Nice one, might have a wee trip on Sunday to if I have a good day tomorrow! Depends how bad the hangover is too as it's a stag doo im on, ha ha!

Nice blog you have there Clyde. Just feel that HAMISH may stuggle to overcome it's penalty.

My thoughts below:

MUSSELBURGH

2.10

Hard to judge Maidens so early on in the season and tend to stick to proven Trainers / Jockeys. JUST PAST ANDOVER will be the freshest in the field after allready having a run, however going to opt with Ryan & Makin onboard JORDANSTOWN. Ryan has been bangin out the winners the last few days so hopefully the trend continues tomorrow.

Selection - JORDANSTOWN

2.45

HAMISH MCGONAGAL is the form horse and the one to beat however runs off a rating of 114 which would be the highest it has won off. Im going to opt for the experienced 10 year old in the field BORDERLESCOTT who is back down to a winable mark. Only had one visit to MUSSELBURGH back in 2008, which he won over the exact same conditions as this race. Same CLASS, DISTANCE, RATING & FIELD SIZE. Has a handy low draw and goes at a decent price.

Selection -BORDERLESCOTT - (NB)

3.20

FAHEY will have a strong say in who wins this one as he trains 4 of the 12 runners. PRIME EXHIBIT looks to be his best of them and he has said that they have been aiming for this race. Only lost out by a length and half LTO and has won off higher marks previously. LAYLAS DANCER is probably the best of the rest to look out for and was very unlucky LTO when having to be switched close home, well Handicapped and has a good shout.

Selection - LAYLAS DANCER

3.50

Despite a dissapointing run LTO CRAVAT looks like a good sort. Won 2 of his last 3 races and the drop in class from 1 to 2 will obviously suit. BRONZE ANGEL will be one of the dangers after winning it's last 2 outings while staying on well in the process. KICKINGTHELILLY looks good E/W value after racking up a 3 timer in lower class company before falling short in class 1 event LTO.

Selection - CRAVAT

4.25

Looking no further than PROHIBITION for this one. 2 from 2 this year and has went in off higher ratings previously. CABAL has been going well but will have to much to do under it's 3rd succesive penalty. SELDOM also has a squeak.

Selection - PROHIBITION

5.00

Another Maiden in which TORERO comes into it off a decent debut run. Will come on for the run and may prove the only slight danger to what looks like a nailed on winner in KEYGOLD, who has been knocking at the door recently and only just failed to break its maiden tag going down by half a length LTO in a better race.

Selection - KEY GOLD

5.35

2 horses to keep an eye on at the bottom end of the Handicap include NACHO LIBRE and MONSIEUR PONTAVEN who have been going well on the all weather lately. Will be interesting to see how they perform going back to grass. However waiting till the last race for my NAP which comes in the shape of GREENHEAD HIGH - Combo of the NICHOLS is promising here who go well at Musselburgh and gets in off a great handicap rating of 62. Placed in 5 of his 6 outings this yearand knows where the winning post is. Willing to over look it's last outing due to reasons mentioned.

Selection - GREENHEAD HIGH - NAP

These are just my thoughts and are not tips. Hopefully get a couple of winners. Good luck to anyone having a stab at the GG's tomorrow.

Nice analysis.

As much as I would like to see Borderlescott win for good old times I think he is well past it.

Key Gold is getting the nod all around and should win comfortably

Ah well, not a very good day betting wise, but still had a great day!

EACH WAY today on HIGHLAND WARRIOR at 22/1, who is back on a course he runs well on.

Also keeping an eye on CAPTAIN DIMITRIOS who runs for a second day running at MUSSELBURGH after finishing 2nd yesterday. Not penalised for the effort YET and will appreciate both the drop in distance and class. HANAGAN also takes the ride which is another positive!

Get yourself along fish, lol!
