Musselburgh Race 1

Dropkicks Split The G Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)

Stake: $14,336

FARANDAWAY (2) underperformed when eleventh over 1200m at York last time. Better judged on his third at the same venue prior. Leading contender. DONALD (1) recorded a sound 2.75L fourth tackling 1000m at Ripon on latest appearance. Main danger. In a small field KOMORKIS (3) cannot be ruled out following a 6L fifth attempting a 1200m Newcastle AW contest.

Lining up for just third start. At debut, 4th in a small field at Leicester on July 23 over 1000m, 4.5 len behind Our Planet with 60.5kg at $21. Last start in a small field at Ripon on August 4 over 1000m, 2.75 len behind Goyard with 57.5kg at $19. Sure to be competitive with so few opponents.

Second run back. First-up after 14 months 5th of 9 at Newcastle All Weather on August 29 over 1200m, 6 len behind Judicature with 56.5kg at $4.50. Previously second-up second last in a small field at Pontefract on June 23 2024 over 1200m, 5.5 len behind Selection with 58kg at $4.50. Hard to enthuse despite the small field.
