Harswell Dandy bids to continue her excellent run of Musselburgh form in the Join Racing TV Now Nursery Handicap.

Jointly-trained by Roger Fell and Sean Murray, she finished third in a course and distance seller last month before scoring in maiden company at the East Lothian venue just under three weeks ago.

She makes her handicap debut from a mark of 65, which isn’t too harsh given that her form figures so far read 223331.

The opposition include recent Catterick nursery scorer Wondrous Ways and top-weight Kitten In The Sky.

With £15,000 up for grabs, the feature race is the Support Musselburgh Athletic FC Handicap and last month’s Catterick rivals Le Beau Garcon and Khabib clash again.

They were first and second on that occasion with the former just prevailing by half a length and there shouldn’t be much between them again.
