Ayr Race 6 - British Stallion Studs Ebf Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
The market should be revealing regarding GOLDEN SOUK (3) who may come out on top. Karl Burke trains this well-bred son of Dubawi a full-brother to a smart performer and could prove up to making a winning debut here. AMIR LEHBAB (1) lost absolutely nothing in defeat both starts to date and arrives having gone down narrowly to a subsequent Listed winner at Doncaster. Sets the standard here for a top yard going great guns and holds very obvious claims. GOLD KEY (4) commands respect on the back of a narrow second trying 1400m at Thirsk recently. Newcomer TYRRHENIAN THUNDER (7) would be interesting if strong in the betting.

Raced two times to date. At debut, 9th of 14 at Newcastle All Weather on July 25 over 1200m, 4.5 len behind Asander with 59kg at $23.

Was as a despised roughie at debut, ran second last of 8 at Ripon on August 31 over 1200m, 13 len behind Travellers Girl carrying 58kg at $51. Should improve but still looking elsewhere.

Lining up for just third start. At debut, ran last in a small field at Hamilton Park on August 21 over 1700m, 20 len behind Pikachu with 58kg at $19. Second-up ran last of 11 at York on September 6 over 1400m, 10 len behind Mezzo Forte carrying 58kg at $301. Prepared to overlook.
