mulrennan can find the required gaps latest of all in a race which is certain to be run at a frenetic early pace.
