Key Points
- It’s Saturday and it’s time for another Lucky 15!
- Tune in to ITV to watch all four races!
- Four horses at great each way prices
Since September 2025, I have been posting a Lucky 15 article on a Saturday and it has become part of the furniture here at Betting.co.uk. Today I have four more horses for you across the ITV Racing action from Musselburgh and Haydock. At prices varying from 6/1 all the way up to 12/1, I feel there is plenty of value in these selections and they all have a great chance of hitting the frame, and hopefully even better!

These four horses can place or even better!
With the structure of a Lucky 15 bet and in particular, an each way one, four horses just placing can be plenty profitable enough. However, nothing beats having a winner and hopefully we can enjoy that feeling with these horses today, ideally multiple times! In this article, I’ll break down the reasoning as to why I have selected each of these four horses, so make sure you read on in order to understand my logic.
Bellarchi @ 12/1 - With 2/3 over C&D she could be our winner
The first leg of our Lucky 15 is Bellarchi for the Grant Tuer stable in the 7f Handicap. With a record of two wins from three starts over this C&D, she immediately caught my eye here. Especially as the latest win here came off a 1lb higher mark than her current one.
This grade could be tough for her but whilst her last four wins have come in Class 4 or Class 3 company, she has won in Class 2 company twice previously. Therefore, at her best, we know that she is capable. I also think that the fact she has had a prep run before coming here could be crucial as it gives her the race fitness edge over many of her rivals, who are having their first starts of the season.
Bellarchi was underwhelming on her final three starts of last season with form figures of 088. However, she had already been given a tough season by that point and I think she was ready for a break. Her latest run at a glance looks more of the same but whilst only finishing eighth, she was only beaten 3.25 lengths. That looks like the ideal stepping stone after a break before tackling this valuable race. With just 8st 4lb on her back, I could see her running a big race and hopefully from a kind draw in stall two, she can come out on top.
Secret Trix @ 10/1 - He won this race two years ago
For leg two of the Lucky 15, we head across to Haydock for some jumps action. In this 3m 0.5f Handicap Hurdle, I have sided with Secret Trix for the Olly Murphy stable. He won this race two years ago and he’s now competing off a 1lb lower mark!
Secret Trix largely lost his way after his latest victory, recording form figures of P93658972. However, the latest run looked like it was an ideal stepping stone and hinted that he’s fallen to a mark that he is ready to strike off. He has only been allocated a weight to carry here of 10st 8lb here but with talented claimer - Lewis Saunders claiming 5lb, that reduces down to just 10st 3lb. Lewis Saunders does also boast a very healthy and eye-catching strike rate for Olly Murphy with 24 winners from 105 rides (23%). If you backed all of his rides for the stable to a £1 level stake, you’d have returned a profit of +£38.20!
Interestingly, this horse has been ridden by a 7lb claimer for the last four runs with no cheekpieces on. The best of those runs came last time out, suggesting his return to winning ways was coming. Now with the 1lb lower mark, this jockey booking, the cheekpieces returning and a wind operation, in a race he won two years ago, it looks like the stars are aligning for a big run here. I have a sneaking suspicion that this has been a long term target for the horse.
Triple Trade @ 6/1 - This race has been his target all season
This race has evidently been a long term target for the Triple Trade. In November 2025, Joe Tizzard was quoted as follows:
“He will now target the middle-distance Veterans’ Final which he qualifies for in the New Year as he turns ten.”
That quote followed a win at Cheltenham over a 2m trip. He followed that up at Cheltenham the following month with a third place over 2m 0.5f. On 3rd January 2026 he stepped up in trip to 2m4f and entered into Veteran’s company for the first time where he won nicely in a small field and this race came to mind once again.
Since that win in January, we’ve seen Triple Trade back on the track twice more. However, both runs came in open handicaps and considering that, he ran massive races to finish third and fourth. He’s now 1lb lower than those two runs, he reverts back to Veteran’s company and if he puts his best foot forward, he could be a tough nut to crack here. I would certainly be shocked if barring mishaps, he didn’t finish in the first five home but he could well do better than just placing!
Jer Batt @ 6/1 - He is handicapped to strike here!
The final leg of our Lucky 15 bet today comes in the 5f Handicap at Musselburgh (15:42) and here I have landed on Jer Batt for the David & Nicola Barren stable. The piece of form that really catches the eye on this horse is the third in this last season when Jer Batt was running off a 7lb higher mark. Interestingly, if you look back at that race, Jer Batt ran a cracker, only reeled in late on. What catches the eye the most though is that the 1-2 ahead of him were American Affair and Jm Jungle who were rated 94 and 93 that day respectively. Now that pair are rated 113 and 112 respectively, so that form is exceptional. He unfortunately just bumped into two Group horses in a handicap that day!
As well as finishing third in this race last year off a higher mark, his sole other run here saw him win emphatically off a 5lb lower mark. Therefore, he clearly loves it here at Musselburgh. It is also worth noting that whilst he does sometimes improve for it, Jer Batt typically runs well the first time out too. He’s even had a hobday wind operation whilst he’s been off the track having a break, so hopefully he’ll be spot on today.
As a general rule, you want to be drawn high at Musselburgh over this 5f trip as the stands side rail is the place to be here. Therefore, he has a nice enough draw in stall nine here, as that is in the top half of the field. In terms of the steering, Saffie Osborne has been brought in today. She has had four rides for the yard to date and whilst none have won, three of the four have finished, so they clearly haven’t booked her for no reason here. Again, I can easily see him running into a place here and barring mishaps, he could well win this off the reduced mark that he has.
Could we land the full house with these four horses?
The key for me is providing value and subsequently a long term profit. Hopefully today’s selections can do exactly that in the future though. However, even just four running into the places would see us return nearly 6x our original stake. Obviously the dream is the full house of winners, which in this case would return nearly 365x the original stake.
I’d say the market has it right in that Bellarchi will find it the hardest of our four runners to win her specific race. However, I’m hopeful that she can at least run into the places and I’m hoping for better. I think the other three then have a strong chance in their respective races.
