20/1 and had a second breathing operation, below form when eighth of 9 in handicap at Thirsk (8f, good to firm) 12 days ago. Mark eases but probably best to look elsewhere.

15:50 Musselburgh - 25 August 2021 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

KING OF TONGA hasn't won for quite some time now but, having dropped to a career-low mark and with the usual headgear left off, David O'Meara's charge turned in his best effort of the season to finish runner-up at this track 5 days ago. He's taken to go a place better here dropped slightly in trip. Hajjam gets the vote to chase the selection home, ahead of Oso Rapido.

  1. KING OF TONGA (IRE)
  2. HAJJAM
  3. OSO RAPIDO (IRE)
