Musselburgh Race 1 - Ebf Restricted Mdn Stakes (Gbb Race)
VEGASMILE (3) makes his debut by Lucky Vega and is a half-brother to five-time winner Fleetfoot from a family with black-type form. Strong newcomer who sets the standard. SWEET IRIS (7) finished second in a stronger York novice before weakening to fifth tackling 1400m at Carlisle on latest appearance. Main danger. GORDONS GIRL (9) debuts by Cracksman out of the Kodi Bear mare Midday Martini and represents a yard capable with juveniles. Makes some appeal. WILD ORCHID (10) showed early speed from a wide draw before fading to seventh attempting 1400m at Lingfield and can improve with that experience. Not discounted.

Lining up for just third start. At debut, ran second last in a small field at this track on July 31 over 1400m, 13 len behind Gerry's Darling carrying 60.5kg at $7.50. Last start eased back early on 6th of 9 at Ayr on August 8 over 1200m, 9 len behind Roman Crystal with 60.5kg at $34. Looking elsewhere.

Comes off a 32 day let-up. Most recently 9th of 12 at Thirsk on July 24 over 1200m, 6 len behind Lady Dublin with 60kg at $6.50. Before that struggled in the run home; 6th of 10 at Newcastle All Weather on June 25 over 1400m, 9 len behind Lord Ragnar carrying 60.5kg at $9. Worth including.
