The Racing Post deliver their verdict in Scotland on Wednesday.

Musselburgh-Racecourse

12:50 Iolani

The front-runner Cousin Oscar can make a bold bid now back over hurdles, while the lightly raced 5yo Diamond State reappears with Lucinda Russell’s horses running well, but preference is for the consistent IOLANI, who won over C&D in March and has been in good form of late. Cousin Oscar is feared most.

NEW TO PADDY POWER?

13:20 Broadway Joe (NAP)

The lightly raced 7yo BROADWAY JOE (nap), who has won here over hurdles, scored in good style on his recent chase debut at Kelso and can follow up. Millarville has finished second on two of her last three starts, and the first-time blinkers (replacing cheekpieces) may be a plus, but she’s 0-9 over fences and perhaps the main threat will come from the chasing newcomer Shaws Bridge who was in good form over hurdles when last seen.

13:50 Collingham

Donald McCain continues to enjoy a fantastic autumn and hurdling newcomer COLLINGHAM is taken to make a winning start for the yard, having scored on his last two Flat runs in France. The next on the list is We Still Believe whose Wetherby third represents the best hurdle form in the line-up.

14:20 Gouet Des Bruyeres

This doesn’t look the strongest of races and the in-form GOUET DES BRUYERES can make it two out of three for the season. Fourth Of July looks his main threat.

14:50 Wakool

Nick Alexander’s WAKOOL returns from five months off but he has a striking record of 19332213 in handicaps and his latest clear third at Perth was behind a well-handicapped subsequent winner. This 5yo is a big player if he can pick up where he left off and he gets the vote ahead of Wynford, who has had a highly productive time under both codes since July and is on a workable mark back in this sphere. The other one on the shortlist is Red Missile, who still has potential over hurdles and looks interesting upped to this trip.

Musselburgh-Racecourse

15:20 The Ferry Master

An interesting little race in which a case can be made for all of the runners. Preference is for the THE FERRY MASTER, who was progressive last season and was a good fourth in the Scottish National when last seen. Do Not Disturb is thriving and is an obvious danger, while Generator City won over Carlisle’s stiff 3m2f last time and is next on the list.

15:50 Herewegohoney

This could be between rules newcomers HEREWEGOHONEY and Ramble West, who have both shown promise in points. Herewegohoney won on her debut in May and gets the nod on her first run since being bought for £62,000.
