Longshot
PAPER PROMISE (12.45 Musselburgh)
This eight-year-old came back from a long break to run a solid fourth at Kelso 15 days ago.
She looked in need of that effort and should be a good deal fitter now. The handicapper has dropped her 2lb and she has winning form at the track.

Each way thief
KENDERGARTEN KOP (12.30 Lingfield)
Adam Kirby takes over on this five-year-old who won well on his last run over course and distance in November.
He returns just 2lb higher in the weights and can give another good account.
HANDY HOLLOW (1.45 Musselburgh)
Donald McCain sends this seven-year-old back to Scotland after he went close at Kelso last time out.
He swerved around at the start, which didn’t help, and he finished off well over a similar trip. That stamina will be an asset and the first-time cheekpieces can keep him on the straight and narrow.
