Gilt Edge
1.50 Ffos Las
SP forecast 7-4

Progressive sprinter at a low level and now on a hat-trick following wins over 5½f at Bath and 5f here six days ago. Has been finishing strongly, so no reason to think step back up to 6f will be a problem and more of a worry is that she's actually 2lb badly in under a 6lb penalty.

Conclusion Never rule out a filly in form, but I'd rather take her on as others looks better treated now.
