Key events and winners
It was a productive afternoon at Musselburgh on 7 August, with Paul Mulrennan among the big movers — partnering both Samra Star and Minster Man to victory and playing a leading role in Linda Perratt’s double on the card. Samra Star tracked the leaders before coming clear inside the final furlong to beat Falcon Nine by 1¼ lengths in the 13:50. Minster Man dominated the 14:20 novice, making all and holding a 1¾-length advantage at the line. Bella Lucia produced a determined finish to land the 14:50 nursery, while Jonny Concrete powered clear in the Cuvee Louise Gold Cup to score readily. Tiva stayed on to deny Woohoo by a neck in the Champagne Pommery Brut Royal, Sure And Stedfast edged Roc De Fer by three-quarters of a length in the Brodie Handicap, and Monhammer rounded off the day for Linda Perratt with a clear success in the finale. Two declared runners were withdrawn on the day (Tommy’s Promise and Maui Breeze were self-certified/off feed).

Racecourse Guide
Racing has taken place at Musselburgh since 1777 when it was run by the Royal Caledonian Hunt. The current site was established in 1816 and the course has out-lasted neighbouring Lanark and Bogside which were forced to close in 1977 and 1965 respectively. A dual-purpose, seaside course, it attracts the best trainers from the north and many from the south too – a real Scottish gem within the community.
Musselburgh is a sharp, right handed track with a straight five furlong course. The turns are very sharp, despite the investment in re-cambering the track in recent years. The course certainly favours sharper horses that like to race up with the pace, especially so on faster ground. A big, long-striding horse can find the leaders gone beyond recall by the time it hits top gear in the home straight.
Dining, Hospitality & Facilities
Musselburgh provides award-winning facilities in a five-star visitor attraction with fine transport links and free parking. They range from the Epperston and Queen Stand Restaurants to the Queen Stand Private Boxes. The Bistro offers a relaxed dining experience with traditional home-cooked style meals with most ingredients sourced from local suppliers.
Café 1816 has been refurbished and offers stylish surroundings with a choice of sandwiches, panini, soup, baking and patisserie. The Pommery Champagne Bar, Dizzy’s Bar and Freddies Bar are among the popular drinking venues. Quality food and drink outlets are located around the racecourse and beside the picnic areas.
Musselburgh racecourse is approximately six miles to the east of Edinburgh. The nearest train station is Wallyford Station on the Edinburgh Waverley to North Berwick line with a shuttle bus operating on race days.

The Effect of the Draw
The draw bias at Musselburgh can vary with the distance and going. On good or fast ground, low numbers have a slight advantage over five furlongs but the reverse is true over seven furlongs where high numbers are favoured. However, there appears to be no draw bias over the longer distance when the going is soft.
