10/3
Fair winner over hurdles who made an encouraging start in this sphere when third of 6 in handicap here (15.8f) 33 days ago. Capable of better, especially now back up in trip. Big shout.

Runner-up at Newcastle last April but little encouragement to be gleaned from two outings this season. Has something to prove.

11/2
Ex-pointer who has finished runner-up 4 times over hurdles. Not at best last 2 starts back from 6 months off but could be the sort to take to chasing. No forlorn hope.

9/2
C&D winner in January and possibly found the run coming too quickly when sixth of 9 in handicap at Sedgefield (19.3f) 23 days ago. Sort to bounce back.

Fair maiden hurdler who has yet to match that form in three runs over fences, jumping sketchily when seventh of 12 to Large Action in handicap over C&D 35 days ago. Others appeal more.

6/1
Fair winning hurdler in 2021. Yet to translate that form in three runs over fences, cheekpieces on when remote fourth of 12 to Large Action in handicap over C&D 35 days ago. Needs a big step forward.

Poor maiden hurdler on balance who was pulled up in handicap at Hexham (20.1f) 81 days ago. Goes chasing now with plenty to prove.

Still to get his head in front but he arrives in decent nick, third of 9 in handicap chase here (19.2f) 18 days ago. One for the shortlist.

Remains a maiden after 19 runs but he recorded a good fifth of 7 from 10 lb out of the handicap at Sedgefield (21f) 23 days ago. Considered.

Forecasts

Limerick Leader (10/3), Dr Shirocco (7/2), Large Action (9/2), Cartonne (11/2), Shoughall's Boy (6/1), Nabraska (9/1), Thunder In Milan (16/1), Devour (33/1), The Great Georgie (40/1)

15:25 Musselburgh - 5 February 2023 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

LIMERICK LEADER shaped well when third on his recent chasing bow here and is fancied to take a step forward now his stamina is drawn out more and open his account. C&D scorer Large Action rates the chief threat if, as expected, bouncing back from a below-par Sedgefield showing last time out. Dr Shirocco and Nabraska appeal as the duo best equipped to fight it out for minor honours.
