Musselburgh Race 2

British Stallion Studs Ebf Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)

Prize Money: $46,125

FAITH IN FLORENCE (5) was defeated 0.5L attempting 1200m at Newbury on latest appearance after leading until the final strides. Down to 1000m and receipt of nearly 6kg from BARNABY RUDGE strengthen her claims and she sets the standard. BARNABY RUDGE (1) remains unbeaten after two outings over 1000m. Most recently scored by 0.5L at Newcastle but carries a 3.5kg penalty. Main danger. MINSTER MAN (2) recovered from a slow start to finish 1.75L second tackling 1000m at Yarmouth on debut. Makes some appeal. SOD HALL LANE (4) is a noted debutant for Declan Carroll by Blue Point out of Hello Bangkok. Not discounted.

At debut, eased back early on 2nd in a small field at Great Yarmouth on July 23 over 1000m, 1.75 len behind Evenfall carrying 59kg at $11. Likely to measure up again with a repeat performance.

First-starter by Blue Point out of Hello Bangkok purchased for EUR € 95,000 (Goffs - IRE 2025 Orby Book 1). Profiles nicely and is worth keeping safe.

Raced twice to date. At debut, 4th of 10 at Great Yarmouth on June 18 over 1200m, 2 len behind Blue Flight with 58kg at $10. Last start gave a sight but was run down late 2nd of 11 at Newbury on July 17 over 1200m, 0.5 len behind Al Samsama carrying 58kg at $2.30. Tough to beat.
