In testing conditions, UK competitor Rai shot a best-of-the-day 74 at Luffness New, while Gautier from France was the top girl after a 77 over Gullane No 2.
Rai held a two-shot lead over Jake Shearpoint in the boys' Under-14 event, while Gautier's effort earned her a one-shot cushion in the girls' under-13 section over Aimee Wilson.
In the girls' Under-14 event, Amelia Taylor, representing the UK, shot an 82 to lead by two shots from US challenger Jacquelyn Eleey.
At Craigielaw, the best score of the day was a splendid 72 from the UK's Martin Maxwell in the boys' Under-11s. Calum Hill, a member at Tantallon, was the leading Lothians competitor at the end of the first day after an 81 in the boys' Under-13 event at Luffness New.
Alexander Wilson from Edinburgh shot an 82 over the same course, one better than Duncan McLean and William Kerr.
In the girls' events, Lara Frostwick from Gullane had a 99 in the Under-14s section, while, over nine holes at Kilspindie, Charlotte Munro shot 46. Seher Kaur Atwal had a hole-in-one at the 162-yard 15th on Gullane No.3.
