Musselburgh Saturday review and replays

Ridden by P J McDonald and trained by Adrian Keatley, he gamely held off Aimeric by head.

“He’s super genuine and this time last week he was running in the Scottish Champion Hurdle at Ayr,” the winning jockey said. “He took me everywhere I wanted to go and credit must go to Adrian and his team.

“He’s got three wins over hurdles and that’s now six on the Flat. Last year was superb and he went so close for me when second in the Ebor.”

Jim Goldie’s American Affair showed a devastating turn of foot to land the Virgin Bet Daily Price Boosts Scottish Sprint Cup under Paul Mulrennan.

The 7/2 chance was switched round a wall of horses to power home three-quarters of a length ahead of JM Jungle.

“I think he’s a bit stronger this year and he can’t half quicken,” Goldie reported. “Paul was trapped on the rail and he had to come four wide but he got him out of trouble no problem.

“He was favourite for last year’s Ayr Gold Cup but he ran too free. I think he’s more of a five-furlong horse and has too much speed for the Ayr Gold Cup - we might even look at the Group One King Charles 111 Stakes at Royal Ascot over the minimum trip.”

Charlie Johnston-trained Thunder Wonder stormed home under Joe Fanning in the Livescore Bet Best Odds Daily Royal Mile Handicap.

“He ran well on his comeback at Southwell and built on that today,” Fanning said. “He’s quickened again when they came to us and won well in the end.”
