Short-head winner of a handicap hurdle over an extended 2m at Bangor (good) early last month. Had wind surgery since disappointing at Kelso (2m, good) subsequently.

Age: 4|  Weight: 11-5| J: Blair Campbell(5)| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR:  108| D
16/1
Struggled over hurdles in recent times including when beaten 21L at Lingfield (2m, heavy) a fortnight ago. Debuting for a new yard.

Horse silk
An Fear Ciuinp19
Age: 7|  Weight: 11-4| J: Dale Irving(3)| T: R M Smith| OR:  107| D
17/2
Winner of a 2m handicap hurdle at Kelso (good) last month. Held on both subsequent starts and looks in the grip of the handicapper at present.
4
Horse silk
Icefallp30
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-4| J: C R King| T: T D Easterby| OR:  107
7/1
Good second in a 2m maiden hurdle at Hexham (good) in September and placed in novice company since. Interesting runner off a mark 5lb lower than when making his handicap debut last time.
5
Horse silk
Bagan26
Age: 4|  Weight: 11-4| J: James Nixon(7)| T: T R Gretton| OR:  107
14/1
Shown ability in five starts so far including when beaten 14L at Fakenham (2m, good) in a maiden hurdle last time. Interesting to see how he fares on handicap debut.
6
Horse silk
Outcrop25
Age: 4|  Weight: 11-4| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Candlish| OR:  107
4/1
Built on a promising return from a break when winning over 2m1f at Sedgefield (good) earlier this month. Has to defy an 8lb rise if he's to follow up.
7
Horse silk
Ballynantyt19
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-2| J: Lucy Alexander| T: N W Alexander| OR:  105
28/1
AW maiden winner on the Flat but has failed to figure in four starts over hurdles so far. Probably best watched on handicap bow.
8
Horse silk
Astute Boyt19
Age: 4|  Weight: 10-13| J: S Mulqueen(3)| T: R M Smith| OR:  102
22/1
Fair fourth in a novice hurdle over 2m at Kelso (good) on debut for this yard last month. Well held on subsequent handicap debut however.
9
Horse silk
Richard Straussp27
Age: 4|  Weight: 10-6| J: A Nicol| T: P A Kirby| OR:  95| D
7/2
Rewarded for some consistent Flat efforts this year when winning by a neck over 2m at Catterick (good-to-soft) last month. Worth a check in the market on his return to hurdles.

Forecasts

Val Mome (5/2), Richard Strauss (7/2), Outcrop (4/1), Icefall (7/1), An Fear Ciuin (17/2), Bagan (14/1), Max Liebermann (16/1), Astute Boy (22/1), Ballynanty (28/1)

14:25 Musselburgh - 26 November 2018 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

ICEFALL is taken to put a disappointing handicap debut behind him to take a competitive handicap hurdle contest. The selection showed some fair form over hurdles prior to that and he can take this at the chief expense of last time out winner Outcrop who can finish runner-up ahead of Val Mome who represents a top yard.
  1. Icefall
  2. Outcrop
  3. Val Mome
