Decent fourth at Thirsk (good-to-soft) over 7f last time out but all six previous wins have come on the AW and others have a more obvious chance in this.

Misu Pete (6/1), Monsieur Jimmy (7/1), Clarabel (8/1), Mrs Angel (8/1), Jeremy's Jet (8/1), Iberica Road (8/1), Shearian (8/1), Thornaby Nash (12/1), Channel Packet (14/1), Lukoutoldmakezebak (14/1), Charlie Chaplin (14/1), African Trader (16/1), Red Charmer (20/1), Lesanti (25/1), Giant Bradley (33/1), My Distant Murphy (50/1)

MRS ANGEL ran well to finish runner-up under today's rider on handicap debut last time and with the step up in trip likely to suit she can register her first success in the concluding apprentice handicap. Misu Pete made a winning return to turf racing last time out and he can claim second while Thornaby Nash can take third on seasonal debut. .
