Edinburgh Gin Seaside Handicap

Raced only at 6f so far, winning at Kempton (AW) in April and narrowly denied at Windsor (good to firm) the following month; should be just as effective at 5f and is open to improvement now tackling a handicap for the first time; has to be respected.

Showed a useful level of ability in six runs for Karl Burke last year, but she was never a factor in a big field at York (66-1) on her reappearance; needs to make a big step forward from that.

Both his wins have come over 5f, and he should be suited by today's drop back to the minimum trip after fading into third at Doncaster (6f) three weeks ago; each-way claims.

Off the mark after four placed efforts when pulling clear when one other in novice at Catterick (5f, good) two weeks ago; that was his first run after seven months off and he won going away; retains potential now moving into handicaps and he's high on the list.

All three runs over 5f at Newcastle; easily landed the odds in maiden when last seen in March; that's weak form but he's a promising gelding with a useful sprint pedigree and it's unlikely he's reached his limit just yet.
