Diego Du Charmil makes it count at Musselburgh

Diego Du Charmil made the long journey from Paul Nicholls' stables in Somerset worthwhile when taking the lion's share of the £50,000 in the bet365 Scottish County Handicap Hurdle at Musselburgh. Conditional Harry Cobden rode a confident race on the five-year-old, who weaved through the pack to take the lead at the final flight.Diego Du Charmil (5-1) still had plenty in the tank to win by five lengths from Dominada.Traditional Dancer was four and a half lengths away in third. Forth Bridge staked his claim for honours at the Cheltenham Festival when carrying The Queen's colours to victory in the bet365 Scottish Triumph Hurdle Trial. The Charlie Longsdon-trained four-year-old repeated his previous course-and-distance success as he outpointed Irish raider Warp Factor in determined fashion.Noel Fehily set out to make all the running on Forth Bridge (9-1), but he was headed by Fidux at the third-last flight.That horse's challenge proved short-lived, though, as Forth Bridge soon regained the advantage and held Warp Factor by three-quarters of a length.Project Bluebook, the 6-4 favourite, was third.Forth Bridge was halved in price to 25-1 for the JCB Triumph Hurdle at the Festival in March.Fehily completed a double when producing Dancing Shadow late on the scene to land the inaugural running of the bet365 Edinburgh National Handicap Chase.Fehily played a patient game on Victor Dartnall's eight-year-old in the extended four-mile stamina test.Beeves set the early pace from Five In A Row and Azure Fly before the latter went on after the fifth-last fence.There were plenty in with chances, including the well-backed Azure Fly and Grand National veteran Alvarado, but it was Dancing Shadow (6-1) who won the day by two and a half lengths.Gonalston Cloud was second and Azure Fly third.
