1523371 1 6 3YO plus 17:30 Musselburgh 22 Jul 2025 Lucas Ice Cream Apprentice Handicap £3,664 1m 208y Good null Weak BALMERINO flew home late to be denied by just under a length over 7f at Ayr last time, shaping as if this step back up in trip would be a good move. Lucinda Russell's charge competes off an unchanged rating and could take a step forward to record his first career success. Scarriff is a previous course winner who is 2lb lower than his latest sixth at Pontefract and can go well, while Elvetham is another to keep an eye on. BALMERINO finished as if wanting further than the 7f last time out so this step up in trip should suit, he was second that day from what looks to be a lenient opening mark. Scarriff is next best, her sole win has been at the track and wasn't far away last time over 1m despite a wide trip so could challenge here. Elvetham is an interesting one for trainer Michael Bell on UK / stable debut, he looks to be on a workable opening mark and a change of scenery could spark something.
