Musselburgh Race 1 - Irish Ebf Mdn Stakes (Gbb Race)
THE MEAN FIDDLER (3) Placed 2nd last run at Ripon but up in class. Has run into the money at every start this campaign. Good enough for this and worth a bet . CALEF (5) Unsighted last time at Chepstow. Capable of bouncing back but matched against a stronger field. Has shown early pace in races to date. Right in this. PAPHOS (1) First start at the races 2yo by Kodi Bear for David M Carroll. Respect the betting. BY JOVE GRACE (4) Average effort when 5th last start at Ripon but will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Change in trainer but matched against tougher rivals. Could go well at this level.

At $51.00 below par performance when 11th last time at Thirsk but having second career run. Up against a higher level of opposition. This will pose a challenge.

Odds of $9.50 and underwhelming when 5th last start at Ripon but drawn beautifully. First start for a new trainer but facing stiffer opposition. Follow the money.

Failed to threaten last time at Chepstow. Capable of bouncing back but racing in stronger company. Shows good early pace. Competitive type.

Odds of $81.00 and only fair when 5th last start at Beverley but was on debut last time. Rising in class. Hard to have.

At $51.00 mediocre performance when 8th last run at Ayr but fitter for debut run. Racing for a new trainer but challenged by a tougher grade. Cannot recommend as a betting proposition.

Back after a break. Started $34.00 and underperformed when 8th last start at Catterick but having second race start. Gets a favourable draw. Facing a stronger group of contenders. Chances are slim.
