Ayr Race 1 - Weddings At Western House Hotel Maiden Stakes (GBB Race)
RAILWAYMAN (5) may build on his encouraging debut having shaped well when 2L third at Leicester twenty two days ago. Represents leading connections and could improve with this half-brother to G1 sprinter Oxted showing his class here. MIND OVER MATTER (4) needs to bounce back. His 1.25L debut second over course and distance makes him a player and is of interest providing first start of the season. STONEACRE JOE (6) arrives after a good second at Doncaster eleven days ago. He might have more to offer. LE PUY (7) cannot be ruled out. Showed progression providing her second start thirteen days ago. More is needed however after suffering a defeat by 8L.

Was at very long odds at debut, 7th of 9 at Newcastle All Weather on April 20 over 1200m, 6 len behind Gouken carrying 62kg at $151. Fitter and can only be improved but others preferred this time.

At debut, 3rd of 13 at Leicester on April 13 over 1200m, 2 len behind Westport carrying 59kg at $7. Better for that hit-out and looks one of the main contenders.

Second-up. First start second last of 10 at Redcar on June 21 over 1220m, 14 len behind Finegans Rainbow with 59.5kg at $34. Went for a break before returning 2nd of 14 at Doncaster on April 24 over 1200m, 3.5 len behind Flight Control carrying 59kg at $101. Fitter and worth following up.
