Musselburgh Race 3

Edinburgh Rugby 1872 Cup Novices' Handicap Chase (Gbb Race)

Stake: $21,033

SLEEPING SATELLITE (2) is beginning to prove consistent with two wins and a runner-up effort past three attempts including a 1.75L victory contesting a Catterick handicap chase last time. Major player. DISGUISEDLIMIT (1) is also producing great form with one win and five placings from six most recent appearances. Placed second making chase debut at Newcastle and may go one better. DUNNET HEAD (3) disappointed slightly providing seasonal return when ninth in a Carlisle handicap hurdle. Managed to run third on latest chasing start. Will be thereabouts. ROSSBRIDGE (4) could improve on a fifth at Kelso.

Impressive in recent runs. Last run favourite; won by 1.75 len Catterick on November 21 over 3800m defeating William Cody with 70.5kg at $3.30 in a steeplechase. The start before that; finished second of 9 starters at Bangor-On-Dee on October 27 over 3500m, 9 len behind Neigh Botha carrying 76kg at $4. Worth following up.
