Musselburgh Race 2 - British Stallion Studs Ebf Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
BARNABY RUDGE (1) Got the upper hand late when winning last run at Newcastle. Hasn't put a foot wrong this campaign with 2 wins from as many runs. This race looks suitable and is hard to overlook. FAITH IN FLORENCE (5) Was competitive when 2nd last time at Newbury and can find a nice position from the draw. Capable of taking this out. SOD HALL LANE (4) Career debut 2yo by Blue Point for David M Carroll and has minimal work to do from the draw. Follow the money. MINSTER MAN (2) Came in 2nd last start at Yarmouth and having second career run. Include in chances.

Started $7.00 and average at best when 6th last run at Hamilton. Should race on the speed. Very unlikely to cause an upset.
