Racing Preview - The Racing TV Raceday 2024

Linda Perratt is hoping that history will repeat itself with Sixcor and Chinese Spirit at Musselburgh on Tuesday.

The East Kilbride raiders won on consecutive days at the East Lothian venue twelve months ago and the pair try to bag the same races again.

Sixcor is first up in the second division of the Bob Veitch 90th Birthday Handicap with Chinese Spirit in action half an hour later in division one of the Lens Self Storage 60th Anniversary Handicap, which was staged 24 hours later last August.

It promises to be one of the busiest afternoons of the year for Perratt as she is set saddle a total of eight runners.

The card begins with Alice Haynes trying to uphold her impressive Musselburgh strike-rate with Stanley Swagger in the Racing TV Restricted Maiden Stakes.  

Formerly trained in Ireland by Jim Bolger, Kieren’s O’Neill’s partner was making his first appearance for the Newmarket trainer (and first since being gelded) when third in a similar race at Hamilton Park a fortnight ago.

O’Neill has ridden just one winner at the track while Haynes has enjoyed four winners from her nine previous runners (44 per-cent).
