Ayr Race 2 - Menabrea Restricted Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
SEA MIRAGE (2) Nice run when 2nd last start at Hamilton and drawn beautifully. Likely to be well placed early. Will have to carry extra weight. Classy enough for this field and is one of the major players. ALFA BLUEBURD (3) 2yo debutant by Persian Force for Ivan Furtado. Watch the betting. QUEEN BEE FOR YOU (7) Initial appearance 2yo by Kodiac for trainer Stella Barclay & Tony Culhane. Watch early betting. MUVE ON (5) Looked good when 3rd last time at Beverley. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race.

Ran on when 2nd beaten by 1 1/4L last start at Yarmouth and was a debutant last start. Hard to see this being competitive today.

In the money when 2nd last start at Hamilton and can save some energy from the draw. Should race on the speed. Will be there at the business end.

Gave away some ground when 10th last run at Leicester. Will be positive in the run early. Limited possibility.

Odds of $81.00 and below standard effort when 10th last run at Beverley but having second race start. Prefers to settle towards the tail. Drawn nicely. Will need to run very well.
