Musselburgh Race 4 - Dropkicks Split The G Nursery
DEPUTY VICE (4) can step forward from his nursery debut at Ayr last time (1200m) when home 4.5L sixth. Should encounter better conditions here coupled with an extra journey. Consider. INNS AND OUT (8) partners again with Jason Hart for the first time since they combined for a course and distance maiden success in August. One to consider. ROCK STEADY BEAT (3) got off the mark among selling company at Redcar (1200m) a fortnight ago. This looks within range so capable of measuring up again. Little went right for SOVEREIGNS HIGH (6) when sixth at Chester (1400m) recently. Long distance traveller worth keeping an eye on.

Comes here off a 46-day let-up. Most recently 5th of 13 at Ripon on August 15 over 1600m, 7 len behind Coral Cove carrying 60.5kg at $26. The run before that raced on the pace before fading to run last of 8 at York on July 24 over 1400m, 13 len behind Coral Cove with 60.5kg at $3.80. Capable of sharp improvement.
