Musselburgh Placepot picks: Paul Kealy has first and last race bankers

Only four go in Musselburgh's opener (1.15), but looks the banker for Placepot purposes.

Progressive on the Flat until her stalls aversion got the better of her (was rated 94), she hacked up on her hurdles debut and is rated as Listed class by her trainer Brian Ellison.

The well-in has to be included in the next (1.45) and is also selected after shaping better on his first run after a wind operation three weeks ago. He is well-treated on his Flat form too.

is weighted to go close in the third (2.20) based on his effort before being brought down in the same race last year, while stablemate remains very capable despite his higher mark and has also been laid out for this.

In the next (2.55) the strong-travelling , second at Kelso last time, ought to get in on the action even if he fails to win. couldn't handle the atrocious ground in the same race at Kelso (going was changed to heavy afterwards) and is worth another chance back on a track he handles well.

The strongest piece of form in the next (3.30) looks to be the course-and-distance handicap in which and fought out the finish and at least one of them should be in the firing line again, while was a big eyecatcher at Sedgefield last time and I'm happy to go with three in this competitive heat.

That just leaves the novice handicap hurdle (4.05) and while there are only seven runners, I'm pretty sure topweight will be hard to beat.
